It doesn&#8217;t matter, though, the LFA looks fantastic in this video, and the LCD gauges are cool to watch in action. That&#8217;s the real value of this video, watching the interior come alive like the bridge of some kind of spaceship. <\/p>\n<p>Damon talked about the way the gauges animate to display different information, but watching the display slide around makes us want to be the guy sitting in the driver&#8217;s seat, twiddling all the buttons with meaty, indiscriminate paws. The entirety of the car is as worthy of &#8220;dude, check this out&#8221; as you&#8217;d expect from a supercar-class vehicle. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/02\/video-lexus-lfa-illicitly-investigated-by-fanboy-in-secret-ware\/#continued\">Check it out after the jump<\/a>, and let us know if we&#8217;re being too suspicious. <\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re just having trouble with details like interested-looking parties reflected in the window of the opening shot, and the fact that it&#8217;s supposed to be poor quality, but looks pretty decent and apparently, when you drop everything and run out of the house, you take the time to call a cameraman. Now, if you&#8217;ll excuse us, we have to go line our winter hats with tinfoil. <em>Thanks for the tip, Michael!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/first-drive-2011-lexus-lfa\/low\/\">First Drive: 2011 Lexus LFA<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/first-drive-2011-lexus-lfa\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/10\/lexuslfafd_06_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/first-drive-2011-lexus-lfa\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/10\/lexuslfafd_02_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/first-drive-2011-lexus-lfa\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/10\/lexuslfafd_01_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/first-drive-2011-lexus-lfa\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/10\/lexuslfafd_07_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/first-drive-2011-lexus-lfa\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/10\/lexuslfafd_03_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n<strong><em><font size=\"1\">Photos copyright (C)2009 Damon Lavrinc<\/font><\/em><\/strong><strong><em><font size=\"1\"> \/ Weblogs, Inc.<\/font><\/em><\/strong><br \/>\n[Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/motormavens.com\/2009\/11\/video-motor-mavens-sneak-peek-at-lexus-lf-a-lfa\">Motor Mavens<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/02\/video-lexus-lfa-illicitly-investigated-by-fanboy-in-secret-ware\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>VIDEO: Lexus LFA illicitly investigated by fanboy in secret warehouse<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/02\/video-lexus-lfa-illicitly-investigated-by-fanboy-in-secret-ware\/\">VIDEO: Lexus LFA illicitly investigated by fanboy in secret warehouse<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Wed, 02 Dec 2009 12:29:00 EST.
