Lexus LFA Nordschleife lap

- A lap around the Nürburgring Northschleife. My first time on the Nordschleife, didn't know the track well. Drove a few laps on PS3 a day before. Enough to remember the 1st third of the track, the rest was familiar, bot not enough.
Made A LOT of mistakes, overshifted a lot trough the whole lap. Probably because of the excitment, so don't blame me :) Amazing expirience. Great to be able to look at the speedo too. The video hides true speed very well.
Still in love with the engine and the sound of the car. The LFS is magnificent, sublime on the road and track. Best supercar I've driven. So balanced, so poised and with enormous levels of grip. Will remember this for the res of my life. Was one of the highlights of my journalistic career and I get chills just looking at this ...
Timed the lap, and I think it would be around 8min05sec. Good&fast for my first time at the Ring. The car was a normal LFA, not the Nürburgring edition that did the best laptime for the LFA model. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
All the people who played too much Gran Turismo and Forza being critical of this guy will never understand the difference between a Restart button VS the fear of crashing their own exotic on a track
I never restart or pause because you can't in real life

@@enssvar thanks!
@@redstoneracing did you kidding me?

This what CZcams is for: watching a normal guy trying to push a £300k+ supercar round the 'ring in HD. I enjoyed that
Me too
If only you knew how bad youtube was going to become
My boy don’t even have suction cup 🤣🤣
They're $1m now
These things are breaking the million now lol
Everyone saying he did a bad job at driving. Let's see you ripping a $375,000 supercar with 552hp on one of the most tricky courses in the world better than him. He states that it is his first time and I am amazed at his skill.
SLarson No matter how good you drive, there's always few pro go-karters hating. And if you drive good, they always come up with a reason to hate. I'm more than happy to watch these videos, could never imagine going 200 km/h trough corner with my 1997 Ford Scorpio =)
SLarson it is the most deadliest tracks in the world you need to have big ball to drive it and this dude have it
+SLarson people are saying as if they are bringing a $1000 car around the track
+SLarson he made it in 8 minutes and first part he was heating the tires and brakes!

one of my first thought too :D HAHAHAHA
8mins in a Burnout/warm-up lap hahaha
That exhaust note is heavenly.

@@rtx_____ why
JR STINGER You shouldnt force your religion on anyone, nor mention it in a video on CZcams about fucking cars.
@@rtx_____ They weren't pushing shit on to anyone. You're a total fucking pussy if you can't stand to have someone talking about god in the youtube comments.
@@rtx_____ just because he said that doesn't mean you need curse at him
I don't care about his driving, I care about his JOY whilst driving. And that is just fabulous :)
Was just about to say the same thing, made me smile seeing him get so excited for what was happening.
Agreed
exactly, this is what driving is actually about
exactly, this is what driving is actually about
I was just enjoying the *sound* of his driving.
Man...pushing a car thats that rare and expensive on the toughest race track in the world..and not having previous hands on experience on the green hell... you did EXTREMELY well. Congratulations.. and you are very very lucky to have had the experience in that car. and not crashing the thing. . All the best and give everyone more videos like this.
There's no way he hasn't not been there before. I can tell he knows the course
@@behindthen0thing forza lol
@@austinmcbride7139 Facts!!
Thats insane that he never had driven the course before in real life. Albiet he has track experience. And has driven it in VR or video game you have to have knowledge on it even if it's not first hand experience.
@@behindthen0thing he does not. His channel is Komotar Minuta
Its Illegal for a car to sound this good
ola kede it must be illegal for a car Not to sound like this!
@@Realbusdriver13 true
Best sound
With how cars are now, it kind of is.
this comment has not aged well for california
Damn dude you managed to do about an 8 minute lap as an amateur and new to the ring, much respect
Seemed like he knew the ring pretty well to me
@@behindthen0thing he was noticably more carefull where he had less visibility, so i doubt he had much if any experience. More likely big balls and good insurance.
@@behindthen0thing literally says in the caption it was his first ever run
@@mielvanvelzen5967 I see what you mean but the fact that you’re in an LFA should be reason enough to slow down a little early into corners
@@behindthen0thingyou can tell he was hesitant in some areas, on the first straight coming into the slight left then sweeping right he got off the gas multiple times and didn’t send it through there etc etc
That whoowhoooo made me smile and shows how much fun LFA is
Anthony Galeano same.
e46 project and is250 daily here
Toyota4Life it's so funny in GT 6, I can barely imagine how much fun would be in real life 😱
Anthony Galeano just a 323i, picked it up for $500 usd and it’s pretty good.

