The same could be said about a lot of cars it. Its really a matter of opinion. I own a lexus myself, but I am not bias when it comes to cars due to what I own or what brand. I can however tell you that owning a lexus has swayed me more towards loving this car just because I followed what went into it. Sure, as far as performance in a straight line goes, it is NOT that impressive only beating the GTR by minimal feet in the 1/4. But, it seems this car will decimate on the track with what has been speculated (not confirmed) 7:24 on the nurburgring. Anyways all 500 have already sold so it would appear that the 10 years lexus put into this car paid off.


maybe owning a 400k lexus is ridiculously stupid given the fact that you can get more for less. But at the end of the day, its still a remarkable piece of engineering.

Pish posh, Negative Nancy. Bugatti loses money on each Veyron if I remember right, and they only reason they made that was to see if they could (even if I think their quad-turbo W16 was ridiculously impractical...). Doesnt stop me from thinking its a sexy car, though.

Same goes for the LFA.

If I had millions of dollars to blow and I wanted an exclusive car that has a badass interior any gadget freak would blow a nut over...I'd definitely get it lol.

There's so much more to automobiles than just test track numbers.

in that case the LFA doesnt even beat the GTR... i dont know what it would run under different circumstances but GTRs run 11.5 stock all day long not 11.9 like that video showed

Watched the head-to-head of a GT-R against an LFA from C&D. GT-R got the jump (barely, but did), and they said they babied the LFA and didnt even want to contemplate damaging it, and it still edged the GT-R out.

Furthermore, they said anywhere past the quarter mile, the LFA just made the GT-R look dumb, as it started pulling and pulling.

Now, you cant tell me that someone ****** up the launch on the GT-R and the LFA somehow still edged it out?
