I hope some owners who post here attend and share some experiences.
Looks like a top shelf shindig.
It seems like it has been a long time since Lexus did something really nice like this for LFA owner.
Hoping they preview a car during the event.

Agreed but I don't want to expect too much, for me better to get an upside surprise

I would be into a Lexus version of a Revuelto with a hard top convertible (yummy), ok unlikely

Nothing specific. Rumors of a V8TT hybrid. Badging? Lexus, GR, Toyota?

Thanks for your reply, ya this car is truly a mystery, and the info we have is quite limited. I’ve heard that it might be launched under the GR brand instead of carrying the Lexus badge, but the accuracy of this information is still uncertain.

Just finished the LFA event (Roar of the Angels)... the Lexus North America and Toyota teams did an amazing job. 42 cars showed up which I believe is the largest gathering of LFAs ever... you will see tons of social media and content hitting soon I am sure.

Some pictures from the event. One of the original engineers on the car was there as well - Tamura-San. He was kind enough to sign my intake.

That was Tamura-San who signed our cars…the deputy engineer who joined the project when Toyota decided to build a CF chassis.

Photo dump from a whirlwind 48 hrs in SoCal. The 20th anniversary of the debut of the LFA concept car in 2005. First pic is Tamura-San who signed our cars.

Lexus shipped our cars to Newport Beach. A record 42 cars together! Four Nurburgring cars. The hospitality and attention to detail…world class!
