Perhaps the ignition is set-up race car style? First you turn the key, then you press the engine start (or vice versa). Many race cars have such a setup.

You can't see it from that angle, but doors handles are recessed, in front of those side intakes.

Per autoblog

In less than six hours the wraps will officially come off the Lexus LF-A at the Tokyo Motor Show. And about 36 hours after that, we'll be piloting Lexus' first foray into supercardom on and around Florida's Homestead-Miami Speedway.

I like the exterior and suspect it is more impressive when seen in the metal, but I LOVE that interior. I think Lexus has really upped the game on this interior.

I'm not even following this anymore. Lexus is seriously blowing things out of proportion for their first supercar.

Florida is the best. NO emissions, women with No clothes on, and the LFA? NO fair. Share the wealth
