Lexus supercar birthday gift for Paris Hilton

Celebrity heiress and socialite Paris Hilton got an extra special 30th birthday surprise when she was gifted a Lexus LFA supercar by her entrepreneur boyfriend, Cy Waits.

The Lexus isn't an obvious choice for the heiress, even if its sizeable £330,000 price tag is fitting.

The LFA is considered to be an edgy, hardcore driver's car that'll be a whole lot more difficult to drive than her (bright pink) Bentley Continental.

With a high-revving 4.8-litre V10 engine and 552bhp output, a paddle-shifted gearbox and suspension set up for track driving, the LFA is more suited to the Nürburgring circuit than Beverly Hills.

Waits initially gave a yellow LFA to Hilton as a prank, though Hilton later revealed by Twitter that her own car would actually be pearl white.

Naturally, the presenting of the car was caught on camera as Paris is being filmed for her new reality show.
