The Lexus (it's not marked as Toyota anywhere in the world, and Lexus is far more distinct from Toyota than Scion is) LFA uses a single clutch electrohydraulic transmission - no torque converter in sight. As for the Audi? I'm not sure about the older R-tronic transmission (which wasn't amazing, but I don't know exactly how it worked), but the new ones are either the S-tronic (double clutch, and much better than the old R-tronic) or manual. Once again, no torque converters here.
