The idea is to show the world the durability of the Lexus LFA. For this, Toyota invited Paul Walker and took two models of the model, both with 48 thousand kilometers covered, to go around the racetrack in Willow Springs, California (USA). But be careful, these two models are models of the press and with this I have half the speech done.
The press models, in addition to suffering the natural wear and tear of mileage, are also subjected to intense tests by journalists. He's drifts week in, week in. He's braking down to the tiniest inch. It is down to earth in more than 70% of the kilometers covered… If there are any models that are truly tested, these are the ones. – We also do tests of these, you can see here.
Just to remind you, the Lexus LFA comes equipped with a 4.8 liter V10 engine that develops 560 hp of power and 480 Nm of torque. The race from 0 to 100 km/h takes just 3.7 seconds and the top speed is an incredible 325 km/h. But let's get down to it, the video:
