''The'' Fabulous Hudson Hornet.
To kickstart TheFifties, the Hudson Motor Car Company released its full size automobile called the Hudson Hornet, introduced for the 1951 model year, based on its step-down design last seen in the 1948 Hudson Commodore. The Hornet was available in either a 2-door coupe, a 4-door sedan, a convertible or a hardtop. It's powered by 5.0 L "H-146" inline-6 engine, bored and stroked with high-chromium-alloy block and other high-end features to increase the engine's displacement.
Though its production for the Hornet was short lived under the Hudson name, produced in under three years up until 1954, the Hornet itself continued production under the name American Motors Corporation (AMC), following Hudson's and Nash-Kelvinatior's merge.
The Hornet grew fame in UsefulNotes/{{NASCAR}}, becoming one of the most dominant stock cars of TheFifties featuring the "PowerTrio" of the "Fabulous Hudson Hornet"; Marshall Teague, who won 5 NASCAR Grand National races in 1951, Herb Thomas, who won the 1951 NASCAR Grand National championship with this car, and Tim Flock, who won the 1952 Grand National Championship. Despite its twilight from its competitiveness from Ford and Chevrolet, the Hudson Hornet forever forged a legacy, especially the anthropomorphic race car Doc Hudson, depicted in the 2006 Creator/{{Pixar}} movie, ''WesternAnimation/Cars1''.

A limited edition E-Type Lightweight is an evolution of the low drag coupé, taking advantage of its aluminum alloy metal in body panels and components, with an uprated 300 hp, and fitted with Weber carburettors. This would be eventually used in clubman racing driven by privateer teams.

The Koenigsegg Agera is a supercar introduced in 2010 as a successor to the CCX/CCXR. The name "agera" [[MeaningfulName comes from the Swedish verb, meaning "to act"]]. With about 1000 hp in its twin-turbocharged V8 engine, the Agera can reach the 400 km/h barrier with accelerations of 0-60 in less than 2.8 seconds.
The Agera has many variants and one-offs produced throughout its production. A higher performing Agera R produces over 1,100 hp, and theoretically capable of reaching 439 km/h. The Agera R is notable for its ''Anime/SpeedRacer'' livery. Another variant is the Koenigsegg One:1 (pronounced as ''one''), with a whopping 1,360 ps power equivalent of one megawatt as the name derives. The advanced version of the Agera R, the Agera RS clocked at a top speed of 277.87 mph / 447.19 km/h, it is officially the [[FastestThingAlive fastest production car in the world.]] The Agera ended with one last variant, the Agera Final Edition before it closed up shop in 2018 and was replaced by the Koenigsegg Jesko in 2021.
The Agera was named ''Hypercar of the Year'' in 2010 by ''[[Series/TopGearUK Top Gear]]'' magazine.

->''"Created to celebrate 15 years of outstanding performance" -- Agera the Swedish verb to Act is used to symbolize everything that Koenigsegg does best."''
-->--'''Description''', ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeedHotPursuit (2010)''
If there is a car worthy enough to be faster than the Bugatti Veyron, ''this is it''.
The Koenigsegg Agera is a supercar introduced in 2010 as a successor to the CCX/CCXR. The name "agera" [[MeaningfulName comes from the Swedish verb, meaning "to act"]]. With about 1000 hp in its twin-turbocharged V8 engine, the Agera can reach the 400 km/h barrier with accelerations of 0-60 in less than 2.8 seconds.
The Agera has many variants and one-offs produced throughout its production. A higher performing Agera R produces over 1,100 hp, and theoretically capable of reaching 439 km/h. The Agera R is notable for its ''Anime/SpeedRacer'' livery. Another variant is the Koenigsegg One:1 (pronounced as ''one''), with a whopping 1,360 ps power equivalent of one megawatt as the name derives. The advanced version of the Agera R, the Agera RS clocked at a top speed of 277.87 mph / 447.19 km/h, it is officially the [[FastestThingAlive fastest production car in the world.]] The Agera ended with one last variant, the Agera Final Edition before it closed up shop in 2018 and was replaced by the Koenigsegg Jesko in 2021.
The Agera was named ''Hypercar of the Year'' in 2010 by ''[[Series/TopGearUK Top Gear]]'' magazine.

->''"I usually kill traction control. But in this car, it definitely feels faster with the traction control on. ... I like that feeling of walking that line, getting into that edge."''
-->--'''Creator/PaulWalker''', [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuEFULhT6pQ on the Lexus LFA after driving it around Willow Springs]]
Perhaps it's Japan's first exotic supercar, that took [[DevelopmentHell 5 years to develop.]]
The LFA (short for '''L'''exus '''F'''uture '''A'''dvance) is Lexus's two seater supercar manufactured from 2010 to 2012, and it is the first standalone F-series model, the first of the LF lineup and the brand's first ever supercar.
Development for the LFA dates all the way back during the start of the TurnOfTheMillennium when both Toyota and Lexus intend to produce a supercar to showcase its performance and aerodynamic capabilities. The first SuperPrototype was finished in 2003, and underwent numerous tests around the Nürburgring where the car was equipped with a retractable rear spoiler and carbon ceramic brake discs.
The LF-A was finally introduced to the world on January 2005 at the North American International Auto Show in UsefulNotes/{{Detroit}}, despite having no plans for production. The car was designed in collaboration between Toyota and Italian designer Leonardo Fioravanti. Notable features of the car other than its retractable spoiler is its twin rear radiators, turbine shaped wheels and mostly its triple exhaust placed in an [[SinisterGeometry upside-down triangle position]]. Rumors say it was green-lit for production, though reports stated it was not officially confirmed.
The second concept was introduced in 2007, with a much more restyled body, a more aerodynamic exterior and having a fully-functional interior. The car had plans of utilizing a V10 and a hybrid engine. The following year, a roadster variant of the concept was unveiled.
On August 5, 2009, Toyota officially confirmed that the LFA will go into production, where it's expected it will carry V10 engines. The car was officially unveiled at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show and it would also mark as part of Lexus's 20th [[MilestoneCelebration anniversary]]. Under the hood is a 4.8 L even-firing V10 engine, producing 553-563 hp, and the car's body made fully of carbon-fiber reinforced polymer. As for performance, the car accelerates 0-62 in 3.7 seconds and can reach 326 km/h (203 mph).
The LFA officially ended in December 2012 with exactly 500 cars produces, with the final car being the track-focused LFA Nürburgring Package/Edition.

* This supercar has been fully present since ''VideoGame/ForzaMotorsport 3'', where in ''Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious'', appears as on of the Bucket List events. Plus, only exclusive to the very first ''Horizon'' game gets you to drive this rare bird; the track-tuned LFA Nürburgring Edition.
* It's one of the premium supercars of ''VideoGame/GranTurismo 5'', where the Nürburgring Package joins in the following game. In the Spec II update of ''7'', you can get your hands on this supercar for free by completing Master International B-License with all Golds, and you can recreate the said Nürburgring Package with its aero parts. Oh, and did we mention is ''five times more expensive than the previous 2 games?''
* The LFA was introduced in ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeedShift'', albeit in its [[ImprobablyCoolCar concept form]], where it was featured as the Invitational Event car set in Silverstone National. Its sequel fully uses the production version and is also one of the Speedhunters cars. That being said, it spawned in later games;
** ...where it appears as the car of the #7 of TheMostWanted racer in ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeedMostWanted2012''.
** And in ''[[VideoGame/NeedForSpeedRivals Rivals]]'', it's considered as a rank 9 RCPD car.
* Terrazi's brand new super sports machine, the Centellee, introduced in ''VideoGame/RidgeRacer 7'' strongly resembles the 2005 LF-A Concept.

-->--'''Enzo Ferrari'''
TheRival of the Aston Martin [=DB5=], considered to be a cult of the UsefulNotes/UnitedKingdom.
The Jaguar E-Type, or if you live in the US, it's the [[MarketBasedTitle Jaguar XK-E]] is a British sports tourer introduced in 1961. The E-Type offered in either a two-seater coupé (Fixed Head Coupé) or a two-seater roadster (Open Two Seater). 5 years later after its initial introduction, in 1966, a 2+2 four-seater coupé was releases, with a lengthened wheelbase. Later models include the updated "Series 2" and "Series 3", referring the original 1961 model as the "Series 1". It's offered in either a 3.8L of a 4.2L XK inline-6 engine, boasting 265 horsepower and capable of reaching 150 mph (241 km/h), where the Series 3 E-Type exchanges it for a 272 hp 5.3L V12 engine.
A limited edition E-Type Lightweight is an evolution of the low drag coupé, taking advantage of its aluminum alloy metal in body panels and components, with an uprated 300 hp, and fitted with Weber carburettors. This would be eventually used in clubman racing driven by privateer teams.

The Aston Martin [=DB7's=] little brother.
The XK is Jaguar's series of 2+2 grand tourers first introduced at the Geneva Motor Show in 1996, available both in hatchback coupé or in convertible body styles.
Replacing the then aging XJS, the first generation XK (under the X100 designation) was [[MarketBasedTitle marketed as the [=XK8=]]] which it was derived from its stylish [=XJ41/XJ42=] concept from 1986, and it would be its first V8-powered model since the Daimler 250... which is technically a Jaguar. Its body design bares similarities to the aforementioned [=DB7=] due to the car sharing the same platform. The [=XK8=], alongside the more powerful XKR are powered by Jaguar's new AJ-V8 engine and fitted with 1.8 L supercharger from Eation, shared with the Ford F-150 SVT Lightning pickup.
In 2005, a newly updated and fully redesigned iteration of the XK (now under the X150 designation) was unveiled at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor show, styled by Ian Callum, the same designer who did the Aston Martin [=DB7=] and [=DB9=]. While it uses a brand-new aluminium monocoque chassis, one of the notable features of this facelift is its new grille that was a CallBack to the original 1961 E-Type. Just like the previous iteration, a high performance XKR was also introduced during the unveiling, but also offered an even more powerful version introduced in 2011 dubbed the XKR-S with an uprated engine, supercharger and fitted with Pirelli P-Zero tires, as well as a limited edition track-oriented variant in 2013 called the XKR-S GT.
The XK series ended their production in 2014 with their limited farewell edition called the XK Final Fifty. [[MeaningfulName As the name implies]], it's limited to only 50 units. The XK was replaced by the Jaguar F-Type.

After UsefulNotes/WorldWarII ended with Jaguar finally returning in production, with its Mark IV already underway. It was a perfect time also for them to finally produce a sports car follow the pre-war SS 100.
Jaguar launches an open-top two-seater sports roadster during the London Motor Show in 1948. Designed by the late William Heynes, the new sports car is named the '''[=XK120=]''', [[MeaningfulName where its name refers to its new XK inline-6 engine, and its top speed of 120 mph (193 km/h)]]. The first car was delivered to renowned American actor, Creator/ClarkGable. Though originally an open two-seater, the [=XK120=] is also offered in coupé form, whether a fixed head or a drophead.
A more upgraded version of the [=XK120=] was introduced in 1954, now called the '''[=XK140=]''', available in open-top roadster, convertible or coupé. Differentiating from its predecessor is its improved brakes, rack and pinion steering, a larger interior space, and highly upraded suspensions and shocks. The "140" in the moniker is implied to be in regard of the "142 [=kW=]" gross standard. Its distinctive emblem located on the boot lid contained the words "Winner Le Mans 1951–3" is a CallBack to is glorious years when its Jaguar C-Types has dominated the UsefulNotes/TwentyFourHoursOfLeMans in 1951 and 1953 respectively.
In 1957, its [[RuleOfThree third]] revised and final iteration of the XK roadsters called the '''[=XK150=]''' is unveiled, initially only available in either a fixed head or drophead coupé where both have added rear seats, though an open-top roadsters were released the following year, as the [=XK150=] OTS. It was also the most powerful iteration amongst all the three, with its highest end model, the [=XK150S=], produce 265 hp and reach 135 mph (217 km/h).
The XK roadsters ended in 1961 and was succeeded by the Jaguar E-Type, though the XK name was revived in 1996 as a grand tourer. See the folder above for more info.

->''"Created to celebrate 15 years of outstanding performance" -- Agera the Swedish verb to Act is used to symbolize everything that Koenigsegg does best."''
-->--'''Description''', ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeedHotPursuit (2010)''
If there is a car worthy enough to be faster than the Bugatti Veyron, ''this is it''.
The Koenigsegg Agera is a supercar introduced in 2010 as a successor to the CCX/CCXR. The name "agera" [[MeaningfulName comes from the Swedish verb, meaning "to act"]]. With about 1000 hp in its twin-turbocharged V8 engine, the Agera can reach the 400 km/h barrier with accelerations of 0-60 in less than 2.8 seconds.
The Agera has many variants and one-offs produced throughout its production. A higher performing Agera R produces over 1,100 hp, and theoretically capable of reaching 439 km/h. The Agera R is notable for its ''Anime/SpeedRacer'' livery. Another variant is the Koenigsegg One:1 (pronounced as ''one''), with a whopping 1,360 ps power equivalent of one megawatt as the name derives. The advanced version of the Agera R, the Agera RS clocked at a top speed of 277.87 mph / 447.19 km/h, it is officially the [[FastestThingAlive fastest production car in the world.]] The Agera ended with one last variant, the Agera Final Edition before it closed up shop in 2018 and was replaced by the Koenigsegg Jesko in 2021.
The Agera was named ''Hypercar of the Year'' in 2010 by ''[[Series/TopGearUK Top Gear]]'' magazine.

* ''VideoGame/{{Asphalt}}'' features a bunch of them. In ''8'', the Agera R is available at launch back when the game was released, followed by the almighty Koenigsegg One:1, and finally the even more powerful Agera RS.
* The Koenigsegg Agera R is a Hyper class car in ''VideoGame/{{Driveclub}}'', and it's a doozy to drive due to its performance par to the Hennessey Venom GT. Don't fret that this is scary, though. Because introducing the Downforce pack, comes the holy-God almighty Koenigsegg One:1, and it's ''bar none'' regarded as a [[GameBreaker very broken vehicle when it comes to the performance department]]. With its monstrous top speed, apocalyptic braking and absurd handling, the car feels like you're taking on against a UsefulNotes/FormulaOne car! Good luck breaking the world record with that machine.
* Ageras have become part of ''VideoGame/TheCrew's'' and ''VideoGame/{{Forza}}'s'' hypercar mantlepiece.
* In ''VideoGame/{{GRID}} 2'' and ''Autosport'' the Agera R appears as a Tier 4 "Super" class car and a Hypercar-class car respectively, and its very capable of reaching 250 mph on its own.
** The Agera RS is available via DownloadableContent in the 2019 game, where there is an anomaly... ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_siJ8h3pU7Y it sounds like a frickin' 4-cylinder rally car]]!'' Thankfully, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNMEc8z6psc the sound was patched, to make is sound like the appropriate V8 engine.]]
* ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeed'' features this Swedish hypercar since its introduction in 2010:
** It first made its appearance in ''[[VideoGame/NeedForSpeedHotPursuit Hot Pursuit (2010)]]'', available to both racers and cops for the Hyper Series and Special Response category respectively, alongside its brothers, CCX and CCXR.
** Got a [[DownloadableContent Supercar pack]] in ''[[VideoGame/NeedForSpeedTheRun The Run]]?'' ''Good''. Then feast your eyes with the newly higher-performing Agera R.
** This targa top Agera R in ''[[VideoGame/NeedForSpeedMostWanted2012 Most Wanted (2012)]]'' can be yours by beating the FinalBoss of the Blacklist.
** The Agera R in ''[[VideoGame/NeedForSpeedRivals Rivals]]'' is the penultimate unlockable RCPD-only police car. [[spoiler:In the story, when Zephyr found out F-8 tries to make for himself by [[DressingAsTheEnemy posing as a racer]], he retaliates by stealing a decommissioned Agera police car while [[DefacementInsult vandalizing it with his own name in graffiti]].]]
*** The Koenigsegg One:1 is a [[GameBreaker truly a sight to behold]]. Its ultra-highest top speed than any other car systematically annihilates basically... ''everything''.

->''"On August 12, 1994, a 22-year-old Christian von Koenigsegg decided to follow his dream and build the world's greatest super-sports car. Koenigsegg Automotive is born. [...] All were amazed by the Koenigsegg's outstanding performance. The concept worked and it was time to introduce Koenigsegg to prospective buyers. The Koenigsegg story has sort of written itself from that point on, with a steady release of niche models that showcase a wealth of innovation and of course, brute performance."''
-->--[[https://www.supercars.net/blog/all-brands/koenigsegg/koenigsegg-models/ Koenigsegg Model List: Every Koenigsegg Ever Made]], ''Supercars.net''
The TropeCodifier of hypercars, ever before the Bugatti Veyron was even born. It's ultra-exclusive, ultra-powerful, ''ultra-expensive'' and ''ultra-limited''.
When Christan von Koenigsegg founded his namesake car company in 1994 in Ängelholm, Sweden, his intention was to produce a "world-class" sports car that would exceed the highest limits set by the [=McLaren=] F1. He built his first SuperPrototype called the Koenigsegg CC, which was inspired by the F1 itself and the Ferrari F40, powered by a supercharged 4.6 L Ford Modular V8 engine. That prototype took years of development and testing and by the TurnOfTheMillennium, it lead to the full production of the 2002 Koenigsegg [=CC8S=]. Its car uses its trademark [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihedral_synchro-helix_actuation_doors Dihedral synchro-helix actuation doors]], its signature targa top body, and its custom Koenigsegg twin-supercharged V8 derived from the aforementioned Ford Modular engine. With a power output producing 655 hp. and top speeds of over 390 km/h (240 mph), the car won the Literature/GuinnessWorldRecords for the Most Powerful Production Engine. The car would be replaced by the more-powerful and updated CCR which attempted to break the world record for top speed when it ran around the Nardò Ring testing facility in 2005.
In 2006, Koenigsegg unveils the CCX, short for ''[[XMakesAnythingCool Competition Coupé X]]'', which the "X" commemorates the [[MilestoneCelebration tenth anniversary]] for the completion and successful test drive of the first CC prototype in 1996. It was produced to meet US vehicle regulations by sporting new body modifications and a new in-house 4.7 L twin supercharged engine producing 806 hp, while running on 91 octane gasoline. The car's chassis was built from carbon fibre, reinforced with Kevlar and aluminium honeycomb. Throughout its production, Koenigsegg has produced various CCX variants:
* '''CCXR''' (2007-2009) 9 units - a more GreenAesop version of the CCX, using modified fuel injectors and E85 and E100 ethanol fuel. Engine power uprated to 1,018 hp.
* '''CCX Edition/CCXR Edition/CCXR Special Edition''' (2008-2009) 8 units combined - A much more track-oriented version compared to the standard model, notable for its carbon-fiber body.
* '''CCXR Trevita''' [[note]]Swedish for ''three whites''.[[/note]] (2008-2009) 2 units - An extremely limited edition of the CCXR, notable for its diamond weave carbon fibre finish. Once owned by famous boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
* '''CCGT''' (2007) 1 unit - a race-spec version of the CCX, solely intended to compete in the then-FIA [=GT1=].
The CC series would cease production in 2010 with 49 units combined in total. It was succeeded by the twin-turbocharged Agera.

