Super Low Mile Lexus LFA in Absolutely Red Sells For $890K
The $890K winning bid isn't surprising for such a low-mile and unique LFA, and it makes this the most expensive non-Nurburgring LFA sold on BaT to date!
The Enigmatic Lexus LFA: A Modern Legend
The Lexus LFA stands out as one of the most revered modern supercars, cherished for its rarity and performance. Despite its initial lukewarm reception upon launch, collectors have increasingly recognized its value in recent years, leading to a surge in demand and soaring prices.
The Absolutely Red Beauty
Among the 500 LFAs produced during its limited production span, this specific model, clad in Absolutely Red, epitomizes exclusivity. Its striking appearance, accentuated by 20-inch BBS alloy wheels and yellow brake calipers, highlights its rarity, making it a coveted collector's item.
Craftsmanship and Performance
Boasting a 4.8-liter naturally-aspirated V10 engine, this LFA delivers exhilarating performance with 552 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque. Mated with a six-speed Automated Sequential Gearbox and a Torsen limited-slip differential, it offers a thrilling driving experience synonymous with the Lexus LFA legacy.
Design and Engineering
Led by Kengo Matsumoto, the LFA's design showcases aerodynamic carbon-fiber bodywork fused with a carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer chassis. Triple central exhaust outlets, vented hood, and bi-xenon HID headlights further accentuate its cutting-edge design and technological prowess.
Luxurious Interior and Pristine Condition
Step inside, and you're greeted with a luxurious interior adorned with Cream leather upholstery and carbon-fiber accents. Despite its rarity, this LFA, numbered 107, maintains immaculate condition, reflecting its minimal mileage and meticulous care.
Comprehensive Offerings and Documentation
Sold with a plethora of accessories, including a luggage set, car cover, and spare keys, this LFA comes with a clean Carfax report and documentation, providing assurance of its provenance and quality. The inclusion of LFA-branded Tumi luggage adds an extra touch of sophistication.
The Continuing Saga
With the clock running down to zero on the Bring a Trailer auction, the final moments of bidding were tense, as one would expect for such a highly sought-after machine. And the winning bid came in at $890,000. We wouldn't have been surprised if that amount had been higher. But reaching upward of $900K still feels like growth for LFA prices overall.
