ClubLexus

Club Lexus was established by Michael Kilty, a dedicated Lexus fan from Southern California. His admiration for the Lexus brand was sparked by the powerful V8 in the 2nd Generation Lexus GS. Driven by his enthusiasm for his GS and the brand itself, Mr. Kilty became one of the first to enhance his GS 400 with an ATI Supercharger. Wanting to share this thrill, he created a community for Lexus owners and enthusiasts. In 1999, Club Lexus was launched on a free message board platform called ezBoard. Thanks to one man's vision, Club Lexus has evolved into the largest and most vibrant Lexus news and enthusiast community worldwide.
