Lexus’ first supercar, the LFA, looks more sinister than Darth Vader himself – especially in black. But it is indeed a very rare piece, which shouldn’t come to as a surprise considering that only 500 examples will be built each priced at a hefty $375,000.
Under the bonnet of the LFA lies a 4.8-liter V10 delivering 553HP (560PS) to the rear wheels via a six-speed sequential gearbox that can change gears in as little as 0.2 seconds. According to Lexus, the LFA accelerates to 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in 3.7 seconds and reaches a top speed of 202 mph (325 km/h). Oh, and did we mention the carbon-fiber chassis and bodywork?
Recently, U.S. car magazine Motor Trend got their hands on the LFA and did what any petrolhead would if they had the chance: find a big empty space and start drifting the heck out of it.
You can watch the LFA in action in the video below.
