Lexus LFA - The Story, The Details, The Sound

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 started his first car website at the age of 19 and promptly dented his first ever test car. Surprisingly he’s still at this motoring journalism thing 7 years later. Ciro is a contributor to Cars.co.za’s content portal. Catch him present OverdriveTV on SABC3’s Expresso Show every Friday morning.
