Nürburg Titan

2009 Lexus RX350

The Nürburg Titan transforms the 2009 Lexus RX350 from a suburban luxury SUV into a relentless Nürburgring VLN endurance contender. Its aggressively widened track, expanded to 2150mm, delivers razor-sharp cornering and stability, while a multi-material carbon and titanium chassis reinforcement ensures rigidity under the most brutal race conditions. The front end is outfitted with a full-width carbon splitter, dive planes, and vented arches to optimize brake cooling, complemented by a large carbon vented hood that efficiently extracts heat from the potent twin-turbo V8 beneath.

At the rear, the stock hatch is replaced with a gullwing-style carbon twin door featuring integrated winglets directing airflow to a race-grade diffuser. An adjustable titanium-supported GT wing generates over 1000 Newtons of downforce at 300 km/h, anchoring the car firmly through high-speed corners. Set on race springs and load-sensitive dampers fixed at 60mm ride height, the Nürburg Titan rides on 19x11 inch OZ Racing Ultraleggera wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport endurance rubber, with 6-piston calipers biting down on 310mm front discs to provide tenacious braking for marathon stints at the Green Hell.
