What a generous and kind hearted man yianni is - committing an entire afternoon to drive someone else's LFA to drag out a series to generate profit for his channel lol
right? he knew he wasn't going to buy one from the young man, but vibed with him so well he was like Im gonna give this kid a once in a lifetime experience
You’re absolutely right, still can’t believe I got to see the LFA. Don’t care what all the haters say but Yanni is a diamond hands down such a nice guy honestly loved every minute with him!
Lexus UK should give Nixon a promotion of some sort.. How be represents the brand Lexus; having Yianni make a special... He did put Lexus in the limelight 👏👏✌🏼
Are you sure? This guy has visited his dealership thrice, and yet not bought a car from him. Called it off altogether, after getting all the possible content out of him 😂
People didn't want to "pay $350k for a Lexus" so some cars sat new for MSRP at dealers until as late as 2019. It took a while for the market to get over the badge and realize that its one of the greatest cars ever conceived
Trust me yianni, you have nooooooo clue why people rate and love the LFA, even this video shows that you really and truly have no clue, but what's good is you're sorta learning
For a guy who built his entire following around cars, you sure know very little about cars and their history lol The LFA was a statement car HANDBUILT by Lexus. The CEO of Toyota did not give a damn about the cost, they lost money on it. He only had one goal in mind: Build the best car ever. Period. They went on and achieved exactly that. This car is a masterpiece. I'd recognise its sound on a blind test among a 100 supercars.
The documentary on the factory and building is incredible too. It's on TH-cam and shows exactly why this is *the* best car ever build. A shame (or maybe good) not more people know about it. The LC500 is about to become expensive pretty soon too with the discontinuation and more car enthusiasts looking into them.
Jeremy Clarkson told us that this car is the best car he’s ever driven in the world. That’s was many years ago as well when he did top gear. I’m surprised at how many people not know how special it is
And that man has driven like all of the cars in the world. So i think he knows what he was saying. LFA is an unicorn. Too good to be true. And hence you cannot buy one. You hardly see one.
Salesman from Lexus has got good knowledge about cars! He defo needs to be put on a car tv show or be more often in Yianni’s videos! Another great video of Yianni! Looking forward for the next one. Hope we will see Nixon again in the next video !
@@IbraNNB7at the time it was and that was way back in 2002 you would expect in 2012 for him to say the carrera GT if he still thought it was but he did not, he chose the LFA and he mentioned 5 times. His first when he drove it in tg 19, he mentioned it before the episode started and when it ended he cemented it and made the conclusion it was the best car he’s ever driven, he might be forgiven to saying it in the excitement and heat of the moment if he only said it once but he did not, he mentioned it in the Alfa Romeo episode of season 21 that he’d rather drive an LFA to a party and arrive in that Alfa, mentioned it before the release of tg 22 when they saw the announcement for the RCF and in the RCF review went back to talk about how it was the best car, in the special where they embark to find the worst car together with may, I think it’s in 2015 or 16 he goes on to drive the LFA and also says it’s the best car he’s ever driven, also does it in the grand tour where the lady who owns the LFA, Paris Hilton was a celebrity in the rpc, and he’s finally done a TH-cam short talking about how it’s the best. Also he makes a quick remark in season 20 when he says the stig says the f12 is the only car that can hold a candle to the LFA and from his mood you can tell he doesn’t agree. And that statement shows you the stig also thinks it’s the best car in the world. Jeremy has never gone back to a car as many times as he has the LFA the novelty always wears off of him real quick but for this one it never did, so I would take his word for it and being that he’s driven everything and still says that, even the P1 being in there, then that’s not questions asked the best car in the world
@@NoNO-th3vv yeah, otherwise we can bring in the big boys; Pagani Huayra R, Porsche 911 991 RSR, McLaren F1, Lamborghini Essenza SCV12, Ferrari FXX K etc.
Agreed, but I think they have already removed it from the line up. I have the older model but I went into Jag 2 weeks ago for a new f-type and they couldn't help me.
The LFA is arguably The BEST sounding car ever built. What Lexus & Yamaha did to make that engine note is out of this world... It might be a Lexus, but its bespoke, hand built & was crafted in a building that was built specifically to make that car... And just like the Veyron, every car built, they lost money on... That car is a Million dollar car for a reason. And the Nurburgring Edition is even more special.
