LFA was displayed on a turn table at the Calgary Auto Show. It is the only Lexus LFA in Calgary owned by a business man.
It was the grey color (don't know exactly the name, but probably the same color Roy Mallady's #499 was).
It was a huge crowd attraction. It was attracting a bigger crowd than the other exotics like Lambo, Ferrari etc. There was a flock of young kids who were gushing over the LFA and they were passionately discussing every little feature of the car. At one point, I told them the grilles at the back are radiators to achieve a rear bias and answered their question regarding how much downforce the spoiler adds (about 560 lbs@ 180 mph).
Words cannot describe the presence, aura and proportions it exudes in real life. Pictures just simply don't do justice to this car especially in this color.
Not having the small winglets also exaggerate the width of the LFA and there are lots of tiny details one simply does not see in pictures. It was truly a sight to behold.

That's really nice of him to share his LFA for others to enjoy 
Phenomenal car and I agree it needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. I finally got to see one at the IS Ride and Drive last summer, fantastic!!
