Lexus Gamers IS is touted as "the first vehicle designed by and for the Twitch community as the ultimate gaming space" and it was developed when popular streamer Fuslie had viewers weigh in on the featured they'd like to see. In all, more than 554,000 unique viewers joined the experience and voted to refine the exterior wrap, the custom controller and more.
The crowdsourced car boasts an exterior modified from the Lexus IS 350 F Sport and customized with an Infiltrate vinyl wrap. On the inside, the vehicle boasts a bright Neon Tokyo style and details that remind of the colorful city on a rainy night. As a vehicle built by gamers, for gamers, the Lexus Gamers IS wouldn't be complete without a custom-built gaming PC, so it includes an MSI Gaming GeForce GPU + AMD CPU in its trunk.
