Yes I have never done a blog on the famed Lexus LFA until know when the last of the 500 is rolling out of the factory. Of course they are not just making the last LFA a normal LFA but instead a one car special edition LFA. This Nürburgring-spec LFA get more hp 562 instead of 552 with the same 4.8 liter V10. It also has a lowered suspension by 10 mm and bigger front spoiler. Lets talk about why this car should be remembered for an eternity to come if the world does not end on the 21st. This is the car that has to have a digital rev counter because it gains and loses revs so fast that an analog gauge can not keep up. This is the car that could accelerate from 0-62 mph in 3.7 seconds and will top out where the law and bravery permits at 202 mph using materials from all corners of the world. Lexus says that 175 people worked on one car a day in a dedicated factory in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. The chief engineer, Haruhiko Tanahashi, said: "I've lived and breathed supercars for the past decade. Specifically, one supercar, LFA. Very few people have the opportunity we had to create a world-class supercar from a blank sheet of paper." Losing the LFA is not a complete loss, because it gave Lexus new ways of using carbon fiber, which the LFA was almost completely made of, on vehicles like the new super car that is coming out from Lexus hopefully soon, the Lexus LF-LC. I guess that this price is no longer accurate but the LFA cost $375,000. Goodbye to yet another great super car.
