The Inspiration Series is a limited-edition trim that makes Lexus' fancy cars even fancier.

The headlights' lenses are smoked for added darkness, too.

There are absolutely no adjustments to the underpinnings of the LX -- this is inspiration in visual form only.

With two-row variants starting around $85,000 and three-row variants starting around $90,000, that's a whole lot of dough for some dark trim and white leather.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
