LFA Marks Toyota's Failed F1 Venture

The Lexus LFA has been a long time in the making - nine years in fact. I suspect that Toyota have been ready to launch it for more than a few of those years.

Why? Because this is the car that Toyota designed to celebrate its first F1 victory. And that was probably a scaling back of its original goal to celebrate a championship of some description.

With Toyota's team now consigned to history I guess there was no reason to hold back on the LFA.

Mind you at £340k it would have been cheaper to pick up a remaindered F1 car in Toyota's end of season sell-off.
