Lexus LFA: Orchestrated and Choreographed
We have video of a trio of Lexus LFA drifting and performing at an event in Japan to the strains of Elgar and Rossini. There are only 500 Lexus LFAs in existence, so seeing more than one at a time is quite a motoring spot. To see three together in one place is unusual, even more so […]

Lexus has revealed that all 500, £336,000 Lexus LFA Supercars have now been sold. Production commences in December and lasts for two years.
