Ok, ok, lousy BlackBerry pics again but I just had to share. Lexus Fourways in Johannesburg has an LFA on the floor and it probably won't be there for long. I believe that this is LFA #4 in the country. At R 5.5 million the LFA is monstrously expensive in South Africa - directly converted currency for currency this is EUR 550,000!!!

Hey, we all know it's expensive but man in the 'fibre it looks ridiculously good. It's a special beast to behold and the interior is just magnificently turned out. Extraordinary! Oh well here goes with the crappy cellphone pics. Sorry.

:t-cheers:
 
WOW.... AMAZING...People still use Blackberry's these days.... :eek: .. Just kidding Martin.;)

Greatly appreciate you sharing these photos of this spectacular beast! Definitely a master-class in Function-is-Form!


So be honest... how long did you just stand there admiring and studying the LF-A? Maybe by the time the Jo'burg Motor Show comes around you'll be able to get your hands on a more practical camera. :D
 
Some more pictures of the same LFA being delivered in South Africa. This is LFA #134. Lexus is over 1/4th of the way through building all the LFAs:

I must admit, not liking the silver on it. Looks too "normal" for it.

I see what you are saying, but I would still love it in puke green. :D

In fact, I don't mind the run of the mill silver, as it gives it appears discreet (or is it discrete? I always forget:eusa_doh:)

Oh yeah, no doubt. Puke green you say? Hell, I'd take this even if big ass Green Hulk puked on it. :D
 
Thanks for sharing Martin! Nice to see exotics making their way here, I hope that is an indication of where our local economy is heading:D

Honestly though, this is the total last super car on my list;) There are just to many better cars from Italy, Germany and GB to choose from.
 
I also had seen a white one at the local car show and in real life, it looks spectacular with a very overwhelming presence inspite of being several inches shorter than even a compact Toyota Corolla.

I did not have the good fortune to hear that unbeatable V10 in real life.

My local Lexus dealership says, two LFAs are coming to my city. One of them is a standard LFA and the other will be an LFA with Nurburgring package. If I am lucky, I will be able to see them driving around on the road.
