889speedshop already offering tuning program for the Lexus LFA, including performance boost


Well that was fast, the new Lexus LFA has just been revealed by the Japanese company at the Tokyo Motor Show and already German tuning house 889speedshop is offering a performance and bodykit for the supercar from the land of the rising sun, which will start getting delivered at the end of next year.

The fact that it doesn’t even have a model to work on or the chance to actually see the inside of the car hasn’t stopped 889speedshop to reveal a few renders of a bodykit, which will include a revamped carbon fiber hood, skins for the fender, a redesigned fron fascia will also be added for a more aggressive look and improved air flow to the front brakes. On the rear, a new carbon fiber splitter will be fitted and the stock variable spoiler will be replaced with a fixed one.

In terms of performance, the tuner are quite confident that they can improve the Lexus LFA supercar by adding a titanium exhaust system and reprogram the ECU in order to squeeze 20 HP more from the big V10 engine. All of these mods will cost around $65,000, which will be added to the retail price of the LFA which is around $380,000.

What do you think? Should the tuners have taken more time and actually work on a model before releasing these plans or should they present something as soon as possible for future buyers? Drop a comment with your view on the matter.
