**sigh, where do I start**
It's useless arguing with you, because obviously you prefer the big engine in an "I don't care how much it weighs because I have one thousand torques" kind of car. Should have been obvious... you drive a MkIII.
The LFA's transmission has been described as "harsh" but it was designed to be that way. This is the only review where it has been described as letting the car down. Yes. The Sequential is "slow".... if you can call 0.2s slow. It is that way because that is the way they wanted it to be. You don't think Lexus had the money and resources to design a double clutch transmission if they felt that it was necessary for the car? The ASG was developed specially for the LFA.
The Benz has a better engine? You must be out of your ever living mind. It has more rear weight bias? What's your point? If Lexus felt that the LFA needed more weight in the back, they probably would have put the engine there in the first place. The car does exactly what it's designed to do, and does a damn good job at it.
I'm not saying the SLS isn't a great car, it is. But the LFA is better. Performance does not = 0-60 and 1/4 mile.... I guess the Euro car lovers only feel that those parameters = performance when they get slaughtered around the track, in driving response and overall sensation.
Where it the other way around, we'd be hearing fairly tail bullshit about "soul" and what's not.
Puh-lease.
