Thanks for the link flipside. Great pics, and I really like the closeups of the exterior as I never noticed all the detail in body panels. amazing.

I am new to this thread and this is my first post regarding the LFA. I've owned several Lexus including a GS300, LX450, SC430, and I currently own an LS460L. I also own an 08 RR Phantom, a Lamborghini LP640 Roadster, an H2 and I have an LP670-SV arriving this week. On one of the other forms there is a spirited debate regarding the LFA and the actual number they will sell, "lease" in the US. I honestly don't know of anyone in my car circles who plans to jump to the LFA and I think it would be helpful if the moderators here or someone could start a list of those who actually plan to buy one, and what they currently own. While I love the brand and I've defended it many times, I have my doubts about the LFA, mostly because of the price/value, and marketing/sales methods but that's just me.

OMG!

Watching re-runs of Top gear and they waited for the track to dry out for the Ascari A10 because it was engineered and built in Britain.

Definitely a ps job from NAIAS '10. That halo marquee scrolls all the LFA's highlights.

The performance side of the Lexus display at NAIAS 2010. LS AWD w/Sport, ISC F Sport, ISF, LFA. Good, better and best! LOL

Ah, so it's a confirmed PS job then. Jalopnik made it sound like the display was a mistake by Toyota.

Neat that NAIAS display matched the graphic used on Lexus Japan's homepage. I'm still diggin' the LS Sport and it's pretty neat to see the Lexus Sport lineup maturing well.

Almost but not quite. There is no ISF in the Lexus Japan illustration of "Lexus for Passion".

It's neat to see the more angular LFA lights and contrast them with the nearby sedan/convertible lineup.

Yes, I suppose because they had four hybrids on the other side, they couldn't fit in the very excellent first true Lexus Performance model.

Besides that part. I sat inside the LS Sport recently, liked the special interior, and was really wanting a test drive to see how it compares to the regular LS, particularly since the reviews have raved about the performance. The looks, well if you get the car in black...
