The LF-LC prototype probably costs as much as at least 2 of the LFA's combined. :eek:

No where near a $1 billion in car inventory for all the manufacturers on display. Tens of millions at most. 4 LFA's from Lexus? Hmm. I'm thinking the remaining allocation hasn't been completely spoken for.

More reasons to hit the show here in Chicago.
The plaque number added to the rear plate was a nice touch for these LFAs
Off topic, I took the kids to Indy to go to the Super Bowl and there was nothing in terms of cool cars there, unless you like police cruisers and motorcycles (more than you see in DC near the White House).
Driving down to Indy I did see the huge sign board of an LFA that Lexus of Merriville has.

The #26 owner who took delivery at Orland Park gets it serviced at Merrillville. I'm going to guess Merrillville is closer to his residence despite being in Indiana. I saw #26 at Merrillville getting serviced once when I brought in my new IS F for the 1k checkup. AFAIK the owner doesn't display it at either.

FYI, the normal highway speed North of Evanston is 75 with lots of room to roam and few if any bubble gum machines.
You can head in Indiana with a speed limit of 70.
But be warned.
When heading to the Super Bowl, some genius passed me at 100 in the right lane (traffic was doing 80-85). We later saw him pulled over and cuffed. There were 4 trooper cars on the scene.
Also, much of the exotic car owner expeience is derived from rolling around Oak, Rush and Michigan Ave, the slower the better.
