You'll probably get some pushback because the LX clientele tends to be conservative, but that certainly makes a statement! Could have had a decent 2nd trail truck for how much that cost, I personally can't imagine (or afford) spending 10,000 on a body kit, but if it makes you happy, that's all that matters.
It will definitely turn heads.
With the fact that it cannot see any trails now, I do like the look of that rear diffuser.

2 questions...

Why, in the first place?

What are the 4 propeller-looking things that look bolted to the corners of the roof? Do they rotate or whistle? I'm thinking deer repellers, possibly.

Well it makes more sense as a showpiece. How big are those wheels?


LFA is so rare, only 500 produced for a one year production run.

Other than those propeller-things, it looks very cool for suburban driving in a snow-free area with perfect roads

I would probably never buy a new car or service my cars at a dealership where they display something so terrible like this (of course, I don't mean the LFA).

I think it looks really cool.

I think the propeller things are just the street lights above the car that look like they are attached to the car at certain angles.

What's the asking price on the LFA, if it is listed?
