Edmunds Drives the Lexus LFA

Kevin July 21st, 2009

Lexus LFA Hood Photo

As it turns out, Edmunds also had the chance to drive the Lexus LFA at Goodwood, where the supercar prototype continued to impress:

The Lexus LF-A is the sort of car in which you could spend hours whittling away at your lap times while confident it would never misbehave. You would emerge fresh from your stint, already anticipating your next turn at the wheel. In other words, this car drives like the perfect long-distance racer.

Some 20 years ago Lexus stunned the world with a luxury sedan, and now it has the potential to do the same with a supercar. It is an opportunity that should not be missed.

Great selection of photos with the article as well, including this nice shot of the paddle shifts:
