I was there yesterday at the show. The LFA on display at the LA Auto Show is the White w/Red interior LFA and the Carbon Fiber roof. It was airshipped from Japan just for this event.
LA 2009: 552-HP Lexus LFA Supercar On Display at Los Angeles International Auto Show
The latest step in the car's North American tour, the Lexus LFA supercar has arrived at the Los Angeles Auto Show, where it will be viewable by the public starting later this week. The LFA has already been shown at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas last month, but it was an industry-only event. The car premiered at the Tokyo Auto Show.
The LFA is powered by a 4.8-liter V10 engine with 552-hp and 354 ft-lbs of torque. Weighing just 3,263 lbs thanks to a chassis and body that is mostly constructed of carbon fiber, the LFA can hit 62 mph in 3.7 seconds and tops out a 202 mph! Just 5o0 LFAs will be built a a cost of $375,000 each.
After LA, the car's plans are limited, with Lexus announcing that for 2009 it will visit just four more shows in Detroit (at the North American International Auto Show), Chicago, Dallas and New York.
Lexus has announced that it will lease rather than sell all the LFAs in order to avoid speculators trying to flip cars for profit.
