I don't think that many actual Lexus customers were invited to buy the LFA. The ones that have presence in motorsports as well as other supercars yes. Those whop are known to drive them as well. Lexus wants the car driven, not sitting in a garage. I wish they'd give me one. lol.
I thing Ryan Woon was invited to buy one. Dealers aren't even considered in the inital allocation and I think there was a bit of a tussle because there were a few who wanted and couldn't get.
As for what's next? I'd much like to see an SC-F announced that's as fast as the LFA, for about ~$120k as soon as the last car is delivered into customers hands ROFLMAO.
better if it looks like this;
Would also like to see an entry level roadster (maybe FT086 based?) and a proper IS-F coupe (that's as close to a supra as we are going to get).
The Fox Marketing twin turbo IS-F allegedly makes 625hp on 6psi. I could see a 2UR engine + supercharger making at least 550. The tundra engines goes from 380hp to 550hp/500 ft/lbs when Supercharged @8.5 psi.

The Relentless Pursuit of Perfection was first, way back in the day. Then they switched to Passionate, now I believe it's just "Pursuing Perfection".
Ryan Woon got offered one??? WTF is he going to do with one? Drop in a 2JZGTE, V160 and AEM standalone and go run some 8 second passes on the strip? Rumor in the Supra circles is he's being a little bit pouty and not doing too much since he hasn't been able to take back his 6 speed record with the new blue car.
(But that may be old news, things change fast...)
That car in the pic would make a MUCH better SC. Coupe with a 2UR for the SC-F would be not bad. I just wish Toyota would offer a manual in the F cars...
