Default LFA at Toronto Auto Show

Saw some very nice exotics at the Toronto Auto Show this year. Lambo, Ferrari, Bugatti, AM 77, bare CF Pagani Zonda R, and of course LFA.
It was too crowded to take pictures of most of these cars, but I managed to get these 3.
The Pearl Red LFA with dark wheels and yellow calipers. At first I thought it was the one delivered at Erin Mill Lexus, but apparently that one has light wheels.
By the way, the Adventador's sideview does not look very good in person, just simply too busy.

Awesome pictures. Most likely, the same red LFA is headed for the Calgary Auto Show next month. Cannot wait to see it.

I also went to see that LFA at Erin Park Lexus few weeks ago.
Here's one of my shot of the LFA during the media day when it was not open to the public.

My whole autoshow album can be found in my blog from the same day.

Yeah, both are different. The Erin Park one with light wheels was delivered in Ottawa Canada while the dark wheels one was delivered in Vancouver, Canada. I believe that is the same one featured on Matt Kwok's photoshoot and was owned by the 6speedonline.com member.

I misread what StE823 had posted and I thought that was the same car, I removed the link.

If number 22 is the pearl red one with dark wheels, yellow calipers, and black interior with red stitching, than yes, its number 22.

Oh wait, is the photo from the third post not the same car as the original post? I was looking at the third post photo and I thought that it had gold calipers.
