Very nice. I wonder if that is a new prototype, or the same one that has been repainted several times now ?

So I take this is not a repainted LFA, but a brand new prototype (3rd one in US, to be exact)????

I can't say. But note the interior and brake calipers.

Then I guess its safe to say it is the same matte black/white/grey repainted once again.

*Also notice the winglets still have exposed screws which were also present on the early prototypes.

It's obviously the repainted one. I see the same color calipers on the brakes as before (the deep gray). The winglets look the same, no screws just little 'lines' I think they updated that back on the previous repaints. The orange looks the same as the Nurburgring edition. They should have just added the wing, the wheels the front pieces and said it was! I'd be interested to see that car in the flesh!

they can paint it 10 more times ending on pink or puke green and I'd still take it.