Don't worry about the go-karters, would love to see the kids go around the ring that fast. Tires squeeling in a $400k exotic supercar, you got balls. Nice lap, nice car

this is so pure and fun to watch!
respect the drive
Hey tedward
And now not only you have driven one, you have also provided us the best LFA video ever with that audio quality thank you sir!
Just so happened to get recommended your LFA video week ago, then this one came up today haha, and see you in the comments. Heavenly car, seen it in person at the Boston international car show in 2013.
:D
2:00 That yell made me so happy.
I'm pretty sure that's the closest a production car ever gets to sounding like an F1 car. That wail is to die for!
Yepp-- the Porsche Carrera gt comes close but this takes the cake
Yeah.. We always think of Lambos being close to that F1 sound. That is until you hear the Carrera GT and LFA.
it's because it revs to 9k
Wolarski 9.5 k rpms if you redline it enough.
M5 e60?
2:57 this dude never drove the most insane track in the world and goes 250 kmh and cornering with 215 kmh in an million dollar LFA on his first lap... insane.
Was ONLY worth 300k back then
@@ainsmas361 your name tells a lot about you...
When I wasn't into racing, I thought LFA wasnt fast enough for the price and was like "rather buy GTR for the price..." but now I really love the fact that this thing does this much fast while having amazing exhaust notes from N/A V10 which is really a huge game changer for the driving experience on both tracks and daily driving, moreover, most people are even close to able to push this car to the limit. This car seems to be really comfy and bossy on public roads as well..This car is truly a masterpiece. I wish I can have one if I had money.
Exactly! It’s not just the sound that is amazing…

yea dude i fosho have the lfa and the e type in my top 5
If sedans are included you can't do better than a Jaguar XE Project 8. That thing has better steering and handling than a 911 Carrera! It sounds better than a Hellcat IMO and looks gorgeous. I don't think you can do any better than that 🤔
8:58 the best 15 seconds any car enthusiast could EVER experience
Totally disregard the rest of the track for the one straight?
AadilF1 yes
@@Aadilf1 shifting twice at 9k-10k rpm with that beautiful yamaha designed exhaust... at almost 200mph? Yes its the best of the entire track
@@TheV8Pumpkin The exhaust note isn't the main thing about this car, it's the performance and track handling, I'd prefer to take this on the bends and turns of the ring than the boring straight.
@@Aadilf1 oh I understand you completely! But man I cant imagine what its like going down that straight in an LFA
the the age of EV upon us, this LFA engine will go in history as the best ever made internal combustion engine for a production car
Only the market can decide when EV’s take over, I think it will be much longer than most people think!

As Clarkson said “it’s the best car I’ve ever driven.”
he is sovenian
That looks like the most fun 15 minutes money can buy... Looks like you had fun! I've done the track hundreds of times on a simulator and still don't think I would have pushed any harder than you. Thanks for posting!
I know this is an old video but i genuinly brings me joy to see how much of a good time he is having, No annoying shit, no music, no eccesive talking , just some guy having a blast in an amazing car...
that guys face came out of no where😐😐😐😐 Scared the shit out of me.
Can't see his face, but I know he is grinning. :-)

His other front facing camera is this video.
Man, that car sounds hella good. Easily one of the best engine and exhaust noises of any car, ever.
I love how there is no language barrier for joy.
I don't get the people criticizing his driving skills. I could feel the thrill and fear all the time while watching this masterpiece! Amazing work.
This looks like a lot of fun. I could practically feel the excitement.
Balls like church bells
I imagine that “WOOOHOOO” right at the beginning was music to the LFA engineers ears when they watched this video. That release of pure joy is what this car is all about
such a majestic engine. gotta love them V10's
LFA sound is still unmatched to this day.
man u really driving well ! love this car , this voice this accelretaion . I think Lexus has made one of best supercars in the world !
I’m genuinely impressed! New to the track and pulled this off, very nice
I could have closed my eyes and still enjoyed this video thoroughly... The sounds that car makes are unbelievable
Idk what’s better, this dude laughing his ass off or the sound of the exhaust
216 km/h in 4th through a downhill left turn near the start...damn that must feel nice !
What a legend for driving the LFA on the ring😮💨
"Drove a few laps on PS3 a day before" Legend 😂. Thanks for bringing us along.
Great driving, the LFA sounds majestic, out of this world symphony ❤
Great sound! ! ! I think its great to see people reving exotic cars. Most people just show off, he enjoys it 👍👍
That engine is EARGASM!! And to be new to racing, man, he did really good! He got some balls!
favorite car in a favorite track, perfect
One thing that didn’t translate over from videos and games when I rode along on the Nurburgring was the sheer difference in elevation on some of the straights and during some of the curves. There is a reason automakers use this track to sort suspension dampening. Lesser setups can easily be thrown out of control resulting in spin outs even when not under power or due to lift off. Track felt like a rollercoaster ride even if you drive it at 100km/h
Maybe don't try and have a go at a circuit with cut springs instead of a proper adjustable suspension. Lowering the ride height doesn't change the dampening
That is a spectacular noise! The lfa is lovely to drive.
The way he maintains the speed around whole corner is amazing!
I've been on Nürburgring some years ago, with my s2000. It is a good video, not to mention that this car worth a lot of times more. So thumbs up for your bravery! Good work..!
0:20 casually smashing his face against the camera 😂
It wasn't perfect, but the car got away from him twice and he saved it. Kept his cool while understeering and over a sketchy bump. Very well done and awesome to watch you having fun!
Its my dream to be able to drive that circuit one day, this man is a legend !! Thank you for the ride, you did very well around the track

