The 2012 Lexus LFA maintains the balance of high performance with the civility of a luxury car. Its performance is derived from a 4.8-liter V10 that produces a factory-rated 552hp and 354 ft-lb of torque paired with a six-speed automated sequential manual gearbox (ASG) featuring steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters. The performance numbers are upper echelon for the time, with a 0-to-60 mph time of just 3.6 seconds and a top speed of 202 mph. Since this is a Lexus, the LFA’s amenities, function and style are, of course, lavish. The Lexus LFA is a truly unique supercar, with one available for sale with no reserve at the upcoming Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Collector Car Auction.
“The Lexus LFA was limited to just 500 examples for the world; only 156 were produced for the U.S. market,” the auction listing states. “In its configuration of Steel Gray with an orange interior, this is a one of one, according to the LFA Registry. That hue required an additional charge of $3,000.
“The interior orange was selected new from the selling dealer, Sewell Lexus of Dallas, TX. The additional cost to select orange front seats was $2,500, which did not include the additional $1,000 for the stitching. To accent the interior, the steering grip was also selected in orange for an additional $1,500.”
This Lexus LFA is a one-owner vehicle that has spent its entire life in the Lone Star State and includes a clean CARFAX report. Standard amenities include 10-way power adjustable seats, and a Mark Levinson Sound system with 12 speakers, a navigation system, XM Radio and Bluetooth integration.
The sale includes a Lexus Laser desktop model with a plaque signifying example number 437, Lexus luggage with a monogrammed VIN, hardbound LFA book with a protective sleeve, Lexus LFA watch in the original LFA box, two master keys and the Lexus tire inflation kit.
This 2012 Lexus LFA is available with no reserve at the 2023 Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Collector Car Auction and is scheduled to cross the stage on Saturday, January 28, 2023.
The auction runs from January 21-29 at Westworld of Scottsdale.
