Sexy, Sleek, and Stunning are three words to describe the new Lexus LFA Supercar. On October 21, 2009 Lexus announced the official launch of their new, two-seat supercar. The new LFA Supercar is scheduled to go into production at the end of 2010, but the pre-sale started on the 21st of October. Only 500 units of the LFA will be produced and sold worldwide.
This past Wednesday, November 11, 2009 Eric Brooks, President of L.A. Car Connection, Inc. had the opportunity to ride in one, of three that are available in the world. Brooks sat shotgun next to professional driver, Scott Pruett when they reached a speed of 170 mph around the almost three mile racetrack. Brooks describes the experience as exhilarating. “There is nothing like this car, it truly is a one-of-a-kind.” Says Brooks.
The car has been quoted by experts, saying “The LFA is Ultra-responsive and extremely stable even when taken to the edge, the LFA creates a sense of reassurance that opens up a new world of driving emotion, exhilarating the senses to move the driver in more ways than one.”
The vehicle has several appealing features. The LFA has a newly developed 4.8-liter V10 engine. With its very compact size, (smaller than the average V8), and incomparable power, it allows for optimal power-to-weight ratio.
The transmission along with the engine is placed within the wheelbase. With optimal placement of the transmission and the fuel tank being in front of the rear axle, this sleek beauty has exceptional performance and remarkable stability.
You can find a prototype of the LFA , now on display at the 41st Tokyo Motor Show, which is open to the general public from October 24 to November 4 at Makuhari Messe in Makuhari, Chiba Prefectu.
