and lamborghini started out making tractors, this is lexus’ attempt at building a supercar, just because they haven’t built one before doesn’t mean they can’t ever build one, and it seems to be successful since i heard they are all spoken for. and this isn’t the first time a normal manufacture has built a supercar, remember the million dollar nissan r390? it was a road car…and what exactly would you like the car to do in the 1/4 mile? and i think the 'ring is what most manufactures use as bench marks for their cars performance these days. and i don’t have a clue what the lf-a does there either. but everyone on this forum that thinks it’s over priced prob will never have a chance to own one, so it doesn’t matter anyways.
