Lexus Australia has confirmed that an additional three LFAs will land in Australia once production of the hand-built supercar starts in December this year.

The additional LFAs take Australia's total allocation to eight vehicles, up from an initial allocation of five.

The first LFA to land in Australia in April 2011 will feature a striking blue flame exterior with black wheels and blue callipers.

The interior of the LFA will feature black leather with blue stitching and blue highlights throughout the cabin.

Lexus Australia chief executive Tony Cramb said that the increased allocation was testament to the strength of the Lexus brand locally. "Well before we confirmed five LFAs for Australia we had more than enough solid enquiries to quadruple that allocation," said Mr Cramb.

"Lexus Australia's initial LFA allocation was five vehicles, but we were caught well short of market demand - we've been overwhelmed by the response to the LFA.

"There is no doubt that our growing portfolio of "F" product is resonating with customers. IS F is in high demand, and with new IS 350 and its F-Sport variant, "F" products will become an increasingly important part of our line-up," Mr Cramb said.

The Lexus LFA features a lightweight carbon fibre composite construction and a 412kW mid-front mounted V10 engine, capable of reaching 100km/h in just 3.7 seconds to a top speed of beyond 300km/h.
