4雷克萨斯LFA超级跑车仍Sale In America

With 2019 sales figures coming in, we noticed something rather interesting withLexus' overall sales reportthat's worth examining further. Along with its current lineup of sedans, coupes, crossovers, and a couple of SUVs, Toyota's luxury brand managed to sell a total of three LFA supercars last year. That's right. TheLexus LFAofficially ended production back in 2012 and yet new examples are still selling. We've known for a while now that there are unsold LFAs sitting on a few dealerships lots scattered across the country, but the automaker actually sold50 percent more LFAs last year than in 2018. How many, to be precise? Three.

In 2018, a grand total of two were sold. The LFA was a limited production, 4.8-liter naturally aspirated V10-powered supercar from the get-go and has since achieved icon status.

Built from 2010 through 2012, a total of 500 examples were built, with 450 of them being the "standard" version while another 50 had the track-focused Nurburgring package, which added an extra 10 horsepower, carbon fiber elements, and some transmission adjustments. Interestingly, Lexus still couldn't sell all 500 LFAs. With a total of 553 horsepower and rear-wheel-drive, the LFA supercar is clearly not for everyone. It also carried a base price of $375,000, an awful lot of money for a Lexus. Collectors, however, knew very well what they were buying. But not everyone is a collector, as Lexus has since learned.

While the LFA's halo car successor, theLC 500, is more of a grand tourer than anything else, it's still less powerful and a far more suitable daily driver. TheLC 500 Convertiblemodel has also just recently been added to the lineup.
