Not yet, hoping something comes up soon. I (we) will try to keep a log of every LFA. There is a guy named Peloton that has pretty much a log of every Mclaren F-1, his research and knowledge of it is incredible.

LFA all over the place. Here are just a few of the Orange I took earlier this week at the show loaded from my FB account:
Jim Lentz and other Toyota execs talking about the LFA with NHTSA Administrator David Strickland.
Another shot with Scion in the background.
I'm still sorting through the 700+ pics I took this week. Will post more soon.

So the "Yellow" has a smoother winglet design that are glued on, and the "Orange" has the ugly winglets with screws showing. Why didn't Lexus glue on the nicer winglet style before showing it at the NAIAS???

The Yellow is a later prototype that was made in the early half of last year. The Orange LFA in my pics above (was originally Gray, Pearl White and started off as Flat Black) was one of the first prototypes built back in 2008. The winglets were added to the car later on which is why it has screws in place to hold them down. Because the winglets on this particular car are early prototypes, they are screwed down by design.

Yellow one at the Avaition & Auto meet last Sunday.
Maybe we need a separate LFA spotting thread now that they are hitting the streets. This yellow one is most likely a pre-production press car though, I have no idea, I don't pay super close attention to them like some of you guys do.
