*LFA is Definitely in the top 3 best sounding cars in history.*
1. LFA
2. Pre 1985 fairlady
3. Carrera GT
#1 LFA #2 Gt350 mustang #3 Maserati Turismo

2005 Ford GT (look up the police chase and tell me those downshifts aren't the best you've ever heard)
Carrera
SLR and Bentley Brooklands GT
"The LFA is so good that not even the people that made it, know how to make it again."
@@HarshKumar-ko7rs "not even the people that made it, know how to make it again"
That just makes it even sadder
That is true it is such a revolutionary car that Lexus can't make it again.that is why we see cars like LC 500 and rcf instead of something like the lfa
Quote from J. Clarkson XD
That is a stupid quote from clarkson, it's obvious why lexus can't make another car like the LFA, it took them over 10 years to make and over 1 Billion dollars, every car they sold made a loss, that's why they can't make it again, they know how to though
Man, both cars look so nice. The LFA doesn't look a day older than when it first came out. Such a timeless and beautiful design.
just needs LEDs
The McLaren F1, C3 Corvette, and Koenigsegg Agera are definitely timeless designs as well
LFA is ugly as fuck imo
@@notlNSIGHT Lol I knew you would say something like that, lets face it, yes, LFA is best sounding car in world and that's it, it's ugly, outdated and overpriced for a Toyota, LFA is overrated piece of shit
@@Justin_GFM mclaren yes, the agera is ugly af tho
I'd take the LF-A even if it's 5 seconds slower.
You absolutely right 👍
Buy an LC500 unless you can afford the LFA than buy a LFA
The sound alone is worth its weight in gold
@@lnnrt0161 Fact is, I can't even afford an RC350, not to mention LC500
@@kevinkong6202 I probably can’t even afford a Lexus badge
LFA's sound weakens my knees 😍😍😍😍😍
Alphalete 🐺💪
You know what? You are right, geez it feels weird
The best sounding car in my opinion 😍
@@dutchappafr Kings 💜✌
I just wet my trousers
The V10 is a complete masterpiece
S Furm yeah but not fast enough for the price a 3 times cheaper gtr smokes it
Michael Madsen that’s not what it’s about bud
@@michaelmadsen2268 Here we go again another nerd comes and tries to justify a Datsun. If you even bothered to clue yourself up a bit, you will know that the LFA thrashed the original GTR in a drag and track race. Of course a GTR thats been updated beyond its original will beat an old LFA, but where is the challange in that?
@RealCapo88 definitely deserves the credit, I would even respect it more if its been left in its original state. The current ones beyond what it originally was, hence comparison to an LFA is null
@@michaelmadsen2268 gtr is not RWD
Fun fact: Yamaha actually designed and engineered the exhaust for the LFA
And played a massive part in the engine itself
Makes sense, since they make audio equipment
@@deanhusbands8534 that's irrelevant though lol it's more to do with their expertise in exhausts for bikes
@@slonky821 i think every aspect of yamaha played a role there. they also designed the intakes of the LFA if i am not mistaken.
i would say that their knowledge in both high rev engines and music instruments played a role
@@slonky821 You would be surprised. Their logo represents three tuning forks. They take pride in their 'musical' history.
The LFA is one of the most ultimate cars ever made. The sound, the design and the performance all astounding
Price too
The v10 did the talking
@@nikhilPUD01 lexus never made money from lfa
The Design is actually ugly af was back the and still is lol
@@constantin5573 Nah
The LFA in black looks just GORGEOUS!
An LFA looks gorgeous in any colour!
Don't act like you didn't see Han's LFA before
@@sixtimesfive8751 yea maybe he didn't see it in Gernany
LC 500: revs
LFA: you dare test me little child 😂
lol
A V8 sounds a lot better than a V10.
@@CesarMoura3 not in this case. And I personally prefer V10
@@stealth1474 it's hard to find a V8 that doesn't sound better than the V10.
