Fall Asleep To Three Hours Of Pure Lexus LFA Engine Sounds
Need something relaxing to send you to sleep? 181 minutes and three seconds of nothing but V10 should help
Lexus LFA NĆ¼rburgring Edition
I know there are many of us out there who simply canāt get to sleep without some form of background noise going. Personally, soothing boiler sounds through my bedside Echo Dot or watching ā200 PokĆ©mon facts to send you to sleepā usually does this trick. However, it seems thereās a new, dreamier way.
For reasons we quite frankly donāt know but wonāt argue with, Toyota has quietly been uploading unlisted three-hour-long videos of pure engine sounds over the course of the last few months.
Strangely, that started with uninterrupted sounds of the JDM Subaru Levorg Laybackās boxer-four towards the end of the summer. A neat thing, but not exactly the most inspiring of choices.
Itās gone and topped itself now, though. Around a month ago but now only just surfacing, the Toyota Times YouTube channel uploaded a video 181 minutes and three seconds long of nothing but pure Lexus LFA noises. Oh, hello.
Unfortunately, I canāt quite justify spending three hours of my working day doing nothing but watching but a skim through reveals a mix of revs, idling, starting and stopping. It seems some of the clips are repeated, but thatās not something to complain about.
I donāt need any data or research to tell you that the Yamaha-tuned Lexus V10 is one of, if not the best-sounding engines to find its way into a production car. Ā Better still, this one isnāt in just any Lexus LFA, but an example of the limited-run NĆ¼rburgring Edition. Consider us all very jealous of whoeverās job it was to make this video.

Hopefully, Toyota has more videos to come in this format ā if there arenāt already some more unlisted ones waiting to suddenly appear online. Itād be easy to scream and shout for any kind of 2JZ, or maybe a 3UZ. The one I really want next though is a bit of Century V12, please and thanks.
