Lexus LFA – The Story, The Details, The Sound

Ciro De Siena

20 Mar 2020

Thanks to the Crossley and Webb dealership in Cape Town, Ciro De Siena and our video team were afforded the opportunity to spend time with one of the rarest cars on earth, the Lexus LFA.

Only 500 of these were made and there are only three reported to be in South Africa, so this really was a unicorn encounter.

In this video, we spend a lot of time getting to know the car, while Ciro takes us through the history of it's development, takes you on a tour of the interior and the engine, and of course turns it on to hear what is surely one of the world's best-sounding cars ever made.

Ciro built his first car website back in his university days and despite denting his first ever test car, it launched his career. He's still at this car journalism gig 16 years later and over the years has hosted live TV segments on national television and hosts a regular car segment on CapeTalk radio. He is most at his happiest however producing content for the Cars.co.za Youtube channel.