Trouble is, fast cars are so common these days and no matter what you buy, you'll see something faster going past you. The LC500 is a different ball game entirely. It's not going to tear up the tarmac, but it'll transport you over that tarmac with a unique style and class of it's own. We've owned several Lexus cars and cadged an LC500 off the dealer while ours was in for a service. Absolutely fell in love with it but sadly it was out of our budget.
The first TH-camr to get an LFA will be what we all want to see. It’s the best sounding car by far. And yes I know CGT but the LFA’s exhaust was tuned by Yamaha they make musical instruments they know sound.
5:45 Actually the guy is wrong, the LFA was a huge loss for Lexus and didn't sell out until 10 years after it came out when the last one was bought, having sat literally 10 years at the dealer lot
I have known Vijay for years, proper car enthusiast but more importantly the guy is a legend, one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet! Great to see Ibby too!
For a salesperson who never saw the real thing before, he did an amazing job at selling the idea of the car. Even though yianni won’t buy a lexus this series is amazing content for that dealership
Yo are you serious you know nothing of LFA… this is the holy grail of modern supercars till they slacked too long to release it. Thus only so many made and yes they have been well over $1,000,000 for collectors. But resale was $600,000. For $80,000 LFA?! Steal
The amount of amazing and interesting cars you can get for 80k is astonishing tbh. How he’s not been to Alfa and driven a Giulia Quadrifoglio I will never understand
Well, I know that LFA is kinda out of his league since he would have to sell 2-3 Revueltos just to own 1, but just the sound alone of LFA is worth everything. Imagine having Yamaha(music departament) tuning your engine, no wonder it sounds majestic 🥰
Lfa is a smiles per mile car the noise is like no other car they spent more time on getting sound right then any other part of the car and how cool was that taking him out in the car respect for that 👍
Yani even jeremy clarkson adored that lfa and hes a true petrol head. If you have the means get that car. Just the sound alone that it makes gives me chills no car sounds that raw and good bro
Truly a grail car, been fortunate enough to get a passenger ride in one back when it launched, still buzzing from that experience. Forget all the other 'special' cars out there, this is the one for me! Also watch the youtube documentary on how these were built, I think it will explain just how special this car is. 500 made, nothing else like it from Lexus, the price is only going one way!
@@c04-i8hVWAG don't have any experience in Formula 1 either any formula 1 technology yet (not yet, Audi will enter Formula 1 soon if the rumors are real)
Very nice that you made that happen for him! This is by far the best sounding production car ever! I think it would be my dream car. The C30 Polestar would be a close second.
You walked past Volvo in your last video. Everyone says they’re an old man car but you could get one of their Polestar tuned cars for £80k and it’ll blow your socks off!!
The LFA actually sat on the Dealer lots for up to three years unsold because of what you mentioned. They did not sell out right away and were considered a major loss by the company. Absolutely beautiful cars. The LC500 with some wheels, lowered and exhaust are dirty AF.
I was fortunate enough to have a very small drive in a Nurburgring edition. I did no more than 15mph but even that was an amazing experience. You have to see one irl to really appreciate it!
As an Aussie living in the UK, and having grown up with so many JDM cars - it’s great to see that the Japanese are getting the respect for building some beautiful, exotic cars.
The engine was made in collaboration with Yamaha, Yamaha the company that make musical instruments, they also make bikes that sound amazing (crossplane inline 4 R1). the sound itself makes it worth a million, no other car as far as I'm concerned, sounds great from the factory, with stock exhaust
Yeah this is the biggest marketing bs that LFA fanboys keeps parroting for some reason, just about every other superbike can rev faster and higher, and many of them used a analog tach
That's a handmade japanese perfection. The toggles, switches you touch with cold metal , the yamaha co developed V10 revving to 9k , the quality of material used to make it . I can see 1.2 mil easily. This car is peak precision engineering. Due to this we have the Toyota GR models today
Couple of Points! Firstly, whats going on with that Alfa 159 outside the Yiannimize unit Yianni, does it need rescuing?! Second... No one going to mention the Lexus RC F ? Probs a bit more hardcore for him!
