yes price tag is crazy but so is the bugatti and thats only good for going fast straight, at least the lexus can actually go round a track, viper is cheaper and better around a track but outside the track. your gonna see a viper more then an lfa and i personally cant stand seeing the same car i own driving down the road, at a track i would take a vette but if i had the money would buy an lfa for ...
@paul yea, German Italian English and maybe swedish. I think spyker and koenisegg (sorry about spelling) are both swedish.
Italian and German cars, English too are the only ones worth over $100,000 even to me.
I may have >.> lol Jk In all honesty I have seen more GTR's then ZR-1. Actually I don't think I've ever seen a random ZR-1 on the road.
I think z. Mocha just came on himself.....read several threads below:p lol. We have some serious cameo appearances on car buzz.
@mr. Tan. Relax and take a deep breath. You are so getting so excited that you forgot to put a space between" howmany " in your previous comment below. There are far less GTRs made per year than your Vette. Also, two very different cars for different type of buyers.
my whole country only have 1 Vette.. hahah.. but year.. GTR is super common here... every trip out i can at least see 1-2 of them.. they are great cars but just i feel its boring to see them everyday.. it changed from "wow a GTR" to "see another GTR =.="
if u want to comment just keep the price out from this... the difference of driving this thing is not because of the power but the exclusivity... it doesn’t matter howmany HP your GTR is when it is common as hell on the road like Honda Civics...
well... why are all of u complaining about the price tag if u cant afford it... besides... the car has only 500 in tha world and its already sold out... so for saying Lexus is dumb for the price tag why would they sell all 500 units of them/?? think people think..
Step 1. Start LFA Step 2. Rev to 8000 RPM Conclusion? Made girl c** Mission accomplished This car is stunning and the exhaust note is (as stated above, IMO) amazing. Yes over priced and a Toyota but who cares as long as you have the money.
Yeah but not as awesome as the Viper ACR. Wonder of they have coilovers and IFS?
Lol Matt you just proved you really don't know what your talking about, with those statements. As Leon said, take a seat
@Matt . Germans make the best cars in the world. Careful now. Choose your words carefully. Your excused, you may sit down now!!
Performance, and if it was getting it's ass handed to a car thats been out since '94, that had little to no electric nannies at all, then obviously all of that development went to waste... 10 years for that? And 375k? Dnt forget.. And to the guy that
@Matt Look at the NYIAS video for the Viper launch and their CEO talks about the interior design and the seats are made by the same company who makes the seats for Ferrari. Not a big deal, but big improvement over previous Vipers.
I'm sure the alleged crappy interior of the corvette looks better than my car. And that would look just fine for me
Yea it's def a cool car not my fav but I love the last gen acr that thing was stupid fast
Bout time US cars got some quality interiors always felt that's wat they lacked like the vette I mean yea it's a cool car but the inside is all crappy looking plastic how much is the new viper suppose to cost?
Yeah Matt, you would complain about if were a Dodge or Chevy. Because you've done that.
Than twice that this beat... And also with this, it'll last unlike a lot of American an some German cars
@ no pistons, their is something called a review... And y does it matter its a Lexus/Toyota... If it was a Chevy, dodge, ferrari, lambo... No one would complain about the price... 1 million ya I can agree that's stupid, but 375k... Their r cara more
An bills right, 2013 viper interior uses the same source as Ferrari and mas.
Yeah it could easily sell for around 100k and be considered the new supra it looks enough like one but it doent its way over price for the performance it returns it could be a decent vett or viper compeditor but its rediculess tag makes in no contest
The lfa is amazing and I'm sure the next gen lfa will also be amazing however the price is ridiculous in my opinion it should cost around the same as the Gtr maybe even a little more but 375k? And the new one a cool mill? That's 2 much 4 a Toyota
Little vacation, like a 3 night stay.. Like I mean it is practical compared to other super cars ( excluding the gtr )
Also If it doesn't matter about how fast a car goes around a track then WHY in the world would someone buy a performance vehicle!? You should be perfectly happy if the LFA was an electric car that tops out at 50mph if it really didn't matter.
SCCA club racer in a 458. Because the f1 driver is better he should win in the smart car right? Please continue kid your comments are always priceless :)
Haha pat say something about his Jetta and sit back and enjoy the show, I'm sure you will be able to get your mom AND him in one night after that :) And caleb its only about who's the better driver? Ok let me get an f1 driver in a smart car vs a
Haha dangit Caleb! That disappoints me! I'll win you over ;) If anyone can go buy a Viper, then go buy one.
Christo, but the tool is faster in the Viper than an LFA. BTW, since I know the price difference between the two, I would say the guy in the LFA is a tool.
Not to mention anyone in a Viper looks like a tool. 4/10 I got a little mad.
