“Godzilla vs. Mothra” LFA sounds soooooo good. ---

I’m more interested in seeing how they tackle each other around a road course. ---

> [@Paulo](#): > > I’m more interested in seeing how they tackle each other around a road course. Absolutely. Straight line does nothing for me. Also, correct me if I am wrong but at 4x the price tag i’d much rather buy 4 gt-r’s. This would leave me with 3 extra transmissions and enough money for some quality coke and hookers. 🙂 The LFA had better do some serious work on a road coarse or I just can’t justify the price. ---

tons of fail here… an extra $320,000 for 0.01 seconds in the 1/4 mile eh? the GTR isn’t even a straight line car… it’s got like 150hp less than the LFA. Also, the LFA is one of the stupidest looking cars i’ve ever seen… it’s uglier than a Mercedes Mclaren SLR… and that shit is ugly… before the LFA Toyota hasn’t made a single cool car since they stopped making the Supra… imho, the MK4 Supra was better than this LFA… throw $5k into a $30k supra and it will tromp the LFA straight line… new the Supra was under $70k wasnt it?.. more fail fail fail on this LFA. Oh… and MT sucked the bag hard on their mimicry of Top Gear… it’s not easy looking awesome weaving around pylons in a parking lot… certainly not for a $400,000 car that’s for sure ---

I amazed at how large the GTR looks compared to the LFA… And agreed on all previous comments about the LFA being a bit of a let down. ---

if the LFA had a much smaller price tag, id go for the n/a v10 all day but its too expensive. arent they only making 500? and lexus has to approve you so u can buy one. i also heard that lexus wants these cars to been seen on the tarck and DD and not in a collectors garage. ---

well spinning out of the hole isn’t helping it’s time one bit. with no spin i’m certain that would be a low 11. still can’t justify the price. but can you justify the price of a lambo either? cars like that shine past the quarter mile. ---

wow, that lexus sounds good. I’m sure we’ll see some 'ring times coming out soon for the whole picture.
