Pearl red LFA #022, Richmond, BC (Matt Kwok's Photography)
What an awesome photo gallery:
This is the #22 Lexus LFA and located in Canada (Vancouver).
You guys wouldn’t know how excited I was when I received a message to shoot this car. It’s one of the cars that I’m really crazy about (and if you guys know me, I’m not always the biggest fan when it comes to exotics because I can’t afford them haha). Like the Toyota 2000 gt, the Lexus LF-A is an iconic piece of engineering masterpiece. Unfortunately I couldn’t get the sound in the pics. This car sounds amazing and nothing even comes close to it.
Check out the full gallery:

Added the chassis number #22 to original post. Located in Canada (most likely, Vancouver, BC).
I also noticed the license plate has the hyphenated LFA name (LF-A, which was abandoned back in 2006).
Looks soooooo much better without those stupid winglets.

I think this is the one being displayed at Richmond Lexus in their new MASSIVE dealership. I took pictures of it a week ago but haven't had time to post some. Smexy color.
Jim Pattison Lexus in North Vancouver has a white one on display, red interior, red calipers. #109 I think.

I seriously have no idea what Lexus is doing.
Lexus Canada sold all of the Canadian allocations of LFA as early as May 2010 and closed down the sales process. I was told they used a draw process to select the 10 people who were private buyers.
Now out of those 10, 2 of them are parked in dealerships???

That is what makes me mad. Lexus Canada said all 10 LFAs were sold to private buyers and no dealership was allowed to buy them. They had so many private buyers willing to buy an LFA that they had to do a draw to pick the 10 people.
Now having 2 LFAs sitting in dealerships directly contradicts that. The only way it would make sense is, if two buyers backed out at the very last moment and the dealership owners ended up buying those??

of course, another remote possibility is that the real demand of lfa in canada wasn't high enough to fill the 10 slots (somewhat similar to how lexus usa first said all lfa sold), but a few members from canada did say their sources say otherwise