* In ''VideoGame/{{Forza}}'' The CC ([=CC8S=], CCX, CCX-R Edition and CCGT) series were first shown in the first 4 ''Motorsport'' games before it was abandoned in favor for the Agera series. It's not until it [[TheBusCameBack made a comeback]] in ''Horizon 4'' and ''Horizon 5''.

[[caption-width-right:350:Embodying the Italian Wedge since TheSeventies.]]
->''"The Lancia Stratos produced a new era in rallying, as it was the first car designed and developed from scratch for rally competition. Production of the 500 cars required for homologation in Group 4 commenced in 1973 and the Stratos was homologated for the 1974 WRC season. The car won the 1974, 1975 and 1976 championship titles in the hands of Sandro Munari and Björn Waldegård."''
-->--'''Description''', ''''VideoGame/{{DIRT}}'' Rally 2.0''
Perhaps everyone who knows about UsefulNotes/{{Rallying}} pretty much knows about this classic rally car legend from Lancia.
The Lancia Stratos HF Stradale (Tipo 829) is a mid-engined rear-wheel drive sports car that was intended for replace the aging Lancia Fulvia HF for rallying, produced from 1973 to 1978.
Introduced at the 1971 Turin Motor Show, Bertone presented its Strtos prototype, just a year after its announcement of the Stratos Zero concept car. The prototype has three different engines throughout development; a Lancia V4 from the said Fulvia, and inline-4 from the Beta and the mid-mouned Ferrari Dino V6, which the latter most was used when production finally pushed through. Its power output produces 190 horsepower, and was compatible with a 5-speed manual transmission. Its notable feature of the Stratos is its distinctive wedge-shaped body, which would later be the codifier and trend of the "Italian Wedge" in future sports cars, such as the Lamborghini Countach and the Ferrari Testarossa. Only about 492 Stratos models were produced throughout its production.
The Stratos was designed to participate in the rally world, which would see action in the UsefulNotes/WorldRallyChampionship. Thanks to its small, but very lightweight body, the car won 18 rallies, courtesy of resident Italian driver Sandro Munari, which also helped won 3 consecutive championships from 1974 to 1976. [[https://cdn.motor1.com/images/mgl/nv14l/s1/lancia-stratos.jpg Its distinctive Alitalia livery]] has become one of the most notable and iconic rally cars in history.

[[AC:Anime and Manga]]
* When it comes to En's basic vehicle in ''Anime/BraveCommandDagwon'', it's by far none other than the Fire Stratos, a Lancia Stratos that is quite an ImprobablyCoolCar for police use.
* Resident {{Tsundere}} of the PowerTrio, Lisa Sakakino of ''Anime/ExDriver'' is the driver behind her classic CoolCar; a blue Group 4-spec Lancia Stratos HF (from episode 2 onwards) which she uses to stop erratic AutomatedAutomobiles. Previously, she drives an Impreza, which got wrecked in the process (due to AWD being too impractical for maneuvering).
* Batou from ''Anime/GhostInTheShellStandAloneComplex'' drives one of his most beloved possessions he has in his CoolCar collection, and that is a yellow Lancia Stratos, a'' very'' rare 1970s racing coupe that he truly in love with.
* In ''Anime/LupinIIIPartII'', a snobbish race car driver named Kaguya challenges Lupin in a race in her green Group 5 Stratos-esque sports car around the coastal roads of Monaco.
* As expected where CoolCar is the emphasizing premise, ''Anime/{{Overtake}}'' has Noritsune Ena, the owner of Belsorriso, who drives a Lancia Stratos as his personal car.

[[AC:Video Games]]
* As a UsefulNotes/{{Rallying}} legend, the Lancia Stratos has appeared in rally-based racing games, typically as a DifficultButAwesome car (due to its nimble lightweight body prone to oversteering, especially on surfaces that aren't asphalt);
** ''VideoGame/ColinMcRaeRally'' is perhaps this, typically as a bonus car and in its distinctive Alitalia livery. The ''VideoGame/{{DIRT}}'' series has become a long-time staple RWD classic with the [[ImprobablyCoolCar improbable]] New Stratos by Fenomenon, a modern-era recreational concept that's being in the same RWD class as the Stratos itself.
** The Lancia Stratos in ''VideoGame/RallyTrophy'' defines what is CoolButInefficient; it has an absurdly powerful motor, absurdly great acceleration, break-neck top speed... [[CripplingOverspecialization but apparently zero grip on anything else than tarmac/asphalt]]...
** The Lancia Stratos appears as a [[SecretCharacter secret car]] in ''VideoGame/SegaRally Championship'', which goes much faster than the other two cars [[AwesomeButImpractical but in the arcade version it handles like it's on ice]] This became a mainstay in later games.
* As part of July 2023's American Legends update, ''VideoGame/TheCrew2'' adds this rally legend to the lineup. A Rallycross counterpart is also added on the same update, which was based on its Group 4 rally car.
* It only shows up as the only Lancia car in ''VideoGame/DriverSanFrancisco''. One mission has John Tanner has to retrieve back the Stratos as one of the stolen vintage cars that were to be sold at an auction.
* This wedge-shaped sports car shows up in every single ''VideoGame/{{Forza}}'' game (except the 2023 reboot), with of the Group 4-spec that was only exclusive to ''Horizon 3'' and ''Motorsport 7''.
* The Stratos first appeared in ''VideoGame/GranTurismo 2'', which can be obtained as a prize car. Fit racing modifications and you can turn it into an Alitalia-cladded rally car. While it was Dummied out in ''3'', it fully returns in ''4'', with the road car and rally car now being separate models. ''5'' onwards replaced the iconic Alitalia livery with a [[BlandNameProduct generic one]],[[note]]It is possibly due to licensing issues, and Alitalia would declare bankruptcy in 2008.[[/note]] but the game won't stop you from recreating the Alitalia livery in ''Sport'' ad ''7''.
* Outside of the rally world, ''VideoGame/{{GRID}} (2019)'' has this as a Classic GT car, based on its Circuit-spec Group 4 race car.
* This "off-road enthusiast" appears as the "[[{{Fauxrrari}} Dustdriver]]" in ''VideoGame/HorizonChase''. Its 2nd anniversary skin resembles the one of the Martini livery.
* Ditto in ''VideoGame/MotorStorm: Apocalypse'' as the Italia Cirrus is also a Group 5 Stratos {{Expy}} with some added flares from a Ford [=RS200=].
* Prbably one of the notable classics in ''VideoGame/ProjectGothamRacing 2'' and ''4''. [[WeakButSkilled While it may not have lots of power, but its lightweight body makes the car nimble around corners.]]
* The homologated Groupe 4 edition of this Italian classic is available as a DownloadableContent in ''VideoGame/TestDriveUnlimited 2''. Just find all the wrecks in Ibiza and this wedged sports car is yours.
* A rally version of the Stratos is seen in ''[=ToCA=] Race Driver 3'', restricted only on rally courses. [[https://igcd.net/vehicle.php?id=6930 Its Alitalia colors were inverted and the logo was replaced with the Supersprint logo]], possibly as as a way of WritingAroundTrademarks.

