I put together a little group caravan to cars and coffee this morning. Then our friend with the LFA joined us. My dad drove his green Z, I drove his safari gold, Eiji brought his G nose, my friend Michael brought the Hakosuka and then our other friend has the LFA. I will post my photos first. Then my friend Mike Lee's which make mine look like cell phone shots.

My friend Mike Lee's photos. 

 

Very nice. I do like those Lexus. There was at work the other day in the parking garage. It is such a big car though. 

Sure it was an LFA and not an LC500? They look similar but the difference is ridiculous. I was lucky enough to drive both the LFA and the Hakosuka. Which is nuts because they are both on my top 10 list. The LFA was the most interesting, amazing, impressive and unique car I have ever driven/experienced. The sound is the most wonderful thing my ears have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. It's ridiculous.

Hmmm. I’ll have to look again if it’s there. 

The LFA is an extremely rare car. The LC500 looks similar and is very common. Beautiful car as well but doesn't have the Yamaha V8 that sounds like F1. The LC500 also costs about 1/3 the price of the LFA. They were way ahead of their time and are considered the only Japanese Supercar ever made. I have always dreamed of getting to photograph much less drive one. It's an experience I will never forget.

Does your dad run stretched tires on his green Z or is his the other green Z?  

Just curious.  To each his own...

I love Eiji's car!!

ZedHead, the blue car belongs to Eiji not my dad. That's a very popular style in Japan and Eiji is Japanese. Not to everyone's taste but there are plenty out there who love it. I love that about the 240z. There are so many different styles/directions you can go with it.

Nice photos!

The G-Nose would be my pick of the litter. No offense Guy but it's cool factor is waaaay up there.

I got to drive it Friday night Site......quite the experience......rev limiter at 8000, and it comes up like lightning. We’ll get you a ride in Atlanta....looking forward to meeting the Alabama Jamma!  

Next year there will be another Safari Gold Car in the parade....maybe a growing annual event.
