The people that go on about it's lap times, acceleration times, cost (like it matters once you have 400k to spend on a car) just don't get the point at all and that's too bad. When a company puts everything it knows about making driving a car amazing the end result is never anything more or less than what was intended. In SO many ways the LFA embodies the Japanese spirit far better than the GTR. The GTR is a solution to a problem; I need to get from here to here in this much time and it needs to cost no more than this much. As for the other exotics, the name itself precludes any idea that someone is cross-shopping them! "hmm I have 400 thousand dollars to spend.....well, the Ferrari looks nice hmmm but the new Aventador has more horsepower hmmm....OH WAIT, I have 8 cars already so I'll just buy two more who cares..."


Sorry for the rant but given the spirit of this website and how much love we're showing for the 86 (which on paper is completely obsolete) it's obvious most people on here "get it".
AMEN BROTHA!