Just go and drive it
13 minutes of a beautiful sound
GREAT FUN! Congratulations. You were pushing a bit too hard sometimes, for a NS first-timer with a few laps on PS3. Fortunately, you made it through and the video is thrilling! *Excellent stuff!* :-)
This made me so damn happy
edit: hearing those heavy sighs at the end of the last straight, must have been an amazing experience
Looks like a lot of fun. I wish to try that one day. And that engine sound/exhaust pure music.
For the haters: look at the actual speed he’s at
Exactly.
Theres no haters tho
@@mr.irrelevant8826 What is your proof?
@@floydkerr Yeah I'm not looking through the comments for proof for my 1 year old comment, you look
@@floydkerr Not how it works, if my comment was recent I would have looked, but I made it over a year ago, idgaf about proving anything for that comment anymore. I am surprised that I got notifications for it still
Kick-ass! I found myself holding my breath a couple times, gave me a ridiculous rush!
Every time I drive there, I always want to come back for more... Enough is never enough 😅... Enjoying Nurburgring Nordschleife doesn't have to be about making good lap times... It's about being able to drive according to your passion and respective abilities 🏆... Nevertheless, this very lucky LFA owner is indeed blessed to own a legendary driving machine and being able to drive it on a legendary route too 👍 🤲 Well done 👏
considering that was your first hard run, you did very well, definitely picking the right line better in the lap after a suspect first section. i would like to see you drive again once you learn this very difficult circuit.

"My first time on the Nordschleife, didn't know the track well. Drove a few laps on PS3 a day before." - Jesus H Christ, really? Is that clanking sound we can hear in the video your brass balls knocking together? Absolutely superb video - and splendid whooping!
LFA and ISF in a video, this is beautiful
The fact that he is enjoying himself out there so much is so ❤️❤️❤️
Haha the dude was sooo happy
to much happy so we can't hear the perfect sound of the yamaha music exhaust.
Look at the joy the LFA gives him. That’s something an EV can never give.
Its the year 2024 and the LFA get's better every day .... An 8+ minute lap is respectable, very respectable.
I was so happy for you being excited
what an amazing car! that looked like loads of fun.
That car is my biggest dream...
To have driven a few laps on a PS3 the day before, I'd say this is a very solid performance on your part being in a car you've never driven. I'd kill a man to be in your shoes lol
absolutely true ! i prepared 3month on ps3 to drive on the nordschleife. everyone of the 72 corners is so dangerous in real life. green hell !
Weird, every time i search LFA in Nordschleife video i never found this video. Thank God now i have
Seen countless videos of ppl driving on this track - this video wins for driver having the most fun. Cheers fella!
Seems like the people who hate on this guy are the same people whos only track racing experience was getting 4th place at their local rent-a-kart.
More like they drove their moms Honda Accord in a street race!
This guy had the time of his life
10 Cylinder magic sounds
That was beautiful to see and hear
I never forget Mr. Naruse.
100% no way this was his first lap. You'd have to know this track like the back of your hand to drive it the way he does. There are way too many blind corners/straight entries that he just blasts through. Not to mention not knowing the grip that's available from the asphalt, or under the weather conditions that day, and those two factors alone vary greatly from one track to another. Regardless, this is an amazing video, and he's is an extremely skilled driver.
Love seeing this thing get driven so hard! Great video
1 Million Views now, Nordschleife, my favorite car, nice driving, dude.
@biggerbi- there's a little storage space in front of the sat nav screen. keys didn't come close to the screen. So go slap yourself, thank you very much.
@Bob Dalmat - Bob, the way I see it, I it was quite OK for my first lap on the ring ever, with a rare supercar I've been trusted not to crash tha I haven't driven before.
Time the lap, it would me more than 8 min, and less than 8 min 10 sec. respectable regarding the circumstances.
was excited (kinda hard not to be), screwed up most of the lines, upshifted to early a lot (the car goes like a motha...), shifted to many times in general .. did a bunch of mistakes, that would have gone away, had I know the track and the car better.
All those times in ring simulators really paid off. Glad you are happy, that dip on the road 5/7 thru the track makes your spine tingle.
Oi him laughing and cheering made me laugh man i loved it
Great car! Also happy you enjoyed that lap! :)
He enjoyed a lot. And so did I, that was beautiful!!👍👌
I would love to see Misha take this around the track
Oh got that track look even more tricky than in video games! Really good for a first time on a track...and with the stress to drive a car like that. Wow, you really nailed it! I driven few times on a track and i could'nt have done better.
That V10 sounds beautiful 👍
10 years later, this still one of the best sounding LFA videos out there.
I'd literally never heard a german laugh before, i didnt think it was even possible, but that's the power of the LFA
😂
fuck this looks so fun
I'm amazed by the fact that my guy just drove the track a few times on a PS3 (probably on controller) then went out and drove a screaming V10 Lexus LFA irl.
this is pure artwork
My Dream Car ! but i'm happy with my IS300H :):)
the is300h is a fantastic car ! great buy !
thanks :D

lucky you . great lap
I’ll always love this Lexus btw that driver soo awesome
Haha his little screams and yells of pure joy.. thanks for the vid 😊👍