What does it being a Lexus have to do with its value? Everyone is saying, "that's way too much for a Lexus." That's terrible logic. It's an amazing car with amazing performance and amazing looks. I'd take one over a viper any day.
Yeah vipers are really nice all leather real comfortable seats like a vett its high quality but its simplistic to look more track ready also like a vett
Matt is pulling a Evan/fordfan trying to pass favored opinions/subjective material as fact. Silly boy
@matt Correction the 2010 acr is 12 seconds faster then the LFA, it's the nurg edition that did 7:14. And I assume you have never sat in an acr for a road trip or a LFA so you are speaking out of speculation and nothing more
Well Matt the ACR is road legal and it's still faster. The LFA isn't luxurious. It's exotic.
Yeah Matt 12mpgs is so practical. I bet the trunk is huge enough to put all your luggage in on a long trip. You can just stuff your kids behind the seat too.
That hurt sales and btw all three took money so either all american cars really are crap or im right.... And I know im not the only one who see it this way
An would b a joy to drive on long trips!!! So with the acr ur getting a car u can take to the track, that's it... With te lfa ur getting a car 2 seconds slower, that looks better, it more luxurious, can b used everyday and sounds spectacular
Something u r all forgetting about the acr and acr-x is their specifically track cars, the acr-x isn't even road legal, so that puts it in a TOTALLY different class... And the acr is about as luxurious as an out house... The lfa is beautiful in side
The reason gm needed a bail out is a bullshit seriotype of american cars
Yeah stupid people can't tell the difference. I can have an exclusive turd but it's still a turd.
Difference; most people aren't car people and don't know a gti from a golf or an lfa from a Saturn sky so forget that conclusion. Second difference a vette is 116k at most and that vette hands this 375k car it's ass
It's to be exclusive, main reason it's expensive. Qqing about the price lol. Look at ever corvette on the road. Most people can't even tell witch is a z06, or zr1.
GM was just bailed Out. So why even Talk? Let me Guess what would happen if GM wasn't Bailed Out. hmmm. Anyways you guys are fighting over dumb Shit
And no, I'd never take a gt500 over this car if money was not an issue but in reality money is always an issue so paying 375k for a car that is an icon more than a performer is akin to throwing money at a name. Pointless unless you just need to show
Magazine test result columns at the back of most car mags. The lfa barely runs 11.8's, 0-60 in 3.8, and 1.02g with 104ft 60-0. The damn 2011 gt500 had the same times minus .01g and 3-6 tenths at the strip. Way too expensive a car for what you get
It better perform better. I love showing videos to Lexus but swingers of the lfa being out done by gt3rs's, 458's, gtr's, zr1's, z06-z07 carbons, etc. Definitely going to be funny when a $60k gt500 has similar performance numbers as the lfa in
2012 Zr1 is also faster then the LFA, it's only the nurg editon that beat it
The stock LFA has a time of 7:24 and that was beaten by the 2009 acr with a time of 7:22. The LFA nurg editon did it in 7:14 which again is beaten by the 2010 acr with a time of 7:12 and then LFA was crushed by the X. So no the LFA was never ahead of
You guys are all jackasses pat is repin his ride while you morons bitch about a car you will never get to touch whos really being pathetic here?
Rofl welp I was wrong guess the X does beat 11 seconds it I'll be in the corner but still the LFA does a lap at 7:14 and that's fast as hell
Touch it around the track the ACR-X viper is a good example of how it can't touch it
Pat you do know that the viper is still almost 7 seconds slower that the LFA around the ring right and I bet the LFA. will always dominate a viper vette gtr what have you no matter how tuned the car is the LFA is perfect as is and no tuned car can
I will definitely do that John, while shifter my Viper ACR like a real man. Looks like technology can only get you so far. Ask the designers of the GTR.
I think Caleb has a crush on me. I do it to point out the flaws in a company and their decisions. Kinda like how people point out that GM took a bailout.
and @Patrick Schalk If you want a viper, go buy one and race around the 'ring a few seconds faster than the LFA. However if you want to have near identical performance in an extremely technologically advanced super car with a B.A. Yamaha v-10 and it to be exclusive, its prob worth the extra 220k youd have to spend
@Tucker Who would want a veyron? lmao id rather have 1.2 million candy bars
If your spending a million doll hairs on a car......for another 2 hundred thousand you could be sitting in a veyron....
It had better have significantly higher performance. Otherwise the $1 mil is ridiculous.
Its the exclusivity.. I wud never buy one cuz i will never afford one.. But someone will buy this and tell everyone that he hates money.. So stop hating and just stick with your jeeps..
Play nice guys Lexus could make the LFA slower and they would still sell them all because it's exlusive. Also the vipers price went up 30k so we will see if they sell! I am sure the new LFA will be epic I would laugh if the srt beat it again.