I mean, I respect your preference, truly do.
Just don't get the love for the LFA, sounds like an elephant with a cold.
@@CesarMoura3 it sounds like a race car of its time. Toyota had some of their’s Fomula 1 engineers working on it. Unique sound
Hey? You came here to hear the LFA? You're not alone😌😂
I came to hear the Lc500, but I loved the LFA as well
@@Michael-sh7yq why would you say that lol
Comenny sama kya diindo😀
Okay, and I knew the LC500 will lose anyways.
The sound on the LFA never stops to excite me. It sounds like an F1 car!
Yeah I love it too
Correction : Like a PROPER F1 car...
Too quiet imo
@@Alegzander1990 Well, yes, true.
not even close but sounds really awsome for sure
The sound of that LFA is just perfect imo
LOVE the LFA, masterpiece and all time pinneacle of the japanese car industry
Reminiscent of the V10 Carrera GT
Emilien Durand Makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up!😮
It sounds like a Gallardo or Húracan. V10's sound amazing
Best car ever in sound! My opinion.
Can we talk about how the LFA looks and sounds so freaking gorgeous?
Looks like a bat mobile
Best fear of engineering since model t. A v10 weighting less than a v6, tf??
But a lot of people don't like the styling tho... I personally REALLY love it... One of my favorite styling wise and THE most favorite considering everything... And oh man don't even get me started about the nurburging edition.... a fucking masterpiece that is... And i would take a nurburging lfa over anything else in the world
Omg im tired of everyone seeing a black car and saying WOW IT LOOKS LIKE THE BATMOBILE, mate the batmobile is the ugliest car it makes me want to throw up
Don't say bat mobile you make yourself look like a non car guy
@@mohammadfarajpour4485 same man every non car guy say that about a black supercar
The LFA is honestly one of the best sounding cars of all time 🤤
You should review one.
Not
@@BobaShakeMallow why not, sir?
Maserati Grand trismo is the best
That LFA sounds a-maz-ing! It’s also cool how similar they are in styling. The LFA was way ahead of its time and still looks modern today, and the LC is one of the best looking new cars out there.
I just melt when i hear that V10
That LFA sounds amazing like a road legal F1 car of 10 years ago.
PTE 2509 actually 14/15 years ago ☺️ (2006 was the last year with a v10 in F1, the Toro Rosso)
If the LFA comes back it will be a V8
@Oggy Still sounds awesome.
it sounds like a v10 f1 lmao
Yamaha engine🔥🔥🔥🔥
LFA is the perfect example of “too good to be true”. Reliable v10 that could do 500k miles if daily driven, and all on stock trans and block. Insane
Who said it was "reliable" though?
its a lexus@@joecool9739
@@joecool9739 absolutely everyone 😂😂
This video is surprising no one but we all still watch and re-watch for that LFA sound
So, this is pretty much like Ford GT vs Ford Mustang GT.
Gt500 maybe
Ford GT vs Ford Ecoboost Mustang LOL
Pussy don't ever compare a LFA to shit ford
@@the_batmobile0.4 yea keep ricecups away from real Cars 👍
@@electricporo they would have been better if they didnt place that V6 in that ford gt
As Jeremy Clarkson said, lexus don't know how to make the LFA again.
Azan Ali yes
They can do better! But LFA was red numbers for toyota, and people said it was too expensive! Would they pay $500k or more for a good lexus?
@@victorkanagui1719 it was around £200k-250k before it was sold out and it keeps going up in value every day
Victor Kanagui its very expensive now a days
@@victorkanagui1719 because is limited products. Car. Too
That start where you rev out the gray LC500 first followed up by that black LFA is amazing. Even today I think by looks it’s one of my favorite looking cars ever. It’s not only the sound but the design which makes me love it
Lesson learned:
Never challenge your older brother to a fight😂😂
LFA Exhaust note tuned by Yamaha, the documentary on the tuning of that exhaust was incredible to watch. Highly suggest you look at it!
a Bellend Toyota works with Yamaha on a lot of their things
Thanks sounds interesting
What is the documentary called?
