not a good idea. not all lfa are delivered by fall so people can still back out. lexus already has enough lfa to get rid of now, more "new" lfa information is just going to mess up their own market more.
but at the same time i guess it also depends on price. if it's going to be north of 500k, that's a whole different story and not necessarily something regular lfa owner would just go like that and say switch

I think it is adding more depth to the line up and most likely it will be north of $500K and probably only 50 - 100 copies. However, I wish Lexus had put down a proper lap time on the standard LFA since so many people make a wrong assumption that the NE edition is a lot faster than the standard LFA when it is only 7 seconds slower.

For some reasons, this is what I've thought of the 'Ring edition, so I did not go for it. However, this car seems significantly better than what is in production right now, and therefore has my complete interest. The price would probably be very high and that might be a turn off.
Btw, Lexus told be that they would have buyer for my allocation if I did not longer want it, because I was thinking about buying an US unit and keep it at my Florida home.

It would really be for bragging rights and for the additional aura and presence due to those aggressive aero parts, really. Unless, one plans on tracking it a lot, the standard LFA might be the one to have for occassional spirited driving and tracking.
BTW, next month a white Nurburgring edition is due to arrive in Calgary, AB. Maybe, you can try your luck at that one (not that I want to since I would like that white Nurburgring edition to stay in Calgary).
I think the price tag on the AD-A would be quite hefty and they would market it as the ultimate Nurburgring racer that is faster than any production car on that track.
I agree. I think this seems something in addition to the 500 LFA and LFA NE. Lexus would probably reveal the details some time this fall since it is still undergoing testing and tuning so it still has quite a ways to go before the product is finalized.
