Finally, a big name endorsement for the LFA in the US market. What is the color of the car anyways?

His Wiki page needs to be updated with this addition

Since he is 66 he fits the core buyer profile, unlike gengar and 07

I am surprised why Jay Leno does not have one? He loves exotic cars like the LFA. He has a Porsche Carrera GT, Enzo, MacLaren SLR, Ford GT etc.

I was not aware of that. He usually picks all of the limited edition cars and Enzo is a valued one.

I am surprised he never buys a Ferrari:

I need a "restricted" parking spot at work.

Before I absolved myself of any ties to CA, I used to have a place right near Oracle HQ. Didn't know the CEO was such a collector.

Note it's another Config III. Penetration is huge.

The flush look is the only reason Lexus offered no winglets as an option, from what I understand. I wonder how much aerodynamic difference there is.
