At least it's MUCH lower than the WRX STi.
That's the centerline of the crank it looks like. Mathmatically that's 18.11", not the 17.8" previously stated so either the 17.8 is wrong or the 460mm isn't CoG. 18.11" is more than my Integra so I doubt that's accurate... I hope not.

Also they never said the lowest, they said one of the lowest. GT3's are lower too.

looks like it. now i understand why they say it was built with a convertible in mind. must have a very rigid "spine" like the S2000.

I agree with Dave. I think that is the center of the crank they are showing there. The engine in the LFA has a dry sump so they can seat it lower in the car. The CoG for this car could still be below the centerline for the crank. Especially when you look at the seating layout, and the rear suspension diagram. They really stuffed things down low.