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lexus_lfa.jpg]]
->''"I usually kill traction control. But in this car, it definitely feels faster with the traction control on. ... I like that feeling of walking that line, getting into that edge."''
-->--'''Creator/PaulWalker''', [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuEFULhT6pQ on the Lexus LFA after driving it around Willow Springs]]
Perhaps it's Japan's first exotic supercar, that took [[DevelopmentHell 5 years to develop.]]
The LFA (short for '''L'''exus '''F'''uture '''A'''dvance) is Lexus's two seater supercar manufactured from 2010 to 2012, and it is the first standalone F-series model, the first of the LF lineup and the brand's first ever supercar.
Development for the LFA dates all the way back during the start of the TurnOfTheMillennium when both Toyota and Lexus intend to produce a supercar to showcase its performance and aerodynamic capabilities. The first SuperPrototype was finished in 2003, and underwent numerous tests around the Nürburgring where the car was equipped with a retractable rear spoiler and carbon ceramic brake discs.
The LF-A was finally introduced to the world on January 2005 at the North American International Auto Show in UsefulNotes/{{Detroit}}, despite having no plans for production. The car was designed in collaboration between Toyota and Italian designer Leonardo Fioravanti. Notable features of the car other than its retractable spoiler is its twin rear radiators, turbine shaped wheels and mostly its triple exhaust placed in an [[SinisterGeometry upside-down triangle position]]. Rumors say it was green-lit for production, though reports stated it was not officially confirmed.
The second concept was introduced in 2007, with a much more restyled body, a more aerodynamic exterior and having a fully-functional interior. The car had plans of utilizing a V10 and a hybrid engine. The following year, a roadster variant of the concept was unveiled.
On August 5, 2009, Toyota officially confirmed that the LFA will go into production, where it's expected it will carry V10 engines. The car was officially unveiled at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show and it would also mark as part of Lexus's 20th [[MilestoneCelebration anniversary]]. Under the hood is a 4.8 L even-firing V10 engine, producing 553-563 hp, and the car's body made fully of carbon-fiber reinforced polymer. As for performance, the car accelerates 0-62 in 3.7 seconds and can reach 326 km/h (203 mph).
The LFA officially ended in December 2012 with exactly 500 cars produces, with the final car being the track-focused LFA Nürburgring Package/Edition.

* This supercar has been fully present since ''VideoGame/ForzaMotorsport 3'', where in ''Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious'', appears as on of the Bucket List events. Plus, only exclusive to the very first ''Horizon'' game gets you to drive this rare bird; the track-tuned LFA Nürburgring Edition.
* It's one of the premium supercars of ''VideoGame/GranTurismo 5'', where the Nürburgring Package joins in the following game. In the Spec II update of ''7'', you can get your hands on this supercar for free by completing Master International B-License with all Golds, and you can recreate the said Nürburgring Package with its aero parts. Oh, and did we mention is ''five times more expensive than the previous 2 games?''
* The LFA was introduced in ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeedShift'', albeit in its [[ImprobablyCoolCar concept form]], where it was featured as the Invitational Event car set in Silverstone National. Its sequel fully uses the production version and is also one of the Speedhunters cars. That being said, it spawned in later games;
** ...where it appears as the car of the #7 of TheMostWanted racer in ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeedMostWanted2012''.
** And in ''[[VideoGame/NeedForSpeedRivals Rivals]]'', it's considered as a rank 9 RCPD car.
* Terrazi's brand new super sports machine, the Centellee, introduced in ''VideoGame/RidgeRacer 7'' strongly resembles the 2005 LF-A Concept.

The E-Type offered in either a two-seater coupé (Fixed Head Coupé) or a two-seater roadster (Open Two Seater). 5 years later after its initial introduction, in 1966, a 2+2 four-seater coupé was releases, with a lengthened wheelbase. Later models include the updated "Series 2" and "Series 3", referring the original 1961 model as the "Series 1". It's offered in either a 3.8L of a 4.2L XK inline-6 engine, boasting 265 horsepower and capable of reaching 150 mph (241 km/h), where the Series 3 E-Type exchanges it for a 272 hp 5.3L V12 engine.
A limited edition E-Type Lightweight is an evolution of the low drag coupé, taking advantage of its aluminum alloy metal in body panels and components, with an uprated 300 hp, and fitted with Weber carburettors. This would be eventually used in clubman racing driven by privateer teams.

The XK is Jaguar's series of 2+2 grand tourers first introduced at the Geneva Motor Show in 1996, available both in hatchback coupé or in convertible body styles.
Replacing the then aging XJS, the first generation XK (under the X100 designation) was [[MarketBasedTitle marketed as the [=XK8=]]] which it was derived from its stylish [=XJ41/XJ42=] concept from 1986, and it would be its first V8-powered model since the Daimler 250... which is technically a Jaguar. Its body design bares similarities to the aforementioned [=DB7=] due to the car sharing the same platform. The [=XK8=], alongside the more powerful XKR are powered by Jaguar's new AJ-V8 engine and fitted with 1.8 L supercharger from Eation, shared with the Ford F-150 SVT Lightning pickup.
In 2005, a newly updated and fully redesigned iteration of the XK (now under the X150 designation) was unveiled at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor show, styled by Ian Callum, the same designer who did the Aston Martin [=DB7=] and [=DB9=]. While it uses a brand-new aluminium monocoque chassis, one of the notable features of this facelift is its new grille that was a CallBack to the original 1961 E-Type. Just like the previous iteration, a high performance XKR was also introduced during the unveiling, but also offered an even more powerful version introduced in 2011 dubbed the XKR-S with an uprated engine, supercharger and fitted with Pirelli P-Zero tires, as well as a limited edition track-oriented variant in 2013 called the XKR-S GT.
The XK series ended their production in 2014 with their limited farewell edition called the XK Final Fifty. [[MeaningfulName As the name implies]], it's limited to only 50 units. The XK was replaced by the Jaguar F-Type.

