One of America's premiere new vehicle venues, the Chicago Auto Show always seems to have a theme, from last year's performance focused models, to trucks the year before that. Watch for this year's theme to develop as word of debuts like the 2013 GMC Acadia begin to leak out.
Not to be left out of the fun, Lexus is joining the Super Bowl action with an ad of its own.
The first time the company is running an ad during the big game, this 30-second spot will star the 2013 GS. Titled "The Beast," the commercial features the GS breaking free of a silver metal box, proving that "change cannot be contained." At the end of the commercial, you can see four additional containers in the background according to Lexus, these represent new models that will be revealed later this year.
"The Beast" will air during the end of the first quarter, but just watch it after the jump if you can't wait a few more days to see it.
Lexus clearly has a winner on its hands with their new 2013 GS read our review here and it appears that they didn't want to stop the customizing options with just the F Sport model. Toyota Racing Development (TRD) has come up with a lineup even more special parts and accessories for the performance variant.
Since the GS F Sport already comes with a different aero kit, 19-inch wheels and tuned suspension, it almost seems redundant that TRD would produce parts for the sportier sedan model. But surprisingly the additions are great, adding a lip kit for the front bumper, add-ons for the side skirts, a larger trunk spoiler, a rear apron and quad exhaust tips with a blue outline.
Performance upgrades are limited to a sportier suspension kit and an exhaust system for the F Sport model while TRD also offers a set of mesh-style, 19-inch wheels in a gunmetallic finish. No pricing was announced from TRD Japan and we'll also assume that these parts will work on the U.S. model.
