One of the more interesting pieces of news this week surrounded Paris Hilton receiving a Lexus LFA as a gift from her boyfriend. She's definitely not a newcomer to high-end vehicles as we've seen her piloting a Mercedes-Benz SLR and a Bentley Continental GT, which was HOT pink.
Regardless, this new LFA gifting seems a bit awkward and let me tell you why. There are a couple of things I noticed:
- The LFA she is pictured with in the UK's Daily Mail is actually a prototype LFA. It's not a production version. You can tell because it has the winglets above the rear taillights and it's also the same YELLOW car that's been seen in the new Lexus commercial as well as last year's auto show in Monterey.
- She's filming a "reality" show. Let's be real, most of these shows are scripted.
So, unless the vehicle was put on order and this was merely a "stand in" until the real-deal LFA gets here, I am going to remain skeptical.
And no, I am not drinking haterade...
