Paris Hilton Adds a Second Lexus LFA to Her Collection
Paris Hilton, already known for her yellow Lexus LFA, has been photographed driving a white example, making her one of the few owners with two of the rare Japanese supercars.
Paris Hilton, known for her high-profile car collection, has been seen driving not one but two different Lexus LFA supercars, making her one of the very few owners to possess more than one of the 500 units ever produced.
A birthday gift and a rare second LFA
Hilton’s first LFA, finished in yellow, was a gift from then-boyfriend Cy Waits for her 30th birthday in early 2011. The car, valued at $375,000, stood out not just for its price but for its exclusivity. Lexus produced only 500 examples of the LFA, and the allocation was tightly controlled, with most cars going to established collectors and loyal Lexus customers.
The yellow LFA was widely covered in the press when Hilton took delivery, and she was frequently seen driving it in Los Angeles. After her split from Waits later that year, speculation arose about whether she would keep the car, but there was no public indication she returned it or sold it.
Spotted in a white LFA
In July 2011, photographers captured Hilton behind the wheel of a white Lexus LFA on the Pacific Coast Highway near Malibu. The sighting prompted questions about how she came to own a second example, given the rarity and strict allocation of the model. There has been no public statement from Hilton or Lexus confirming whether she purchased the white LFA outright or acquired it through another arrangement, but photographic evidence confirms she has driven both cars.
A rare double in the supercar world
Owning two LFAs is almost unheard of, given the car’s limited production and the effort Lexus made to distribute them among enthusiasts and collectors. The LFA’s appeal comes from its naturally aspirated V10, advanced carbon-fibre construction and the fact that it marked a high point for Lexus performance engineering. Paris Hilton’s dual ownership is unusual even among celebrities and supercar collectors.
