A while back, I've stated my reason for delaying my order as long as possible was exactly for this, an improved LFA. I'm happy that now we have pictures and videos of something to that effect to look at.

Both Lexus LFA 'AD-B' prototype quickly followed by Lexus LFA 'AD-A' prototype attacking Nurburgring
p.s. Listen to them both back to back. They both are V10s and both are equally high revving. However, you can see the 'AD-B' LFA sounds like a normal LFA while the 'AD-A' sounds a lot more scary probably as if it has a bigger displacement engine.
'AD-A' is definitely the monster of the two and if you see the 'AD-A' is going much faster than the 'AD-B' at the same track section.

I am really confused now. It sounds different in this video. Although, it sounds very high-revving, but the pitch and tone is different from that of LFA. I wonder what it has under the hood??

Apples to oranges, really. Even the current LFA Nurburgring Edition could have easily beaten it, if Lexus had decided to fit the same ACR racing cup slick R compound tires on the LFA Nurburgring Edition instead of Potenza street tires that are supposed to work both in wet and dry.
They are diffferent cars with different intended purpose.
