Hm... I was reading different website article on this LFA and most ppl's feed back was so negative. Most of the reasons were 1)It's too damn expensive 2)It's Lexus 3)Don't have enough Power.

I thought, it has nice spec and right price for first Japanese excotic car.

Looks amazing, Does anyone else see some resemblance to the Supra (with a body kit) on the front and side profile?

My lame cell phone video of the Lexus LFA at Cars and Coffee Irvine

Yes, the commentary sounds dumb, I know. And I have a mushroom on my head. That engine note is bomb, tho.

The only thing I dislike about that car is that the hood never looks fully closed...
