Lexus LFA
After we saw the first video and photos with the new Lexus LF-A (or LFA we don't know for sure), thanks to an Italian website we bring you the official photos with this amazing supercar and the first technical details. The new Lexus LF-A carries a 4.8-liter V10 engine (built using Titanium valves, connecting rods, forged aluminum pistons, dry sump lubrication and a titanium exhaust manifold) capable to deliver 560 hp at 8,700 RPM (that's 116.5 hp/liter) and 354 lb.-ft. of torque at 6,800 RPM, while the redline is at 9,000 RPM. Connected to a six-speed sequential gearbox and with a Torsen limited slip differential, the 3,263 pounds (48/52 front-to-rear weight distribution) vehicle has a power-to-weight ratio of 5.8 pounds/hp. Due to the fact that 65 percent of the body is carbon fiber the supercar shows an impressive sprint from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 3.7 seconds while the top speed is limited to of 325 km/h or 201.94 mph. The amazing design is completed by the 20-inch BBS wheels wrapped in 265/35 ZR20 Bridgestone tires in front and 305/30 ZR20 in the rear. Production will be limited to 500 units!
