Retro is IN! And Lexus shows that with a special model for the musician MC Madlib in the form of a very special Lexus IS. Because it has a functioning one in the glove compartment Plattenspieler installed. And with this, Lexus is deliberately taking a step “back”. The feeling that every pothole becomes a dropout, as it was with the good old CD drives, is (almost) there again in this vehicle. Because the Japanese automobile manufacturer actually installed a record player in the glove compartment and calls the vehicle "Lexus IS Wax Edition". And the turntable is big enough around 12 inch washers to be able to play. Of course, the option is not intended for the series, but just a marketing gimmick. And why? Because MC Madlib just released a new single on vinyl. And that celebrated its premiere with the Lexus conversion.

Lexus IS Wax Edition unique piece!

And apparently you can even listen to the record on cobblestones. Because Lexus promises that even on bumpy roads no sound dropouts occurrence. That makes a possible motorized gyro stabilizer on the turntable. The device itself is by the way means 3D printer manufactured and with Carbon and aluminum details equipped. The unique Wax Edition remains in the possession of Lexus and is used for marketing purposes. Namely for the presentation of the latest generation of the Japanese sports sedan.

It didn't have a turntable built in, but there is an optional one 7.1 sound system with 17 speakers and together 1.800 watts of power. Indeed not in Germany. Because of poor sales figures, the IS was taken off the market in this country. If we get more information about the changes, there will of course be an update for this report.
