The notion that all new cars suck sort of gets debunked the second the Lexus LFA gets mentioned. One of the only supercars where Lexus did not compensate by making it a hybrid or a twin turbo six cylinder. What Toyota did instead was build an absolute masterpiece, from an engine that is extremely impressive considering it is a V10 that weighs like a V6 and is as compact as a V8, to an exterior package that is truly beautiful for a supercar without going over the top. Seeing this car for the first time at ModaMiami was amazing because of how much it stood apart next to all the fancy Koenigsegg, Czinger 21C, and Bugatti builds, not because it was wilder but because the styling and the lines are truly understated in a beautiful way. The Lexus LFA is powered by a 4.8 liter naturally aspirated V10 developed with Yamaha, producing 552 horsepower and revving to 9,000 rpm so quickly it required a digital tachometer. It accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in around 3.7 seconds, reaches a top speed of 202 mph, and the Nürburgring Package set a 7 minute 14 second lap at the Nordschleife. Only 500 were built, featuring a carbon fiber body and one of the most legendary engine sounds ever put in a production car.
