Lexus launches N�rburgring package for LFA

Lexus has launched a new package for the LFA aimed at hardcore track driving enthusiasts.

The highlights of the N�rburgring package are the following:

• New aerodynamic elements for greater downforce, including fixed rear wing
• Power increased to more than 562 bhp (+10 bhp), gearshift times cut to just 0.15 seconds
• 0 to 62mph acceleration in 3.7 seconds and top speed of 202 mph maintained in spite of higher downforce
• Performance package launched in celebration of LFA�s entry in the N�rburgring 24 Hours race
• Just  50 examples to be built, within the total LFA production limit of 500 cars
• Handling modifications include sports tuning of the suspension and mesh-type wheels shod with dedicated high-grip tyres
• Customers will be able to take advantage of individual driving instruction on the legendary Nordschleife circuit from the N�rburgring�s chief instructors. They will also receive a one-year driving pass to the track

Lexus is really trying hard to convince us that it can build seriously fast and exclusive cars, but even with the LFA (earlier post), it still remains an emotionless brand...
