This is going to be, IMO, the most important day since the Lexus brand was formally introduced.


We have all been waiting years and now the moment is only a few hours away. This is really a once in a lifetime experience...

From what I understand the car is already sold out. Most of the larger U.S. dealers have accepted deposits to be put on the waiting list but they cannot "officially" accept them until Lexus allows them to turn in the names.

If the production run really is only 500 cars then I'm sure there are more than 500 pre-orders/deposits internationally.

The LF A was sold out before it was even on sale. Awesome, but sad.

Wow, thanks for sharing this info! So they probably will be returning deposits to some...

Wow, just WOW! That interior is stunning! It's a race car and a luxury car interior combined together . Exterior looks great as well. Those seats are mind-blowing ! That gauge cluster is stunning as well!

Cant wait for specs and all the juicy details !

The car looks so fast, so stable, so nimble on the track!

Engine note sounds viscious! 9K RPM redline confirmed!

That controlled powerslide, wow just WOW!

To be honest I am not sure how I feel about the finished front and rear ends, but this car has always been function over form so you have to respect that.

I'm excited to see the specs.
