And gues your definition of hauling butt is perhaps a little different than mine as the Caparo T1 could beat LFA by a minute on the Ring. That would be time enough to get out of the car and make a nice espresso in comfort while driver in LFA would be still toiling away. There are super cars and than there are extreme crazy super cars.

I hear you on driving something that is comfy but do you really want a comfy track car? I want something that is crazy fast if I have unlimited budget.

FYI you could whoop butt on LSA for a lot cheaper too. How about Ariel Atom v8? It makes the LFA look like a slow porker.

if its purely a track car thats different. you didnt mention that before.

But if your goign to say that performance is based on looks via the bold statement.. thats croc. The GTR doesnt look like a serious performer. Performance should be based on... performance.
