Black is sick!!

I have heard someone from here [I would not name him] is spreading rumors that these are dealership owned LFAs with elaborate hoax deliveries to company employees posing as owners. ROFL!!!!! Just ludicrous.

Send PM on who. I have an idea. The hate for this car is ridiculous, what kind of enthusiast hates on a V-10 carbon fiber supercar, the only supercar from Japan.

Rather they are not an enthusiast.

Thanks for sharing

Ooh, someone who appears to be in their 30s

It is interesting that this owner got such an early car

Of the first 2 Chicagoland allocations
Both went to McGrath

Either they moved allocations across dealerships
Once a customer passed or this person came on
after the original group of interested folks

I agree. They all definitely are owners of LFAs. It is just that haters seem to be wanting to hate.LOL

I love watching these videos of real people taking their LFAs home.

Yea I thought both went to McGrath also? I will check with them and find out. I was expecting to see their dealer in the background and it obviously was another dealer.

The worst week to have such a nice car delivered in the midwest with all this snow/salt.

Hard to do if Toyota is providing the actual sales data on their monthly reports. The liability would be substantial. Those reports will probably be the most accurate of them all, as long as sales are counted as actual title transfer.

Yamaha V10? Hmm, maybe he meant yamaha tuned...? Still, looks better in motion with those shiny wheels. Liked the dark ones better. I also wonder if there is a way to get the car in nothing but a clear coat with carbon fiber bare? That'd be something sweeeeet.