You said no one wants Jeeps when they obviously do. Are you high or delusional?
Patrick you are the one that started to compare. Are you high or delusional?
Oh yeah compare TWO brands to one. That makes so much sense. I'm gonna compare all of GM to Plymouth now.
Lookin at Patrick's comments he is complaint about every new car in the market he is just what we call a "troll"
Haha yeah that's why the Wranglers sales have never gone down huh? That's why Jeep is one of the highest selling vehicles ever huh? Who wears my pants now? Not you.
Lexus can make the next one even more expensive and still they will sell all of them. Can you say that for a viper?
Patrick your the one to talk. Having a photo of a jeep and the maker going bankrupt making pieces of crap no one wants. Only to reply on a foreign company to take over to show how things should be run. Who wears the pants for Chrysler?
Hahaha Matt, then it's an exclusive overrated car. Took em millions of dollars of R&D only to get spanked by the Viper! Lexus makes a bunch or boring turds.
I love the lfa. Would i ever buy one if i had the money? No id prefer the 458 but the lfa looks really nice
Patrick, shut up, lmao.... Lexus made the lfa so expensive bec it was exclusive, it wasn't going to b the fastest car int he world and they knew that... Bt even then, on the ring it beat cars twice it's price, and ive never heard u complaining about them, y? Cuz the Lexus is Japanese? And u call some of us ignorant...
All the Lexus fanboys will probably think so. Haha so Lexus is just gonna come out with another overhyped performance car only to get beat by bubbas Viper. Go spend billions of more dollars to fall short.
1million!!! I really can't see lexus making a car that is actually worth that...
Ha! I totally see it. Still think its cool but now I want to shoot it.
The only thing that could make a Lexus worth a million would be to make make it out of gold so it could be scrapped.
@Dan duzenski That is the LF-LC, which would be significantly cheaper than the current LFA if it made production. The million dollar car is just a rumor with no pics
Whether its ugly or not, it's still 100X better looking than any mass-produced Lexus of recent memory. Let's remember this is the "let's play it safe" company.
Lol, Alex is right about oil money not being smart. They just happen to sit on a lot of oil. Off topic a bit, but they are lucky the US economy is sending them a lot of money for their oil, so they can invest all that money back in the US stock market. We are robbing Peter to pay Paul when we should stop importing foreign oil. Sorry for the rant, but it pisses me off.
WOW, $1mil Toyota. The GTR can compete fairly well against this car for 1/10th the cost. I guess you are paying for the rarity. I would never spend that much for a car let alone a Toyota.
It's not for sale; it's a concept car. I wouldn't be surprised if this never goes on sale. It's a design research tool to see if people appreciate aspects so that they may be integrated into future production cars albeit with softer emphasis
This isn't the mil car. This is the LF-LC its cheaper then the current LFA
Needs more midship and 1,000hp with 4wheel steer and incredible looks before smart money will pay 1m for this. oil babies don't count as smart money. They'll buy anything to say they have it.
Does any body els see the supra or is just me? Everybodys waiting for the next gen supra but I think toyota thought this would be it
Cop that gives Harold a ticket in Harold and Kumar go to white castle. Now where's my 10 points. Haha.
Kumar, what is that like 5 "O's"? 10 points to the person who gets that reference.
Exactly; this car at $175k I can see being a great car, but at $375k? Hell no, that's an entire house in brand name premium. I'd definitely take a 599 gtb fiarrono over this for that $. One has a v12 with 660hp plus a Ferrari pedigree, the other..
Oh and I think the lfa looks good, performs great, but just not as good as its price tag would imply....
Yea I live cars like noble 600, corvette zr1, gumpert, and vipers(older model) who were all about a raw car that can kick a**, nothing else needed!
its beautiful, but performance and price, you could never buy one without feeling ripped off. thank God for vipers keeping real power and performance reasonable.
Yeah this is the picture the took from the rear of the Viper ACR. Looks good huh?
You buy supercars with your heart not your head. Yes there are cars that are faster but so what?
i love how ur taking crap about a car u will probally never be able to drive and probally stomps all over whatever u own
I was gona say that, who wants to be cought in toyota should have just taken it off though instead of covering it
People don't always buy cars based on performance, do yoü think lady gaga bought her R8 based on its 0-60
Looks has never been the issue with this car, apart from being ubber conservative for a super car. Problems are its mediocre performance and rediculous price tag. With Ferrari you know you're supporting a racing team. With this? $375k for what?
