Meade Lexus Customer First in United States to Receive LFA
1. Michigan Lexus Dealer Delivers First LFA Nationwide
A Michigan Lexus dealer’s customer
recently accepted delivery on the fifth
Lexus LFA to be produced—which was
the very first LFA to be delivered in the
United States.
This Meade Lexus of Lakeside customer
took delivery in Florida, currently making
this Pearl Grey supercar the only LFA in
the Sunshine State. The customer will be
returning to the Metro Detroit area in
the spring, however, so Tri-county area drivers just might catch a glimpse in the near future.

The Lexus LFA, unveiled 22 years after the first-ever Lexus, brings a distinctively different flavor to the Lexus
brand.
“For Lexus, a brand that aims to provide customers enlightened moments and memorable experiences, the de-
velopment of a world-class supercar was an indispensable next step,” says Haruhiko Tanahashi, chief engineer of
product planning at the Lexus Development Center.
Only 500 units will be built, at a maximum rate of only 20 per month due to each one being hand-built by a team
of skilled craftsmen. The unique sound of the LFA’s 552-horsepower engine, which contributes to the vehicle’s
top-speed potential of 200+mph, can be witnessed in the popular glass-shattering commercial, “Pitch”, that
played prior to the vehicle’s release.