After UsefulNotes/WorldWarII ended with Jaguar finally returning in production, with its Mark IV already underway. It was a perfect time also for them to finally produce a sports car follow the pre-war SS 100.
Jaguar launches an open-top two-seater sports roadster during the London Motor Show in 1948. Designed by the late William Heynes, the new sports car is named the '''[=XK120=]''', [[MeaningfulName where its name refers to its new XK inline-6 engine, and its top speed of 120 mph (193 km/h)]]. The first car was delivered to renowned American actor, Creator/ClarkGable. Though originally an open two-seater, the [=XK120=] is also offered in coupé form, whether a fixed head or a drophead.
A more upgraded version of the [=XK120=] was introduced in 1954, now called the '''[=XK140=]''', available in open-top roadster, convertible or coupé. Differentiating from its predecessor is its improved brakes, rack and pinion steering, a larger interior space, and highly upraded suspensions and shocks. The "140" in the moniker is implied to be in regard of the "142 [=kW=]" gross standard. Its distinctive emblem located on the boot lid contained the words "Winner Le Mans 1951–3" is a CallBack to is glorious years when its Jaguar C-Types has dominated the UsefulNotes/TwentyFourHoursOfLeMans in 1951 and 1953 respectively.
In 1957, its [[RuleOfThree third]] revised and final iteration of the XK roadsters called the '''[=XK150=]''' is unveiled, initially only available in either a fixed head or drophead coupé where both have added rear seats, though an open-top roadsters were released the following year, as the [=XK150=] OTS. It was also the most powerful iteration amongst all the three, with its highest end model, the [=XK150S=], produce 265 hp and reach 135 mph (217 km/h).
The XK roadsters ended in 1961 and was succeeded by the Jaguar E-Type, though the XK name was revived in 1996 as a grand tourer. See the folder above for more info.

->''"Created to celebrate 15 years of outstanding performance" -- Agera the Swedish verb to Act is used to symbolize everything that Koenigsegg does best."''
-->--'''Description''', ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeedHotPursuit (2010)''
If there is a car worthy enough to be faster than the Bugatti Veyron, ''this is it''.
The Koenigsegg Agera is a supercar introduced in 2010 as a successor to the CCX/CCXR. The name "agera" [[MeaningfulName comes from the Swedish verb, meaning "to act"]]. With about 1000 hp in its twin-turbocharged V8 engine, the Agera can reach the 400 km/h barrier with accelerations of 0-60 in less than 2.8 seconds.
The Agera has many variants and one-offs produced throughout its production. A higher performing Agera R produces over 1,100 hp, and theoretically capable of reaching 439 km/h. The Agera R is notable for its ''Anime/SpeedRacer'' livery. Another variant is the Koenigsegg One:1 (pronounced as ''one''), with a whopping 1,360 ps power equivalent of one megawatt as the name derives. The advanced version of the Agera R, the Agera RS clocked at a top speed of 277.87 mph / 447.19 km/h, it is officially the [[FastestThingAlive fastest production car in the world.]] The Agera ended with one last variant, the Agera Final Edition before it closed up shop in 2018 and was replaced by the Koenigsegg Jesko in 2021.
The Agera was named ''Hypercar of the Year'' in 2010 by ''[[Series/TopGearUK Top Gear]]'' magazine.

[...] All were amazed by the Koenigsegg's outstanding performance. The concept worked and it was time to introduce Koenigsegg to prospective buyers.

The TropeCodifier of hypercars, ever before the Bugatti Veyron was even born. It's ultra-exclusive, ultra-powerful, ''ultra-expensive'' and ''ultra-limited''.
When Christan von Koenigsegg founded his namesake car company in 1994 in Ängelholm, Sweden, his intention was to produce a "world-class" sports car that would exceed the highest limits set by the [=McLaren=] F1. He built his first SuperPrototype called the Koenigsegg CC, which was inspired by the F1 itself and the Ferrari F40, powered by a supercharged 4.6 L Ford Modular V8 engine. That prototype took years of development and testing and by the TurnOfTheMillennium, it lead to the full production of the 2002 Koenigsegg [=CC8S=]. Its car uses its trademark [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihedral_synchro-helix_actuation_doors Dihedral synchro-helix actuation doors]], its signature targa top body, and its custom Koenigsegg twin-supercharged V8 derived from the aforementioned Ford Modular engine. With a power output producing 655 hp. and top speeds of over 390 km/h (240 mph), the car won the Literature/GuinnessWorldRecords for the Most Powerful Production Engine. The car would be replaced by the more-powerful and updated CCR which attempted to break the world record for top speed when it ran around the Nardò Ring testing facility in 2005.
In 2006, Koenigsegg unveils the CCX, short for ''[[XMakesAnythingCool Competition Coupé X]]'', which the "X" commemorates the [[MilestoneCelebration tenth anniversary]] for the completion and successful test drive of the first CC prototype in 1996. It was produced to meet US vehicle regulations by sporting new body modifications and a new in-house 4.7 L twin supercharged engine producing 806 hp, while running on 91 octane gasoline. The car's chassis was built from carbon fibre, reinforced with Kevlar and aluminium honeycomb. Throughout its production, Koenigsegg has produced various CCX variants:
* '''CCXR''' (2007-2009) 9 units - a more GreenAesop version of the CCX, using modified fuel injectors and E85 and E100 ethanol fuel. Engine power uprated to 1,018 hp.
* '''CCX Edition/CCXR Edition/CCXR Special Edition''' (2008-2009) 8 units combined - A much more track-oriented version compared to the standard model, notable for its carbon-fiber body.
* '''CCXR Trevita''' [[note]]Swedish for ''three whites''.[[/note]] (2008-2009) 2 units - An extremely limited edition of the CCXR, notable for its diamond weave carbon fibre finish. Once owned by famous boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
* '''CCGT''' (2007) 1 unit - a race-spec version of the CCX, solely intended to compete in the then-FIA [=GT1=].
The CC series would cease production in 2010 with 49 units combined in total. It was succeeded by the twin-turbocharged Agera.