Totaly a supra from this angle, I mean add 10 years to the last gen and tell me it wouldnt looks something like this?
i believe there for the radiators.. there in the back of the car thats what the giant scoops on the sides of the car is for.. cause it was all about perfect balance... and yes for 375k wouldent buy one but would love to have one that exhaust is incredible and the interior amazing, price is the only problem
If you like it great for you but it doesn't do much for me. I fired up Forza and looked one over again to see if I was too brash but it's just not my deal. More power to you guys though if it's yours.
Lambo stirs passion at every angle; this is too conservative for the money. It's like a body kit on a brz. Just too mainstream line wise. At $175k I'd love this car but at 375 it screams expensive for no real reason but badge.
Amen garrett If all you care about is the performance compared to the price then go pick up a GTR, cheap, fast, there ya go. I don't see how you guys can say this is boxy and ugly, yet turn aroud and praise a lamborghini. This car is edgy.
You pay for pretty good performance but mostly look sound how exclusive it is etc, it's performance is good but if performance based is what you're goin for I'd op for a GT3 or italia, f12, etc, I can agree with that
Of cash to play around with. All said though this car doesn't have the passion inducing spirit of a Lamborghini lp720 or 560-2 balboni, 430 challenge stradale, etc. It's a great car but it's a bit bland and too conservative for a $375k car
Lot of my dream cars in the game, I bought it for the v10 and interior. I drove about 25 miles in it and havent touched it sense though. Fun car but not at 375k. That whole analogy was to put it in perspective against the real world concept of lots
My collection of cars. If I didn't make money easy in that game because of circuit and drifting online ($80mil currently) I'd never have bought one. I had over 150 cars before I bought the lfa because it was too expensive to justify. Once I had a ..
Yes but the level of performance and engineering doesn't exceed other vehicles that are half the price. Assuming a vast bank account like a Forza 4 game, sure. I have 1 of these as well as 350 other cars, but I only have it to complete...
Yeah but if you had the money it might be, I would garuntee alot of the people that buy this car own many cars of equal or possibly more value, 375,000$ is alot of money too most people but to others is nothing, prime example Is leno's collection
Anyways I came off brash so forget I said anything but seriously this car isn't worth the $$$
Scott, if I wanted to mortgage my paid off shop, I could buy 7-8 of these. Please sit down now. I see no value in this when many other cars do the exact same thing, look better, and have better ergonomics for literally 1/2-1/3 the $.
So square and boxy too, where's the sexy supercar ass that we all crave? This is like a decent chick from the front that has no curves and a flat ass. Hot to look at face to face but the passion leaves you when she starts to show you other angles
Honestly this doesn't scream $375k, I've seen veilside body kits with less pointless mesh. You need that huge of mesh to channel air? Poor design aesthetic for an expensive car
This car looks like a Hot Wheels from my nightmares! What an angry ride, I love the LFA...
I know the gap in the hood is an intake but I don't like it. Makes the car look cheap, like the hood doesn't fit that well.
This is dumb to have a Lexus cost this much. Japanese cars are not meant to be exclusive or special.
I would take this over your friends civic any day! But for 375 k I would prolly build my own S2k up to smoke this at the track, build a FFR cobra for a weekend convertible and finally a 2010 viper as my dd
the car is really slow though I mean a gtr that costs 3 times less can beat it without even trying...my friend beat one in the highway with a freaking 2000 Honda civic si running 500hp turbo that's sad
I categorize this as a Aesthetic car, like Aston Martins and Morgans. I never really think about performance like i would with Lambo, Ferarri, and Lotus.
When they say '$375,000', what currency is it in? Because it costs te same as an aventador ($1.5 mil) here in singapore
Yeah or like a Buggati with a terrible interior going for 1.8 mil! They spent MILLIONS developing this car.
im sorry but a 1million dollar lexus is like a 250,000$ lada, just not happening
I don't get what you people say its over priced. They lose money on every sale on these things, it's all the technology that's in it that makes it expensive, and engineering. It shows what Toyota can really do
Unless it has 1000+hp it's not worth the money
Doesn't the viper hold the record at the ring?
it already can....
I wonder if they r going after the 918 spyder? Maybe the LFA II will be a hybrid too? Good luck with that Lexus. Hahaha
Apparently 500 people already have .
Ha right its a toyota who in their right mind would spend that on a toyota?
A million bucks! The lfa is ridiculously overpriced as it is
I doubt they will compete. As someone said, the awd would help but after that the LFA would reign over the NSX.
Will the nsx compete with the lfa????
Just about all of you don't have to worry about it. Most of you including me will not even get a chance to bid for one so why complain about something that hasn't come out. Leave the article to the Lexus enthusiasts to read and complain.
No. No it won't. The LFA will still dominate it. It may beat it to 60 because of the AWD, but the Lexus would take off from it.
lexus LFA 2 will get dominated by the NSX coming out
toyota/lexus has to be the odd ball