@havefun1226 😂, the noise is a highlight and the interior is a masterpiece. There are too many things to mention. Remember, because of modern technology corrupting today's performance care, pure cars like the LFA will become more and more sought after. Now most cars have 2 tablets stuck to the dash.
@@biafo4541 yeah i know but he looking for a car he is gone keep like maybe a few years an m3 would be a better choice one whit the carbon bucket seats and the dashboard screen it stands above the interior of lfa The lfa might handle better but for daily driving its not gone be a big difference
What a superbly lovely fellow Nixon is. Considering it all started with him shaking your hand when he engaged with you on his car yard. Lexus should value him beyond super highly. What an advert for him and them!
@@dennissmith7214 hot garbage? nothing is really garbage about it. In my opinion it's better than the LFA except for the engine and sound. LC is a gem of a car
Nixon's explanation of the digital rev counter is a perfect nod to what Richard Hammond showcased on TG years ago. I can still hear his voice describing it. What an incredible car!

Story about rev gauge was a marketing gimmick. GMA t50 has an analog gauge, spinning up faster than lfa.
True. Also nearly every superbike in the 90's had analogue dials and bikes rev up super quick having no flywheel.
That was 13 years ago though. If I'm not mistaken this was the car that flippen started the digital rev and speedometer sickness

That's a handmade japanese perfection. The toggles, switches you touch with cold metal , the yamaha co developed V10 revving to 9k , the quality of material used to make it . I can see 1.2 mil easily. This car is peak precision engineering. Due to this we have the Toyota GR models today
Couple of Points! Firstly, whats going on with that Alfa 159 outside the Yiannimize unit Yianni, does it need rescuing?!
Second... No one going to mention the Lexus RC F ? Probs a bit more hardcore for him!
True ands it’s cheaper than the LC 500
So cool you could bring him out. My speakers are shaking like his legs! Awesome.
M3 g80 would be an option
He made it difficult for himself now after driving an LFA, a new M3 is already not the most fun car and now to go an test drive any car after this...
@@biafo4541 hm i dont know i think the only thing the lfa has is the noise its old tech now
Interior is also not the nicest
@havefun1226 😂, the noise is a highlight and the interior is a masterpiece.
There are too many things to mention.
Remember, because of modern technology corrupting today's performance care, pure cars like the LFA will become more and more sought after.
Now most cars have 2 tablets stuck to the dash.
@@biafo4541 yeah i know but he looking for a car he is gone keep like maybe a few years an m3 would be a better choice one whit the carbon bucket seats and the dashboard screen it stands above the interior of lfa
The lfa might handle better but for daily driving its not gone be a big difference
Really enjoying this series. Taking a subject but being free to meander down the odd rabbit hole in the search :) I like it
The Lexus LFA is one of the best cars of all time.
Nixon’s reactions were so genuine and fun to watch. I’m sure I would’ve cried though if I was lucky enough to sit inside a LFA.
Yianni, tell us you know nothing about cars without telling us... Everybody knows they're well over 600k
He said it’s staring price was 350k
@@Jib_jibs That price was from factory. Nowadays they're worth upwards of 600k or more.
@@Michael_M991you'll never get one under a million today.

What a superbly lovely fellow Nixon is.
Considering it all started with him shaking your hand when he engaged with you on his car yard.
Lexus should value him beyond super highly.
What an advert for him and them!
0:10 whhatttttttt???????
I also thought the US President Richard Nixon😂😂😂
Because the LC500 is hot garbage! 🤨
@@dennissmith7214 you mean your mama in hot garbage?!
@@dennissmith7214 hot garbage? nothing is really garbage about it. In my opinion it's better than the LFA except for the engine and sound. LC is a gem of a car
Nixon's explanation of the digital rev counter is a perfect nod to what Richard Hammond showcased on TG years ago. I can still hear his voice describing it. What an incredible car!
50 videos until Yianni finally buys the freaking car 🙄
£2-3 K profit per video .... he'll be there soon 🤔
The sound alone 🔥
Yeah 😍
I hope my V12 build sounds that good 🤞
7:51 definitely not worth a million
I think it’s the exclusivity and rarity that makes it that much
@@SirAMG63 plus the engineering, I mean mostly the engineering
You know nothing about cars 😂😂stick to your Mercedes A class
@@rg6982 you must want a reaction. I would never buy an a-class lil man. u better stay incognito
