Even just a few years ago it was a poster child for the overly hip and crazy-eyed eco warriors, now its wake is full of hybrids from the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/fusion">Ford Fusion</a> to the... <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/lfa">Lexus LFA</a>? Brenda Priddy's viewfinder settled on an LFA mule with a flap on the hood that, theory holds, could be covering up a plug-in socket. <br />
<br />
The context supposes that <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/porsche">Porsche</a> is <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/04/26/900-people-reportedly-on-the-books-for-porsche-918-spyder/">serious about making the 918</a>, and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/lexus/">Lexus</a>, with the conventionally-powered LFA already proving itself in customer hands, could jump the lights with a hybrid and get ahead early in the eco supercar stakes. It's all conjecture for now, but not entirely impossible to believe. However, if Lexus makes U.S. buyers <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/03/17/lexus-lfa-lease-for-12-400-per-month-298-000-due-at-signi/">jump through flaming hoops</a> for the standard LFA, who knows what kind of wire-walking act they'll need to pull off to get an LFA Hybrid.<br />
