My Lexus LFA story at the Nurburgring
Hi, my name is Paul and i'm new here. I'm a huge LFA fan and hopefully a future owner, right now I own a 2004 Acura NSX with Comptech supercharger and few other goodies. I was recently at the nurburgring and I was very fortunate to find thee Lexus's garage, they had 7 LFAs there, 2 of them were up front and later drove to the 'ring. I wasn's allow to take any pictures but i did manage to snap a few once i was back in my rental car.
I will post more once i fugure out how to upload larger files.

I notices that this section does not have a random picture thread so i thought i would create one and post my pictures here.

The white building to the right is Lexus's "garage", it anly took me 3 hours to find it
. It's located around 12 kilometers (2 villages away) away from the ring. When i found it I was talking to one of the Lexus test drivers for close to an hour, of course to me it felt like 10 minutes but it was an awsome experiance. Something that may be valuable to you guys here is that when we were talking about the prototypes I was told that there was 8 prototypes total in Germany and 20 total made so far...Maybe someone here can email me at brylek@gmail.com if you have a way of posting them here...

I sent you 3 emails, I hope you find some good onces. I have more but they aren't anything special or blurry...
For the record the pictures were taken on August 23 and 24th.
Thanks for the welcome, I hope you enjoy the pictures. I'm now going back to reading about this remarkable piece of art.
BR, Paul.

3 hours just to find their hideout? Wow! Tell us more about how you chased them down!

Thanks for the super sleuthing Paul
This points to the amount of prep work Lexus did prior to the ring training days for buyers
Paul could you tell us more about how you found the warehouse
Also dis you get on the Ring with something motorized during your trip
