There might not be tons of storage space, but sure you can store a skateboard. Just as Tony Hawk, as he's trying out and understanding the Lexus LFA in person. Anyone wants to take a guess if he's ordering one?

He probably will end up ordering one after driving it, i'm pretty sure he's amped about the fact that he can fit a skate board in the back, will probably have a custom one built just for display back there.

Wonder what color he will order, and a Ring Edition maybe?

Are there still unsold LFA allocations available even to this date?

*chuckles to self* @ skateboard in compartment picture. I can see these pics used as a spinoff for future parody/chain emails of some humorous sort.

Would be cool if he got one, it'll be like an upgrade from his previous SC430.

From the title, I thought this was one of your thread where you're picking your family up at the airport

haha, i didn't say this lfa wasn't a loaner to tony

but i guess for lexus to be willing to loan you a lfa, they need to know you have the purchasing power

That video would've been as cool if not cooler had it been shot from the same angle as the pic.

Default Tony Hawk jumps Lexus LFA on skateboard

Tony Hawk jumps Lexus LFA on skateboard



Give a Lexus LFA to an auto journalist and there's going to be an attempt to drift it. Give that same LFA to the gents at Blendtec and they're likely to see if it, or at least a piece of it, will blend. Then turn that LFA over to Tony Hawk to use for his birthday and he will, naturally, line the thing up outside of his office and see if he can ollie it.

Sure, he had the help of a generous ramp, but we can't blame him. The LFA is $375,000 of sensitive parts that wouldn't react well, nor inexpensively, to flying skateboard trucks
