LFingA is right…having just returned from SEMA and seeing a production version LF-A in the flesh I am impressed all over again. I’ve seen a couple of LF-As in the flesh leading up to this, there was a nice red concept version at Toyota Megaweb in Japan that I molested, and then there was the Nurburgring race car at Tokyo Auto Salon last year. Yet something was different about seeing this production LF-A at SEMA.

First off, it looks F-R-E-S-H in matte black. As much as I think everyone wants to say matte black has jumped the shark as a color, it still looks damn good and I don’t think its going away anytime soon.

I really have a personal dislike for discussing topics that I know every auto blogger in the world is jamming their keyboard over. So instead, I just want to share one detail of the LF-A that supremely impressed me. The top image is my favorite detail of the LF-A at the moment. They are just these perfectly sculpted and shaped rear winglets that mirror the tail lamps edge. The way that those extend outward and essentially make that parallel double canard shape that we’ve all grown so accustom to on the front bumpers of cars, it’s just so clean and yet massively aggressive to look at on a production car!

Here’s two more random snaps of the car I took:

The world is so much better with Japanese super cars in it.
