The Lexus LFA is a masterpiece of Japanese engineering, with a unbelievable naturally aspirated V10 that revs to 9000 rpm, and an exhaust note that makes modern F1 cars jealous. These cars are exceedingly rare, with only 500 made for the entire world, and in recent times, the values have absolutely skyrocketed. Even seeing one of these is a very rare occurrence, but to get to drive one? truly special. Somehow my friend Cody gets to spend nearly every day driving this Lexus legend around, oh and we used it as the camera car to take photos of my Z06. Enjoy this interview video with Cody as we learn some really cool insights into what it is like to daily drive a Lexus LFA. Also make sure you check out my full driving review!

I made a joke when I got my LC. It's the closest I'm ever getting to an LFA lol. I have a RCF and the LC but still nowhere in the ballpark for an LFA. Maybe 10 years ago when no one was looking at them. But timing I guess.

I will say I haven’t (yet at least?) seen a good pov drive of this car. Everything I read and watched about it really dogged on the transmission.. seeing and hearing it here tho, I get it. No shit it’s not as fast as a pdk (or zf8 😏) but it’s engaging when driven as it should be! I heard it was supposed to shift and behave similarly to a manual transmission and that was a huge part of development. What a car 🤯
