i got some real crappy phone pics of the red one great looking car but the pics are bad quality

There's a white one in the bay area. I saw it at the Blox Open House and I think it was the same one I saw on 280 last weekend heading south. It was crazy to see it in motion.

I agree! I love amethyst and this is an awesome color. Beautiful car too.

That is a sick color!

Kawasaki used to offer a similar color a long time ago on their ZX's. It was called deep purple black mica.

Last Thursday, I was very fortunate to witness history at Laguna Seca. It was the first ever Lexus LFA Owners Event in Laguna Seca. Lexus USA made the arrangements to bring 16 LFAs over on this private track day for owners. This is the first and hopefully not the last LFA owners gathering.

I opened the link and I really said this out loud: "Daaah, that is Amazing"

It's sure easy to see where the design ideas came from for the FR-S.

Most of them came from the Toyota FT-HS concept.

Anyone here own a LFA? What do they do with the dynamic rear wing/air brake if they install a fixed wing? I believe they can be turned off. Maybe they are pulled out too?

I know I'll never own one, but it's still depressing nonetheless...