Production of the 500 cars required for homologation in Group 4 commenced in 1973 and the Stratos was homologated for the 1974 WRC season. The car won the 1974, 1975 and 1976 championship titles in the hands of Sandro Munari and Björn Waldegård."''
-->--'''Description''', ''''VideoGame/{{DIRT}}'' Rally 2.0''
Perhaps everyone who knows about UsefulNotes/{{Rallying}} pretty much knows about this classic rally car legend from Lancia.
The Lancia Stratos HF Stradale (Tipo 829) is a mid-engined rear-wheel drive sports car that was intended for replace the aging Lancia Fulvia HF for rallying, produced from 1973 to 1978.
Introduced at the 1971 Turin Motor Show, Bertone presented its Strtos prototype, just a year after its announcement of the Stratos Zero concept car. The prototype has three different engines throughout development; a Lancia V4 from the said Fulvia, and inline-4 from the Beta and the mid-mouned Ferrari Dino V6, which the latter most was used when production finally pushed through. Its power output produces 190 horsepower, and was compatible with a 5-speed manual transmission. Its notable feature of the Stratos is its distinctive wedge-shaped body, which would later be the codifier and trend of the "Italian Wedge" in future sports cars, such as the Lamborghini Countach and the Ferrari Testarossa. Only about 492 Stratos models were produced throughout its production.
The Stratos was designed to participate in the rally world, which would see action in the UsefulNotes/WorldRallyChampionship. Thanks to its small, but very lightweight body, the car won 18 rallies, courtesy of resident Italian driver Sandro Munari, which also helped won 3 consecutive championships from 1974 to 1976. [[https://cdn.motor1.com/images/mgl/nv14l/s1/lancia-stratos.jpg Its distinctive Alitalia livery]] has become one of the most notable and iconic rally cars in history.

* Resident {{Tsundere}} of the PowerTrio, Lisa Sakakino of ''Anime/ExDriver'' is the driver behind her classic CoolCar; a blue Group 4-spec Lancia Stratos HF (from episode 2 onwards) which she uses to stop erratic AutomatedAutomobiles. Previously, she drives an Impreza, which got wrecked in the process (due to AWD being too impractical for maneuvering).
* Batou from ''Anime/GhostInTheShellStandAloneComplex'' drives one of his most beloved possessions he has in his CoolCar collection, and that is a yellow Lancia Stratos, a'' very'' rare 1970s racing coupe that he truly in love with.
* In ''Anime/LupinIIIPartII'', a snobbish race car driver named Kaguya challenges Lupin in a race in her green Group 5 Stratos-esque sports car around the coastal roads of Monaco.
* As expected where CoolCar is the emphasizing premise, ''Anime/{{Overtake}}'' has Noritsune Ena, the owner of Belsorriso, who drives a Lancia Stratos as his personal car.
[[AC:Comic Books]]
* The Stratos is Slicer's alt-mode in ''ComicBook/TransformersShatteredGlass2021''.
[[AC:Film -- Live Action]]
* The titular Moonwalker car in ''Film/{{Moonwalker}}'' where Music/MichaelJackson during the "Smooth Criminal" section [[TransformingVehicle transforms]] into this car as he gets away freely from the gangsters. That said car is the Lancia Stratos Zero concept car. Very [[ImprobablyCoolCar improbable]], futuristic-looking, and indeed reached the crowd.
[[AC:Video Games]]
* As a UsefulNotes/{{Rallying}} legend, the Lancia Stratos has appeared in rally-based racing games, typically as a DifficultButAwesome car (due to its nimble lightweight body prone to oversteering, especially on surfaces that aren't asphalt);
** ''VideoGame/ColinMcRaeRally'' is perhaps this, typically as a bonus car and in its distinctive Alitalia livery. The ''VideoGame/{{DIRT}}'' series has become a long-time staple RWD classic with the [[ImprobablyCoolCar improbable]] New Stratos by Fenomenon, a modern-era recreational concept that's being in the same RWD class as the Stratos itself.
** The Lancia Stratos in ''VideoGame/RallyTrophy'' defines what is CoolButInefficient; it has an absurdly powerful motor, absurdly great acceleration, break-neck top speed... [[CripplingOverspecialization but apparently zero grip on anything else than tarmac/asphalt]]...
** The Lancia Stratos appears as a [[SecretCharacter secret car]] in ''VideoGame/SegaRally Championship'', which goes much faster than the other two cars [[AwesomeButImpractical but in the arcade version it handles like it's on ice]] This became a mainstay in later games.
* As part of July 2023's American Legends update, ''VideoGame/TheCrew2'' adds this rally legend to the lineup. A Rallycross counterpart is also added on the same update, which was based on its Group 4 rally car.
* It only shows up as the only Lancia car in ''VideoGame/DriverSanFrancisco''. One mission has John Tanner has to retrieve back the Stratos as one of the stolen vintage cars that were to be sold at an auction.
* This wedge-shaped sports car shows up in every single ''VideoGame/{{Forza}}'' game (except the 2023 reboot), with of the Group 4-spec that was only exclusive to ''Horizon 3'' and ''Motorsport 7''.
* The Stratos first appeared in ''VideoGame/GranTurismo 2'', which can be obtained as a prize car. Fit racing modifications and you can turn it into an Alitalia-cladded rally car. While it was Dummied out in ''3'', it fully returns in ''4'', with the road car and rally car now being separate models. ''5'' onwards replaced the iconic Alitalia livery with a [[BlandNameProduct generic one]],[[note]]It is possibly due to licensing issues, and Alitalia would declare bankruptcy in 2008.[[/note]] but the game won't stop you from recreating the Alitalia livery in ''Sport'' ad ''7''.
* Outside of the rally world, ''VideoGame/{{GRID}} (2019)'' has this as a Classic GT car, based on its Circuit-spec Group 4 race car.
* This "off-road enthusiast" appears as the "[[{{Fauxrrari}} Dustdriver]]" in ''VideoGame/HorizonChase''. Its 2nd anniversary skin resembles the one of the Martini livery.
* Ditto in ''VideoGame/MotorStorm: Apocalypse'' as the Italia Cirrus is also a Group 5 Stratos {{Expy}} with some added flares from a Ford [=RS200=].
* Prbably one of the notable classics in ''VideoGame/ProjectGothamRacing 2'' and ''4''. [[WeakButSkilled While it may not have lots of power, but its lightweight body makes the car nimble around corners.]]
* The homologated Groupe 4 edition of this Italian classic is available as a DownloadableContent in ''VideoGame/TestDriveUnlimited 2''. Just find all the wrecks in Ibiza and this wedged sports car is yours.
* A rally version of the Stratos is seen in ''[=ToCA=] Race Driver 3'', restricted only on rally courses. [[https://igcd.net/vehicle.php?id=6930 Its Alitalia colors were inverted and the logo was replaced with the Supersprint logo]], possibly as as a way of WritingAroundTrademarks.
[[AC:Western Animation]]
* Wheeljack of ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'' has the Stratos as his alt-mode. With colors lookin exactly like the one of the Alitalia livery.

