Lexus takes it one step further!


The Lexus LF-A claims to be Lexus’ supercar, as they begin to build up a better name each year with the intriduction of new outperforming cars that match European makes, in 2009 they have decided to take it one step further by introducing the LF-A. Back in 2005 Toyota promised to release the LF-A as soon as Toyota won their first F1 race, but since is very improbable to happen, they have taken their time by testing and retesting at the Nürburgring track in Germany. Now its expected to debut in the spring of 2009 in very limited numbers. Lexus’ supercar will be powered by a 5.0Liter V10 that will put out 520hp connected to a six-speed automated manual transmission. Real question is whethre or not Lexus will find customers willing to pay around $200,000 for a Lexus, that will nontheless not underperform an M6, 911Turbo, Nissan GT-R, and even the presticious F430 or Gallardo.
