The LFA will be available through direct sales over the lease

Contrary to what had been expected LFA will not be marketed in the form of leasing.

Lexus has changed the rules for the purchase of his supercar. At first the Japanese had planned to sell the LFA as leasing, that is to say a long-term lease with purchase option after two years. A method still binding on the client but which was intended to prevent speculators who have ordered one of 500 copies produced to be sold immediately more expensive. Lexus has finally abandoned this option but still regulates the purchase of the LFA.

The customer can directly buy the LFA as any car. He however committed by contract to go through the dealer when you sell the car to be sold at "fair" price. If this rule is derogated Lexus can claim compensation and capital gain made if the LFA has been sold dearer than its present value. Not sure that this new rule deceive customers, but in applying it, Lexus retains control of the market and especially the coast of his cars.
