Do they need you to prove you have a permanent address in the US to qualify for a US allocation ?

I still can't believe Lexus Japan stated that they will not honor any warranty on a non JDM LFA...
Makes no sense to me..!!

I am very sure they will work on it.... $$$

i doubt you can even order a RHD here in the US? i don't think it will pass inspection?

i think it's just a way for them to control the number of cars in regions, so cars won't be relocated easily across countries

but imho, what's the big deal? if it's truly a lexus, then it should be nothing more than oil changes

8 I still wonder why they insist on allocating extra cars to US when there are more buyers in japan who wants them but can 't .if they want more exposure for the LFA/Lexus brand here, they should try to work out a deal to place the LFA prominently in a major "Event movie", that may even be better than selling them to high profile celebrities here, and Hollywood movies are very popular worldwide too ...

^Agreed lol. A placement in a James Bond movie on the other hand would do wonders, but is unlikely to happen.

Like Bond said before, Never say Never. It could happen. The 2000GT was in one!

seriously, i hate to say, but if we see lfa in FF5, i should have expected paris hilton

it's another thing i can't understand. so lexus is trying to use the lfa in ff5 to impress bunch of kids? i think isf would have been better.
