The First Look: 2011 Lexus LFA


We all know that Lexus is the upscale brand of Toyota and has more luxurious features and extremely larger price tags.

Some people wouldn't be caught dead in a Toyota,but will happily drive a Lexus to their country club.
But those same drivers lack one important thing:passion. Lexus vehicles,along with toyotas,lack any sort of pure driving spirit,with the exception of the Lexus IS series and the long gone toyota Supra.
More than 10 years ago,Toyota realized that this lack of passion was no longer acceptable. With competitors such as Mercedes-Benz,BMW and Infiniti building more high performance cars, Toyota began developing something so incredible,it had to have the Lexus name to verify its exclusivity.

Their answer: THE LEXUS LFA

Make no mistake about it,it is truly a super car through and through. Based on the success of the Nissan GT-R, Lexus wants a piece of the growing exotic Japanese market, The LFA offers Ferrari and pretty much every super car maker some serious competition.

Lets look at some numbers:
0-60 in just 3.5 seconds
Top speed: 202 mph
Engine: DOHC 40-valve V-10,aluminium block and heads,port fuel injection.
Estimated price: $350,000
