Default LFA colors never produced

So by my account, there are seven "special" LFA colors that were never produced:
- Aqua (9K0)
- Ivory White (9J8) -- EDIT, DOES EXIST! --
- Lavender (9J9)
- Lime Green (9J6)
- Mint Green (9K1) -- EDIT, DOES EXIST! --
- Moss Green (9K2)
- Passionate Pink (9J4)

Do any of these exist?

Pretty sure there was some kind of a green LFA posted somewhere in this forum before.

Too bad no pink though.

For the most part green isn't a very desired color on most cars to begin with regardless of exotic or mainstream status. Not surprised by that list

There are a couple of LFAs that were wrapped in pink, but not painted pink from the factory.

Jealousy is an unbecoming trait... but sometimes it's hard to ignore. You're going to have to work extra hard to bury those feelings after we tell you what Paris Hilton has apparently received for her 30th birthday. Okay, just tilt your head back and breathe. Hilton's LFA still wears its factory yellow paint, though we wouldn't be surprised to see (and hear) it roaming the streets of LA in a shade of pink very soon. According to the Daily Mail, Hilton's 29-year-old boyfriend, entrepreneur Cy Waits, picked up the V10-powered Lexus two-door and surprised the heiress ahead of her birthday celebration.
Then she traded in her yellow one for a white one.

Still looking for examples of the possibly non-existent seven colors.

Ivory White would look nice with a saddle and black interior

I have seen pictures of lime green, but don't know where they're from. The fresh green from Florida was recently sold in Cleveland but I don't know if it stayed in Ohio.

Definitely would like to see more of the greens in production from. Holding out hope.

There were a couple rumors on twitter last year of a Passionate Pink sold in the Middle East region, but I heard from another Lexus source that it was one of the few colors not ordered. Lexus remains tight-lipped, committed to customer privacy.

All that said, there are a ton of LFAs unaccounted for. Who knows what colors they are?

All the pictures I saw floating around the internet about the "lime green" LFA were actually of the fresh green Florida one.

Confirmed with my friends over @ Ekanooracing in Bahrain... (Nov. 12')

They actually custom built an Ivory White Nürburgring Edition LFA for someone in Bahrain..

Also, has Polished Wheels (non ring)



Enjoy,