->''"I usually kill traction control. But in this car, it definitely feels faster with the traction control on. ... I like that feeling of walking that line, getting into that edge."''
-->--'''Creator/PaulWalker''', [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuEFULhT6pQ on the Lexus LFA after driving it around Willow Springs]]
Perhaps it's Japan's first exotic supercar, that took [[DevelopmentHell 5 years to develop.]]
The LFA (short for '''L'''exus '''F'''uture '''A'''dvance) is Lexus's two seater supercar manufactured from 2010 to 2012, and it is the first standalone F-series model, the first of the LF lineup and the brand's first ever supercar.
Development for the LFA dates all the way back during the start of the TurnOfTheMillennium when both Toyota and Lexus intend to produce a supercar to showcase its performance and aerodynamic capabilities. The first SuperPrototype was finished in 2003, and underwent numerous tests around the Nürburgring where the car was equipped with a retractable rear spoiler and carbon ceramic brake discs.
The LF-A was finally introduced to the world on January 2005 at the North American International Auto Show in UsefulNotes/{{Detroit}}, despite having no plans for production. The car was designed in collaboration between Toyota and Italian designer Leonardo Fioravanti. Notable features of the car other than its retractable spoiler is its twin rear radiators, turbine shaped wheels and mostly its triple exhaust placed in an [[SinisterGeometry upside-down triangle position]]. Rumors say it was green-lit for production, though reports stated it was not officially confirmed.
The second concept was introduced in 2007, with a much more restyled body, a more aerodynamic exterior and having a fully-functional interior. The car had plans of utilizing a V10 and a hybrid engine. The following year, a roadster variant of the concept was unveiled.
On August 5, 2009, Toyota officially confirmed that the LFA will go into production, where it's expected it will carry V10 engines. The car was officially unveiled at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show and it would also mark as part of Lexus's 20th [[MilestoneCelebration anniversary]]. Under the hood is a 4.8 L even-firing V10 engine, producing 553-563 hp, and the car's body made fully of carbon-fiber reinforced polymer. As for performance, the car accelerates 0-62 in 3.7 seconds and can reach 326 km/h (203 mph).
The LFA officially ended in December 2012 with exactly 500 cars produces, with the final car being the track-focused LFA Nürburgring Package/Edition.

[[AC:Anime and Manga]]
* The anime adaptation of ''Manga/DimensionW'' exchanges Kyoma Mabuchi's vintage-loving Toyota [=2000GT=] for a modern-day supercar; a while Lexus LFA.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8nzwJ3uCgE The "supercar" that Chisato sees]] in Episode 2 of ''Anime/LycorisRecoil'' is a red Lexus LFA. It's no wonder she wanted to drive it, and then went all mopey afterwards when Walnut shows up in a much less extravagant white hatchback and they have to leave the Lexus behind.
-->'''Chisato:''' WOOOAAAH! '''IT'S A SUPERCAAAR!! CHECK IT OUT!! AMAZING!'''\\
'''Takina:''' A car like that stands out.\\
'''Chisato:''' I'm sorry, but I GOTTA DRIVE THAT THING!\\
(''A moment later just as they drive away'')\\
'''Chisato:''' (''To Walnut'') Hey, hold on! You're gonna leave the supercar here!? (''Smash Cut'') ''But I wanna ride in the'' '''''supercaaaaaar!'''''
[[AC:Film -- Live Action]]
* At the end of ''Film/FastFive'', Han Lue and Gisele Yashar speed along the autobahn in a black Lexus LFA, whilst planning on their trip to Tokyo. (which whould {{foreshadow|ing}} the events of ''Tokyo Drift'')
* Creator/KevinSpacey's character ''Film/{{Nine Lives|2016}}'' owns a white LFA he usually drives around New York. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arnK9qmjq64 Even there is a commercial posted by Lexus themselves dedicated to it]].
[[AC:Video Games]]
* The Platform/PlayStation2 release of ''Franchise/TheFastAndTheFurious'' features TheLeader of [[https://youtu.be/-T3xdzdWJUA?feature=shared&t=924 Sunshine Run named Fujio]] who would drive a SuperPrototype RiceBurner [[note]]Since the car has no body kits other than the spoiler[[/note]], which is the 2005 LF-A Concept.
* This supercar has been fully present since ''VideoGame/ForzaMotorsport 3'', where in ''Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious'', appears as on of the Bucket List events. Plus, only exclusive to the very first ''Horizon'' game gets you to drive this rare bird; the track-tuned LFA Nürburgring Edition.
* It's one of the premium supercars of ''VideoGame/GranTurismo 5'', where the Nürburgring Package joins in the following game. In the Spec II update of ''7'', you can get your hands on this supercar for free by completing Master International B-License with all Golds, and you can recreate the said Nürburgring Package with its aero parts. Oh, and did we mention is ''five times more expensive than the previous 2 games?''
* The LFA was introduced in ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeedShift'', albeit in its [[ImprobablyCoolCar concept form]], where it was featured as the Invitational Event car set in Silverstone National. Its sequel fully uses the production version and is also one of the Speedhunters cars. That being said, it spawned in later games;
** ...where it appears as the car of the #7 of TheMostWanted racer in ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeedMostWanted2012''.
** And in ''[[VideoGame/NeedForSpeedRivals Rivals]]'', it's considered as a rank 9 RCPD car.
* Terrazi's brand new super sports machine, the Centellee, introduced in ''VideoGame/RidgeRacer 7'' strongly resembles the 2005 LF-A Concept.
