The McLaren F1 would like a word with you. The LFA is no doubt one of the great road cars of all time, but if you are to dethrone the King you aren't going to do it with only two pedals.
@@NA-gf1zy pops and bangs are so dumb, every fuckin 2l turbo hatch is trying so hard to sound good. its just sad. real performance cars have no need for pops and bangs!
Not a lot of car companies if any have access to a world class instrument maker just to tune the exhaust. They sold the car at a loss and everyone keep saying its over price. This car have appreciated in value.
I worked for a Lexus Lexus dealership in Northern CA for a short while. They had an LFA on the sales floor the whole time. Price tag, $470,000. Only a few dealerships ever got one of these to sell. The one on the showroom floor was shipped back to North Carolina and given to NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon by the dealership owner, Rick Hendrick, as a retirement present. Rick would always swing by his dealerships during the Sonoma races every summer. FYI, the great sounding exhaust was developed by Yamaha just for the LFA.
Jeremy Clarkson said "this is the best car ever" and would take this car over any Ferrari, Buggati, Lamborghini or Porsche. That is really saying something if you know who Jeremy Clarkson is.
The thing has put so many smiles on people’s faces over the years. It has made its mark in history despite the criticism it received. I believe the conventional transmissions transmission actually makes it sound more interesting
@@wackysamurai1583 Even though it is a W16 that V10 sounds much better though. Although those 4 turbos definetely ruin the sound of that engine. Still the W16 sounds great.
@@BuckeyeBallistics that sound has a price tag, a V10 that was sound engineered by Yamaha to sound like an F1 car isn't happening for 50K. The cheapest/closest stock you're probably going to get is an LC500 or F Type R and they're still around 100K.

@@BuckeyeBallistics almost every supercar video has someone saying "if this was the supra....".

I heard it as well and I came back to the video and it didn't sound weird anymore lol and also seemed a bit sped up but not anymore lol Area 51 is trying to tell us something
... that is street-legal. I just heard the Ferrari FXX K and was shocked to admit Ferrari actually made something sound better than this... Maaan and here I didn't want to like Ferrari :( Overpriced and sort of too proud of themselves. But the FXX K is only a track toy so it doesn't count. =) Now I need to know what happens if you remove the mufflers on a LFA and a LaFerrrari - would either one sound like a F1 car??
I feel like if someone got a supercar that they didn’t necessarily want, they would feel just a bit disappointed, but I don’t think any car enthusiast would be disappointed with the LFA, I can’t even imagine it.
People say this car is let down by its comparatively slow gearbox, but I think it makes it sound so much better, just imagine lots of gearbox farts over the top of this every time it it changes gear🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 part of what makes its sound so good is that slight drop in revs between gears which you wouldn’t get with a super fast modern gearbox.
When I was a kid I thought no road car can sound like a F1 car. This, Porsche Carrera GT and Pagani Zonda told me "NO, We can do it too" love this car to bits, it's a shame it's too expensive because Toyota/Lexus loss money making this.
There is still one brand new sitting in the showroom at a dealership up in PA. Every time I go there on behalf of our other Lexus dealership I always love seeing it
I saw this car when it first was at a car show in Javitz center in NYC...... it was beautiful to see in person.. Sadly they couldn't start up the engine due to some restrictions or something. I believe LFA stands for Lexus Fuji Apex.
If i could choose only one car i will choose this one, not an other, even a chiron or a laferrari cause i love love love this sound, it's the best ever.
I dont understand why Lexus completely dropped this car. It was brilliant, and people still rave about it. They should pick this project back up, and follow the Audi business model.
Maybe not the fastest,
maybe not the lightest,
maybe not the "coolest",
but LFA will be always The Greatest.
