Top Gear episode: Lexus LFA
|
Why even bother with those 'wet laps'?
They are no real representation of the cars' ability. |
^agreed.
I watched it last night and loved the whole episode, plus the tach on the lfa is great. |
lfa is awesome and the tach is so sexy to bad is so expensive
|
def not worth the cost of the car but I still like it none the less
|
The camera work and effects in that review were awesome.
Yep, the LF-A is too expensive, and it's too ugly. |
i love the car but it costs too much :) top gear is the best though
|
Why watch it on YooTooB? Download the hi-def torrent.
|
All of the LFA's numbers are below its competition except price.
|
^ lol true that
|
It has one of the best sounding engines ever, and the coolest gauge cluster known to man but i think they should have put it in some sort of package that competes with the GTR instead of this thing that no one is going to buy.
$350k or whatever it is is a lot of money for something that is basically a Lexus SC350 gone beserk. |

How many are they making, 300? They'll sell all 300.
|
i think it's 500.. yeah they will sell out as soon as they're placed on the market
|
It's basically $545,000 U.S. dollars, def a nice car, that's for sure
It's unique, that's what makes it special and appealing to some people. True, it is way overpriced and not up to par with it's competition with numbers, but it's still something I wouldn't mind driving. |

I think it is a good looking car, but I don't think the performance is good enough for the price, but I bet it'll have the nicest interior of the supercars. Saw it rotating on the stand at the LA Auto Show.
|
I think it will last twice as long as the average supercar.

I love top Gear but that review did not do the LFA justice, but I guess that's to be expected from a 4-minute cinematic review. From everything ELSE I've seen, the LFA appears to be one of the most exquisite, overengineered, and refined road cars ever created. The technical details are pretty much staggering, especially regarding engine layout, advances in carbon fiber construction, and engine weight/precision. The thing revs in neutral from 0 to 9,000 RPM in 0.6 seconds!
People are (wrongly) viewing it at a one-up GTR. What they really should be comparing it to is a more refined (though not nearly as pretty) Ferrari Enzo or Carerra GT. The people buying this thing are the people who realize what a pearl it is, and would pay twice the asking price for sure. Those 500 will be gone in a half second.... |
I saw it in person and honestly I love the car but not worth it at all...

too expensive i agree... but too ugly? are you serious? i think it looks absolutely stunning

I agree with j_tso. The styling is not supercar styling. Its styling is like transformers or something gaudy that a tuner in high school might come up with. The price is ridiculous, yet performance can't match its competition.
Let's put it another way. Whatever supercar styling is, the LFA doesn't have it. |
