As early as 2000, Toyota began working on design concepts for an advanced, “halo-type” sports car for its Lexus brand. Over the next eight years, this LFA concept would evolve from an initial design by famed Italian designer Leonardo Fioravanti to the full-fledged production supercar that made its debut at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show. Offering only a limited production of just 500 examples, each LFA was custom ordered by its owner and then hand built by a specialist team at Toyota’s Aichi factory.
Bristling with advanced technology, the LFA featured a monocoque body 65% constructed from carbon-fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), yielding a lightweight but rigid chassis that saved more than 220 pounds compared to aluminum alone. Under the hood, the LFA received a Formula 1-inspired 4.8L, 72-degree V-10 engine with variable valve timing, with that engine developing 553 HP and 354 lb-ft of torque and mated to an Aisin 6-speed, single-clutch, automated manual transmission with paddle shifters. The resultant package yielded a supercar capable of rocketing from zero to 60 MPH in just 3.6 seconds en route to a top speed of 202 MPH.
One of only 23 shipped to the United States, this 2012 Lexus LFA is No. 270 of the 500 custom ordered cars produced. It is one of only 38 examples finished in Absolutely Red paint, with the interior finished in contrasting red and black leather that is complemented by the carbon fiber trim. Other interior details include 10-way power seats with heaters, an LCD combination meter, a Mark Levinson sound system and Bluetooth connectivity. Offered with only 79 miles on the odometer, this extremely rare Lexus supercar also boasts a Torsen-type limited-slip differential, Brembo carbon-ceramic disc brakes with yellow calipers, and polished wheels, which were a $2,500 option when ordered new.
