hmm. 11.8 1/4. sweet.
lfa makes the gtr look and sound so boring. the stance of the lfa is so aggressive, makes the gtr look high and FAT

[Zh@ne]

^^ yea but its the difference in price which would ultimately lead to the lfa down fall to the gtr

agreed

[Sinister_Audio]

given the price difference, it puts the lexus IN the supercar category, not only via performance.

As far as I see, the GTR wins..



But the LFA does have some nice stats though.. check the 60 - 0 braking distance!

i saw this yesterday, the GTR wins in my book hands down, LF-A goes for $400,000.00 where as the GTR retails at about $80,000.00, i think the sales on that lexus will flop, only time will tell

It's more "limited production" than the GTR so the flopping of sales... I don't think that's possible.

apparently its selling out. weird huh... i expected same thing as you.

oh well. such is life...

[2NR Smurf]

Who could afford the LF-A would most certainly buy it over the GT-R......GT-Rs are common sight now in most parts of the world.

i'd prefer a Mercedes Benz McLaren SLR 722, or a Ferrari 599 GTB if i had a 400k USD to spare.

oh well, chances are the persons buying the Lexus LFA already have a McLaren or Ferrari anyhow...

[Dragsta]

the LFA looks damn wikked....
but sry, not paying 400K USD for that kinda performance... would prefer the parlour car..

for that kinda looks, research and materials and Time put in the LFA.... this should hav alot more performance

[Rooki3]

i want to see it on tsukuba against the GTR

[~Vēġó~]

me still prefer gtr!!!!

[3stagevtec]

but which car has greater modification potential? I say the GTR in this case as well because of the drive train.. the 4 wheel drive system will always be superior at handling massive amounts of power vs a FR layout..

even if I had 400k to spend, the LFA would be at the bottom of my list of cars to buy.. a Pagani or Ferrari would be my 1st choice..

yet the fastest accelerating cars on the planet are all RWD

ahhhh a man who thinks like me
the LF-A was always guaranteed to sell out esp at that price, which I foresee increasing by the time these hit the auction circuit

Porsche 911 GT2 RS.
Talk done.

[tourniquet]

Lexus sounds fantastic

[honda hoe]

LFA > GTR

[Rooki3]

jus watched them both on Top Gear

GTR - 1:19.7

LFA - 1:22.8 (wet)

[Samiir_Tuner]

the LFA is nice but is it really $320,000 nicer than the GTR? i think its quite ridiculous that pricing. and i also wanna see how this car performs with a few miles on it. props to the engine being so light though!

[seecarr11]

^^ think about the cost of the other cars that use carbon fibre as extensively as this one (hint *mercedes*) and then add the lexus trim/attention to luxury. When u do that its easy to see why they are going at that price.
Also even though toyota fell short in quality recently, the lexus brand has always been known for quality/ reliability. Those 10+years of JD power awards didn't come by just looking pretty. I'm sure they making sure the quality is there with this one. They even burn one down at the 24hr le manns to ensure it would last when they went into production.
