Let's dive into the captivating world of automotive excellence with
the 2012 Lexus LFA, a true gem among sports cars. This remarkable
vehicle stands as a testament to precision engineering and
unparalleled performance, crafted during a limited two-year
production run. Out of the 500 LFAs ever produced, only 64 were
bestowed with the prestigious N�rburgring package, elevating this
car to elite status within the automotive realm.
From its birthplace in Balise Lexus of West Springfield,
Massachusetts, to its journeys through Florida and California, this
LFA has garnered experiences and stories that now await its next
chapter with you. This particular LFA is not just a car; it's a
piece of automotive history. It's one of approximately 25 units
tailored specifically for the US market, adding to its exclusivity
and allure.
Underneath the striking exterior lies a powerhouse-a 4.8-liter V10
engine developed in collaboration with Yamaha. This engineering
marvel boasts titanium components, individual throttle bodies, and
dual VVT-i variable valve timing, delivering a staggering 562
horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a six-speed
Automated Sequential Gearbox that underwent revisions for the
N�rburgring Package, this LFA offers lightning-fast shifts and
precise control, making every drive a symphony of performance.
This particular model stands tall as one of only seven U.S.
N�rburgring Package cars, distinguished by its orange (9K5) finish
that exudes unparalleled energy and style. As you explore this
masterpiece, you'll notice its distinctive features, including
triple central exhaust outlets that hint at its powerful
performance, side air intakes designed for optimal aerodynamics, a
vented hood for enhanced cooling, F Fender badges that symbolize
its racing pedigree, and bi-xenon HID headlights with optional
washers, ensuring clear visibility even in the most thrilling of
driving conditions.
Speaking of the N�rburgring Package, let's delve deeper into its
significance. Priced at $70k, this upgrade package not only
enhances the car's performance but also elevates its aerodynamic
prowess. With carbon-fiber aero enhancements, including a front
spoiler, canards, and a fixed rear wing, along with a revised
suspension and lightweight alloy wheels, the N�rburgring edition is
a track-ready masterpiece that excites enthusiasts and collectors
alike.
Inside the cockpit, luxury meets technology seamlessly. The 10-way
power-adjustable heated seats, trimmed in exquisite black
Alcantara, provide comfort and support during spirited drives.
Carbon-fiber accents adorn the interior, showcasing the car's
meticulous attention to detail. The Mark Levinson audio system,
navigation, and backup camera ensure that every journey is not just
thrilling but also convenient and entertaining.
Records show that this LFA was originally delivered to Balise Lexus
of West Springfield, Massachusetts in July of 2012. It spent 6
years in Lexus' possession, until it was sold to its first owner, a
resident of Florida, in 2018. The car spent 2 years in the sunny
state of Florida, eventually being sold to the second owner out in
Montana in March of 2019. For the next 3 years, the vehicle
remained in Montana. Eventually, the car found its way to the
golden state of California in March of 2022.
So, if you're ready to own a piece of automotive history and
experience the thrill of driving a meticulously crafted
masterpiece, look no further than this 2012 Lexus LFA #349. It's
more than just a car; it's a legacy waiting to be embraced. Don't
just settle for the ordinary; embrace the extraordinary with every
mile you conquer in this iconic machine.
