Not a chance. The body work being carbon is all going to have to be custom & done in house. I doubt you'd even get this repaired within a years time. And once you start removing things from the body I'm certain you'll find more issues that'll need repaired/replaced. The cost if I had to say in terms of repairs is going to be well over $550,000 between parts/labor. The Carbon Hood alone is like $17k. And doors I think are between $45-70k apiece. This is going to be a very interesting repair, and is it ever going to be a costly an timely one.
I see LFA I click right away 😮💨 Anyway this is extremely depressing seeing a LFA in this condition. The body being full carbon is just a tiny bit of why this car was so expensive. Also for those reading the V10 is as compact as a V6 engine.

Came here for this. Who buys a literal legend then mucks it up with a sticker you'd see on the back of a nerds Jeep Compass at a comicon. Especially cringey since the sticker implies he knows what hes doing or something while he spins off the road in the rain.
You guys are the only ones who were empathetic and interested in the next steps. Everyone else online had crass inappropriate jokes, like Chu wasn’t sad and devastated his damn self. I’ve met him and what you see on camera is what you get. He did well to choose your team to help document the rebuild. Thanks for posting!
I used to do parts at Lexus and LFA parts *if available* were not as much as you'd imagine but still wild. It's also super cool to see the underneath of such a rare exotic car. Hope it gets some love
Chu is one of the most humble guys around, can’t wait for the LFA to be back on the road. I’m not surprised that he’s fixing it he loves that car, im glad I got to sit in it a few times
As the LFA is my ultimate Dream car, the car i would chose if i could only drive 1 car for the rest of my life, i would absolutely fix this. It may be expensive and time consuming. But these cars are too legendary to just scrap and throw away. Look forward to seeing this LFA get another chance at life.
Truly a car that almost wasn’t even produced but still made it, just like this crash and car, truly such a story behind it, Bless Chu for fixing it, a true enthusiast
I love chu man, the picture on my profile pic is me sitting in this exact car. He knew this was my dream car because he saw me wearing a LFA hoodie and that was my first time ever seeing one lol .Every time I went to caffeine and octane I had a nice convo with him. When I heard it was wreaked felt like I lost a family member man shit was crazy. Glad to see you made this video.🙂
Of course my comment got deleted when I was being critical of the previous owner. I guess TH-cam is for kids now and adults don’t get to talk. I’ll clean it up a bit: previous owner is a complete 🤡
@@carsaregood911there’s videos of his kids climbing on the car and jumping on the windshield at car shows. He puts them up there for attention and likes the hate
@@RestrictingSignalProductions If I'm understanding correctly, he's putting them on his own car... ? sounds fine to me. Does it make the average car person cringe? Absolutely, but it's his car & he can do what he wants.
That Lexus LFA owner is awesome! He actually drives it and enjoys it! Mistakes happen its ok as long as the person is ok. The car is fixable & im so happy your going to fix it!
The creation of the V10 was lead by Lexus' chief engine designer Okamoto Takamitsu. The engine starts life at Toyota's Myochi plant. It is at this plant that the engine block is made from molted aluminium. The block is then sent to Toyota's Honsha factory. The same factory that used to be Toyota's F1 engine facility. The block will get milled, drilled and polished and emerges as a precise engine block. In a sealed room Takumi’s hone every sharp edge using precision polishing tools. After this a highly skilled Takumi pre-assembles the finished engine blocks to check if they fit precisely. Disassembled they travel as unit to Yamaha’s Iwata city plant. It is at this plant that 4 highly skilled Yamaha Takumi’s fully assemble V10. A process that takes 2,5 days for one engine. Before the engine gets put into an LFA, it undergoes a half day of exhaustive testing.
OMG thats amazing Chu's LFA is now a TH-cam car, CHU is an amazing guy and has a bunch of amazing rides, this was definetely one of his most amazing.....I sure hope it gets repaired.
So glad it’s going to be fixed! Curious what the final cost is and who is actually authorized to fix it. Not many places are authorized to fix those. I’m guessing it’s gonna be around $500k to fix, but absolutely worth it!
I'm excited to see this build process when it happens. Easily in my top 3 favorites, always heart warming that he actually drives and it and even more better that he was able to walk away and he's more than willing to rebuild it back to it's glory.
*LFA Track Kart* Good for thumbnails ✅ Would be cost effective ✅ No doors means more sound ✅ Purists will complain and boost engagement ✅ Extremely fun ✅ I mean... Or do it right and fix it (:
The article I read stated the owner hydroplaned and sideswiped a fire hydrant. If that’s the case then how did the drivers side get so badly damaged? Or even THAT MUCH of the rear end of the car?? Such a shame!! But, *YES!!!* if it were me, I’d repair it. With ultra low mileage, uber clean examples selling at over $1 million (I’ve seen one at $1.5 million) I think it’s worth it to get it fixed.
