So, I drove this...

[tristateZ28Lt1]

According to data that I have seen it ran the ring faster than Carrera GT, ZR-1, Enzo, MC12, Zonda F Clubsport, GT2 and GTR.



+1

Would love to see that data. BUT Sport-Auto did their Supertest with it and got a 7:38min. While that's impressive it's still nothing crazy that would justify the tremendous R&D costs (and purchase price)

Some more numbers: 0-62 / 0-124 / 0-186 / 186-0 / 0-186-0

Porsche 911 GT2 RS
3,4s / 9,8s / 28,6 s / 6,6s / 35,2s

Lamborhini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera
3,6s / 10,7s / 32,3s / 7,0s / 39,3s

Corvette ZR1
3,9s / 11,3s / 35,2s / 7,3s / 42,8s

Mercedes SLS AMG
3,9s / 11,7s / 42,2 s / 7,3 s / 49,5 s

Lexus LFA
4,0 s / 12,1 s / 50,6 s / 7,0 s / 57,6 s

Awesome. Definitely looks better in white though.

Isn't it lease only?

Not anymore. From what I was told you can purchase the car now, but if you go to sell it, Toyota has the first right to buy it back from you.

Below says it best. If you want to see that info just search for it. It's out there.

Chances are, the folks who buy this car already own a few other supercars and won't give two shits that the LFA takes 2 seconds longer to get to 124 MPH.

I personally don't see the point in getting hung up over stats at this price range. Every exotic is a different experience. Bang for your buck is meaningless in the supercar realm.

Put the magazines down for a sec, step back, and take a deep breath

lol but Motortrend said.......

 

[v6mustang164]

How did it sound in person? The videos I have seen it sounds amazing and revs like crazy.

 

[truebluedevil02]

to bad you dont get to BUY this car. You have to LEASE it from Lexus for like 5 years for 12,000 a month with a 50-60k down payment, THEN after the lease is up you can BUY it for another like 80K. Beautiful car but that is just stupid to say " OH you have the money to pay cash but we wont let you"

 

[chrisheltra]

Id like to see it in DSG or SB.

 

[Daniel]

Toyota rep said it will be available for purchase not lease only.

Who gives a shit about what color it was. How did it sound in real life and did you get to step on the gas if so well your thoughts compared to the cobra.

 

[SSMOKE-U]

I know the right guy is what it boils down to. I did get to hammer it, and it sounds like a beautiful symphony. Compared to Cobra... I would say there is no comparison. This is an all around package. This car can do things the Cobra couldnt dream of. The coolest part of the car is the gauge cluster. It is so incredibly cool its ridiculous.

 

[assasyn]

Awesome opportunity. Congrats.

Wasn't is similar with the F50, F40 and the Enzo? Had to meet certain criteria to buy from Ferrari?

 

[fangstang]

:xpl:

 

[LongDucDong]

The engine in that thing is outrageously sexy. Too bad it stuck in that fugly piece of crap body.

 

[BLK03SVT10TH]

The Front Bumper and Hood look like they belong to 2 different cars, they don't seem to match the style of the Fenders, and DAMN! could they have made the Rear Tail Lights any BIGGGGGER!!!!!!!!!!!!.

 

[LightningLou]

Coming from the guy driving a Contour

:nonono:

How you gonna hate on the svt contours? I have a 600hp lightning but the contour is definitely a fun little dd that handles well and moves out for what it is. Don't knock it till you try it my friend. :beer:

That Lfa is nice but doesnt really excite me. I would rather have an r8.

 

[JasonSnake]

I'd love to drive that



















... into the gulf of mexico!

 

[wjk]

Is that Zinc Yellow? :xpl:
