1. Lexus LFA

LFA – Lexus’ ultra-high-performance, limited-production super car – hit the streets in 2010. One of the most expensive Japanese vehicles ever produced, it had a starting price of $375,000.

The ten-cylinder power plant was produced by Toyota Motorsports – the same company that develops the company’s Formula 1 racing engines.
