deathmonkey Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 It looks, sounds, goes absolutely stunning. I want that front bumper on my Supra ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackWatch66 Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 You really wouldn't. I fear you're going for a "look at me, aren't I funny" moment there. slightly uncalled for dude. and I really would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Still my favorite engine/exhaust sound to date in my 31 years. There is something funky going one - 10 cylinders into 3 pipes... hmm. I'll never forget seeing & hearing it testing at the Nurburgring nearly 3 years ago. It's an absolutely amazing machine and an incredible car. Yep, sounds like an F1 car - how nice was the speedo cluster! what a brilliant lap time! in the wet in wooped the ass of a lambo in the dry! It should do, though for that price. If they were £100k-£150k I could see them selling lots! slightly uncalled for dude. and I really would. Still doubt you would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I'll never forget seeing & hearing it testing at the Nurburgring nearly 3 years ago. It's an absolutely amazing machine and an incredible car. So it should be for £340k I do like it but i'd rather have something like the Scaglietti with some curves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackWatch66 Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Are they all gonna be LHD? And what does LFA stand for? Apparently Lexus Future-Advance or Lexus F***ing-Awsome. Maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Massey Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Amazing car, would of been better with the supra logo on it. And i thought this was the joint venture with toyota and lexus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadyn Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 However, I have no doubt, that featuring the extensive design, development and needless to say it will be heavily over engineered unlike anything which can be considered competition is a marvel itself. A great piece of kit. Bit like the mk 4 Supra back in the 93. Thing is that only cost £40k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_SZ-R Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Considering that even at that price Lexus still dont break even, let alone make a profit I would have thought they would have priced it more sensibly (the right side of £250k for example, and even that looks expensive compared to the competition). If its going to be a Veyron-esque engineering showcase not meant to make the company money then why price it so unrealistically? Now its always going to be remembered as 'the-great-but-stupidly-priced-Lexus-supercar'. All that said, it is truly awesome in every way.

bradleyh_15 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 great piece of engineering and some fantastic technology but as mentioned the price tag is some what ott considering every other car in and around its class! maybe if it had a different badge on the bonnet it may be able to ask somewhere near what they are!

tbourner Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 maybe if it had a different badge on the bonnet it may be able to ask somewhere near what they are! Like what? Ferraris and Lambos don't go for much more than 100k generally, they'd get the same roasting as Lexus for such a price. It's only single car previously unknown brands like Pagani that can get away with that price, so by that rationale it's not so bad as Lexus have been previously unknown in the hypercar world.

Suprab1 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 If i had the money i'd have to buy one. Ah well i can always dream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradleyh_15 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 exactly and the pagani is off the wall and a one off taste a true hyper car can that really be said about the LFA? in my opinion no! however I do like the LFA but personally if I had that kind of money to spend on a toy I would not choose the LFA! just my opinion!

Stratty Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I thought the car looked and sounded amazing. Even with such a price tag, they wont have any problem selling them. If you think the car is too expensive then you simply dont have enough money. A few arabs will soon have them on display in their garages. I wish we could have seen it go around the track in the dry. Would have been very interesting. I am not too keen on the front end, but the rear is something special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomgeer Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I hate the front end, the rest of the car looks good but a stupid price tag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adnanshah247 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Richard Hammond cant power slide for shyt! they really should have let Jeremy Clarkson test that car, then we would have seen some serious action!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with such a price tag, they wont have any problem selling them. If you think the car is too expensive then you simply dont have enough money. A few arabs will soon have them on display in their garages. Yeah if I had LOADS of money I'd want one for the collection cos it is awesome! But if I was a pretty well off manager of some kind who could afford to get one but doesn't have stupid money to throw away, I'd probably opt for an F430 instead and keep the remainder.

Abz Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 If I had the money then I would buy it, because most of the rich love badge chasing they wouldn't buy, instead they would buy another Ferrari or Lamborghini. This would then make the LFA more exclusive & thus more desirable, as Ferrari's are too common these days. In regards to the price, would you not say then the Bugatti Veyron is over priced? £800.000 - £100,000,000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What and Clarkson can, all clarkson would do is lose control and do donuts as thats all he can do, he is the worst driver i have ever seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
