Default LFA #P014 Pearl Yellow & Friends @ Toyotafest 2012

Pearl Yellow LFA is still around and it finally made it's visit to Toyotafest this year. Last year, LFA #032 was brought over but wrapped in yellow in time for the Top Gear USA episode at Infineon Raceway. Can you guess what the other cars are?

Glad to see P014 back again and that it is still in the US. Wish it appeared in the press more (in lieu of the black one).

Ofcourse, the other two cars are 2000 GT and FR-S.

Wow... I had no sense of the LFA's size until those pics with the FR-S. The LFA is really tiny if it's dwarfed by the FR-S, which is already super tiny compared to other modern sports cars. The 2000GT doesn't count since it's a classic car :-P

That's the exact same thing I first thought when I saw the pics.

It really puts it into perspective though when considering that the LFA, despite universal praise for compactness and low center of gravity, itself dwarfs older supercars. Compare even to the 2000GT, especially amazing considering it's a longitudinally-mounted straight 6 (i.e., more cylinders in a row than the LFA)! It's just a completely different world now.

All the pics came out great. A great lineage of sports cars within the Toyota family. Great stuff, Ryan!

I think a Supra TT is missing in those shots
