Back up for sale with a huge reduction in price looking to pick up a new toy and I need room in my garage. The chasis has less then 30K miles on it but the motor has less then 10K miles. This has won many awards and has been featured in numerous magazine like Super Street and Turbo magazine. The car has been built with very rare and expensive high quality parts including a JDM Top Secret 3S-GE motor(short block tuned by Top Secret). The car is currently not running that well and it seems like something is wrong in cylinder #3. Compression test results were #1: 110 #2: 110 #3: 100 #4: 110. During idle the car is very shacky and when you give it any throttle the rpm drops to the point of almost turning off. I am not a mechanic so I can't tell you whats wrong with it exactly but the car is being sold as is. Repairing it wont cost you an arm and a leg but it will need some work. I planned on transforming this car from a show car into a track toy but I have decided to go a different route. Pink slip in hand.

Lexus LF-LC Concept goes blue, remains happy
Thu, 29 Nov 2012Until the day when we can see a production version of the Lexus LF-LC Concept, we'll just make do with seeing the sleek two-door in different colors for now. After first showing us the car in a Candy Apple Red color at the Detroit Auto Show, Lexus has brought its LF-LC Blue (in a deep ocean blue) from Down Under to LA.
Aside from the new color, there's nothing new for us to see here. That means we were still ogling over its flowing body lines, impressed by its 500-horsepower hybrid drive system and looking forward to possibly seeing the car go into production.

Autoblog Podcast #339:
Lexus LFA owner gets town to remove speed bump
Fri, 17 May 2013What do you do if you have enough money to buy a Lexus LFA but can't get the car safely to your house? Get local government involved, of course. Rune Berge Vik, of Stavanger, Norway, did just that after he bought a Lexus LFA (the only LFA in the Nordic region according to tv2.no) last year only to find out that it could not clear a speed bump in his neighborhood.
To remedy the situation, Vik got in touch with his city, which had the speed bump removed. Talk about your tax dollars hard at work. On the other hand, it's commendable that the man actually uses his supercar as a daily driver, and besides, doesn't a street-legal car have the right to access said public streets?