WOW I met this guy at a car show and when I saw his LFA I personally have never been that close to one because when you do go to the car show they tell you not to touch it and they always have tape around it I asked this guy can you rev your LFA in the back of my mind I thought he was going to saying no he then actually said yeah no problem I was like......wait what....... and he revved it up and it sounded amazing then I asked him a question I said why did you drive this car out like this aren't you afraid that it could be damaged he replied bro it's a car it's meant to be driven I don't care how expensive it is I enjoy driving it and anybody who keeps their car in the garage collecting dust is an idiot his word still stuck to me to this day because I have a car that I cherish and I try to keep it in the garage and now I drive it out as much as I can as I can
People are so hyped for the LFA now, and rightly so, they’re awesome. I remember them sitting in showrooms unsold with dealers looking to get out of them for almost any deal.
It's fascinating to observe the repair process of modern supercars because it allows us to gain insight into their construction and what lies beneath the bodywork. I'll definitely keep an eye on it.
I'm glad it's not just getting junked or something insane. Who knows though what will be found with that kind of impact - bent frame rails or something.... Lets hope not, I hope it's in all its former glory in a year!
holy shit, not only have i seen this car in person, but i met the guy who owns it when he brought his GT2RS to the porsche dealership i worked at. really cool guy, insane to see this happened to it. glad no one lost their life
The owner of this car is so cool, he took it out to shows and I saw him driving it around like at least once a month before it crashed. Sometimes i even saw it stuck in my old high school’s morning traffic, it was wild.
I found a lot of the parts to repair it already and it doesn’t look like there is much in terms of frame damage. All the parts are 3-8k even a mirror if you find a drivers side one.
I don't know if I've ever watched something on TH-cam that made me this sad and nauseated at the same time. It's like a sacred object has been desecrated.
someone tag tavarish in here! EDIT: In all honesty, thank god he came out unscathed and seems like a cool dude! And a massive THANK YOU that hes gonna get it fixed. And like he said, every car got a story to tell. Kudos and good luck to Chu!
If there is one thing, which I hate on japanese car maker policies, it would be the price outside Japan vs in Japan. In most cases, outside Japan is 5 times more expensive compared to prices in Japan. So it's worth buying directly from Japan and pay shipping and customs fees. You still save about 50%.
If the car hit a fire hydrant sideways like that, the tub took the brunt of the impact. Basically that tub is ruined. This car will need new tub for sure. The lower deck cover is gone for sure. There are a bunch of water lines, oil lines, brake lines that might be damaged too. The driveshaft would take a big shunt from that fire hydrant too. Exhaust pipes probably damaged. The real cost of building an LFA was probably over 1 million usd back in 2012. Factor in inflation it should be over 2 million dollars now. So to fix it be properly be ready to cough out about 500,000-750,000 dollars.
At least Lexus can still get you parts. The front bumper for my G8 is out of production. The best option I have been able to find is a damaged one that was in worse shape than mine for $5k.
Got to fix it ! One year estimate on repairs might be too optimistic. Its the search or the re-engineering of the parts that cannot be found that will take time.
Makes me actually sad. This has been at the top of my big 3 since watching Richard Hammond on Top Gear in 2010. The noise it makes in person is incredible. Sad just sad. plz fix it. Or send it over here and I will sell my house and fix it =D
When the LF-A just came out, we were told by Lexus corporation, in order the repair the carbon fiber panels, the whole car must ship to Germany for repair but it was more then 10 years ago, technology may change.
I guess you won't be able to get any of those parts at Pick-N-Pull. Such a sad sight to see it in this state, but it will be fun to watch this journey back to life.
Fix it. McLaren hired carbon fiber specialist to fix Rowan Atkinson's McLaren F1 which was in worse shape than this LFA. Stripped the car down to the bare unibody to see what can be repaired. Also, reach out to Lexus to see what parts are still be available for it. It's going to take more than a year to fix it. Do not rush to fix it. 2 to 4 years would be fine for any restoration project on this scale.
In kor some guys pulls interior and engine out from veloster N and swap it into the 92 elantra or that stuff. Whole suspensions too. LFA interior & engine swap into the sc400?
Would you fix it if you had the chance?
Absolutely
Not a chance. The body work being carbon is all going to have to be custom & done in house. I doubt you'd even get this repaired within a years time.

I'd put the engine in my S650
It needs to be fixed there are so few of them in the first place writing one off to be scraped would be heresy

-Or some polish mechanics that managed to save one LFA already

This is very rare car and the value will shoot to the sky it definetly worth saving.
