Gulf Weekly Let loose on the circuit

Ebrahim K. Kanoo held an ‘experience event’ for Lexus F and Lexus F Sport owners, giving them the opportunity to drive their vehicles on the track at the Bahrain International Circuit (BIC).

It allowed them to experience the full capabilities of the F & F Sport models by testing the power, handling and responsiveness of their vehicles at maximum levels.

Senior manager of Lexus Marketing, Ayman Shehadeh, said: “These models are an unprecedented feat of performance engineering that has been forged from the asphalt up, and developed to satisfy the most demanding driving enthusiasts.

“The F stands for Fuji Speedway, where Lexus conducts much of its high-speed development. It also stands for fun, as defined by Lexus’s three key elements: response, a continuous-acceleration feeling and a sound that excites.

 “We are delighted to see that the event was so well received and definitely will be holding more thrilling Lexus events in the near future.”

Senior management, including Lexus brand manager, Isa Kanoo, and Toyota and Lexus operations manager, Khalid Kanoo, were also present at the event.

For a ‘limited time’ the powerful Lexus GS F is available for BD27,999. Mr Shehadeh added: “This is a limited time offer to give car lovers an opportunity to enjoy the exhilarating experience of owning the most powerful Lexus sedan.”

The Lexus GS F 4-door sedan boasts a 471HP 5.0-litre V8 engine with 8-Speed SPDS transmission promising ‘invigorating power and excellent response’ with added control using high-performance Brembo brakes, Lexus Torque Vectoring Differential and a race-ready cockpit.