Correct me if i'm wrong but I believe it was the part of yamaha that does the musical instruments and not the engine engineering that was working on the exhaust tunning. You do see yamaha in a lot of toyotas. The 2zzge toyota engine has a yamaha head, found in corolla xrs, matrix xrs and celica gts and even the Lotus Elise!
More indication that Toyota should have gone back to Yamaha and not BMW. You know what I mean..
The LFA's sound sends chills down my spine
Liam Maggs idk I would like the extra hp from a turbo🤷🏽♂️
It always will, for me.
AMG sounds like fuckin F1😂
Tru man,if I hit the lotto this is the first car I buy no doubt!
Sounds better than a 2jz.
what a great video! short, straight to the point (the old carwow lol) and arguably the best sounding drag race ever
LFA is killer, it's probably pretty reliable too compared to other exotics
yes, because it's a toyota
That exhaust note is just too delicious
nirvana for the ears!
"The best car i ever driven in my life is Lexus LFA"
Jeremy Clarkson 2019.
Definitely a dream car for many people, even just to drive one would be an honor
@@Wynorrific not fast enough tho. My Tesla Model 3 with boost could almost keep up. I would rather have an Acura NSX. Faster for sure and half the price.
@@LVraidersFan123 The car is 9 years old of course new car are faster but even then it still a 202mph car meanwhile the NSX will top at around 191mph. The model 3 is very quick in terms of acceleration and possibly can keep up in the first 200-300 meter but it will top only at around 165mph. Most rich people want the LFA as a collection car anyway not as a daily car obviously
@@LVraidersFan123 You're talking about an 11 year old car dude, of course it's gonna be slower than those 2. But it is one of the best sounding and driving vehicles ever. It's a Toyota so it'll never break and there were only 500 made worldwide. The interior is still better than a NSX and it's just got that rarity factor. On top of that, this thing is meant for the corners, not straight-line speed. Look up Nurburgring times and the LFA is still very high on the list as the 24th fastest car around it. Given that is the Nurburgring package, which only 50 were made, but the base LFA still runs a 7:38.35. Where are the Model 3 and NSX? NSX runs a 7:36 , a Model 3 Performance runs a 9:00. We're talking a V10 made by Toyota in a shell made entirely of carbon fibre with a single clutch flappy paddle trans. The NSX and Model 3 only beat the LFA off the line because the instant torque of the electric motors
@@Wynorrific I get all that but overpriced car for the level or performance. NSX is a better car for less money forget 11 mph difference
Yamaha really did a bang up job tuning that exhaust resonance one day I want to own one. The LC 500 is nice but I'm more interested in the 2021 IS 500. The 5.0 V8 N\A returns to the IS but not F badge just "500".
Awesome video!!!
I just came here for the Lexus LFA intoxicating exhausts note : ) 😍😍😍
Same lmao
Me too! Most amazing sounding exhaust I've heard on a production car.
It sounds crap
The LFA sounds like an F1 Car
Definetly not the v6 hybrid...
Sounds Better than new F1 cars...
like the old v10s yes
Jeremy Clarkson said that before.
Hmmmmmm I wonder whyyyyy? Maybe because it has an v10???
I never realized how gorgeous the LFA is until now. 🖤
Everyone talks about the sound but never talks about how pretty it looks and how timeless the design is
finally a LFA review Mat👍🏿
LFA -> supercar
LC500 -> GT
Too bad the Supra doesn't fit on the list
You are...
CORECT,NOW YOU GET A LC 500 and not the faster and better one
RCF track edition would have been a better comparison
Both of these cars lack proper soul and substance. One is a complete ripoff of an European exotic. Look at how many people lusted after an 400k Toyota...none. While Ferrari and Lamborghinis fetch more and no one is sneezing about it. Toyota missed and called it an experiment.
