This is just speculation, but I would hazard to guess that if you drove a LF-A and a GTR back to back, the LF-A would probably leave you with the bigger smile. GTRs are a dime a dozen in Socal, you don't see too many LFAs in comparison and they definitely have more presence on the street.

But the GTR can fight it at the track for a fraction of the cost. Similar to a Vette taking on a Ferrari. If tuned properly, maybe the Vette pulls the Ferrari at a track, but then when you drive them both into town, everyone ooh's and ah's over the Italian, because Vettes are cheaper and more common. |

Nice looking and fast cars, but ZR1 is the true sports car. The true connection between man and machine. Not these slam the gas pedal and go crap. Not trying to offend anyone, just stating my opinion.

I'm sure everyone knows this already, but Yamaha used their sound engineers (since they make so much sound enquipment and instruments) to perfect the exhaust note. It's not just an unintended by-product of the engine and exhaust design. The specifically made it sound the way it does.
