Not sure if I like it yet, but it does seem way to expensive. Anyway, :tup: to toyota for trying to deliver some soul to their brand. ---

You can pretty much win me over with a high revving V10 every time. By far my favorite engine configuration of all time. It isn’t really put up against the GTR, which is why it’s limited production, F1 based V10, carbon chassis, etc. I really think they did this as a “just because” much like the Bugatti Veyron (sold for 1.3 million each, cost over $3 million each to produce). ---

I like it a lot. In my opinion the styling and interior on the Skyline pale in comparison. When buying a car like this performance isn’t everything. If it was, you’d just mod something cheaper. I’m hoping this leads into the resurrection of the Supra in a few years. Wishful thinking… ---

after looking through all of those autoblog photos i conclude that this car looks like total ass… the GTR kills it… and will likely also outperform this ‘thing’ i’ll snap some shots at SEMA next week and post them up. I anticipate there being heavy security or clean up personal in the vacinity of the LFA removing fainted on-lookers and mopping up puke. ---
