Talking Lexus LF-A Will Go Into Production… Finally! (plus new celica)

http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...ticleId=144846

"... Some excitement will be generated by the fact that Toyota's new president, Akio Toyoda, will be taking over in June. Sure to be more interesting to the show-going public is this tidbit: The production version of the 600-horsepower V10-powered Lexus LF-A supercar, our source says, will not make its debut in Frankfurt but instead will be unveiled in Tokyo.

Another highlight of the Toyota stand will be the reveal of a project rumored to have been put on hold — the Toyota-Subaru jointly developed rear-wheel-drive coupe that employs an Impreza platform and drivetrain. To improve mileage and emissions of the current normally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine, Toyota has developed a unique head unit for the boxer power plant, said to generate around 220 horsepower. Toyota will also display a full range of hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles as well as the latest EV and battery technology. ... "




Googled around and saw quite a few people saying that the LF-A will be there. Sounds like this is going to be one exciting auto show!

ps- posted it in the lexus prototype section =... but i guess no one looks there lol

Might want to use the search function. There's a reason why you didn't get any interest.
