    We take the £340,000 Lexus LFA V10 supercar to the English countryside.
    We wanted to see how refined the highly anticipated Lexus LFA supercar really is, after all it is a Lexus. In our video we visit the English countryside in the V10 engined LFA to find out how it copes with life on UK roads.

    Best car I have ever heard in my life, I saw this in person at a motorshow in Sweden 5 years ago and the noise was the best thing id ever heard. It's an engineering masterpiece and lexus just came out of nowhere and made the fastest nordschlief car. Sad we will never see them on the roads. I see an aventador like every week atleast in moscow.

    552hp / 4.8L = 115hp / litre
    Don't ask me what the significance is behind this. But car stat buffs for some seem to be really impressed if a normally aspirated engine can produce over 100hp per litre.
    Just simply throwing it out that the LFA can produce 115hp / litre
