The Next Japanese Supercar...

Video: Lexus LFA Full Production Model Unveiled
Powered by mid-front mounted 4.8-litre V10 engine with 9,000rpm red line

The new LFA marks an important moment in both the history of Lexus and the development of the supercar. A true “clean-sheet” design, the LFA was created by a small, passionate and dedicated team of engineers whose achievement has been to push the boundaries of technologies materials and engineering at every stage to produce a car like no other to have carried the Lexus badge.

Constructed using advanced carbon fibre technology, the rear-wheel drive LFA is powered by a bespoke, high-revving 552bhp 4.8-litre naturally aspirated V10 engine, matched to a rear-mounted six-speed sequential automatic transmission, giving 200mph-plus performance.

The Supra replacement. The front looks supra-ish with a modern twist.

lol you crack me up. why whats wrong with it? i know the ft-86 is a lousy suggestion for the newborn ae86 but why hate on this new expression of supercar? its ok, i mean what else you expect toyota to do? all their life they been warping frames and rebadging them as another toyota car. ofcourse we can see a jza80 frame warped here.