The LC is sadder because already at 100k, people who are looking to put money into something more prestigious, exhilarating and different from a marque that shares the same badge as an mall parking lot RX crossover.
The LFA is slow as fuck haha
Best sounding v10 cars
1. lexus lfa
2. porsche Carrera gt
3. lamborghini Gallardo 5.0
4. bmw e60 m5
5. Lamborghini huracan
I guess you never heard c63 before hmmp
What about zondas?
FW Vlogs said v10 cars. The c63 is a v8 and all zondas are v12s. They sound great, but arent v10s
@@krishkabra4214 yeah
If we're talking stock form then definitely agree with you. But there's some headers and exhaust setups you can do to the other cars which make them sound better. I guess regulations play a part in that. Can't beat the sound of a screaming v10.
I remember back when I was kid there was this really cool lexus at an auto show in the state where i live, the most notable thing I ever remember about it was not the sound of the exhaust but rather the shape of the exhaust tips, mainly because everyone was there to look around at the new cars, my favorite lexus had this weird triangle shaped exhaust, I always kept that memory in the back of my mind but now realize that the car I was looking at in my child hood was an lfa, I didnt realize at the time what car it was, but if I could get a second chance at seeing an lfa again that would be amazing and this video has provided that even if I am not seeing it in person
Both of these cars are amazing! The LFA Is one of my all time favorites
It saddens me that Lexus will never make another V10, the sound from that thing is unreal.
Yamaha actually designed and built the V10 in the LFA.
Yes it was a joint venture between Toyota & Yamaha
Neil Allen hes just saying is that there will never make another great sounding engine like that again because all of the emissions regulations now a days. car companies go hybrid, turbo, or electric
ITS YA FATHA exactly!
@@michealcorleone665 It really is sad. Its going to be worse in Europe when that whole "no sale of new ICE cars" goes into effect in a decade or two
Lexus LFA, one of the best exhaust notes of all time!
Not really
@@BobaShakeMallow bro… i- HOW COULD YOU NOT LIKE THE SOUND?!
*2:44** THAT HELMET FITS PERFECTLY WITH THE CAR*
I wish Yamaha would make V10's for more cars. Epic engine, epic sound.
LFA's V10 sounds even better than Lambos' !!
test1uci no duh
test1uci , yes
Toyota has some mad engines

Mat speaks so clearly the the auto generated subtitles are pretty accurate. Also, when you rev the cars, the subtitles just simply said “[Music]” and I couldn’t agree more for the LFA

Just watched the video. I prefer this shorter video much more than the new and long ones.
And the LFA really sounds amazing.
LFA exhaust note 🤑🤪
LFA = Lexus Finest Art

The exhaust sound of the LFA as the rpm climbs up, freezes my body and takes my breath away...
Sadly, thats something we'll never say about the sound of an electric car.
True...a lab mouse 🐁 surely becomes noisy as it runs inside its spinning wheel for exercise than an electric car...smh
I stood about three meters behind a LFA revving some years ago. It was... beyond words 😱
@ Brad Vividal...word up. A squirrel must definitely create a high rpm and a loud exhaust sound system delightfully crazy to blow up my eardrums. Good looking out helping stating the facts. Word to chip and dale.
Who misses good old no nonsese talk carwow videos
The LFA sounds absolutely perfect, worth the 300k! 😂👌🏽
I think Lexus will win the race. 👀
Not too sure my guy, might be the infiniti
i thought the jet would win
I think the rolls royce still has a pretty good chance of beating both
Nah I think the Saab will win
The only thing that's blowing them away is my hair dryer.

That V10 sound never gets old.. that is pure eargasm for a car lover😍😍
It is. It is such a shame they just made a couple of these. I would 100% get one if they were produced in the numbers of the R8 (and dropped in prices...).
