Lexus LF-A Roadster

I don’t even know what the specs of this machine are, all I know is that I want to be behind the wheel. It supposed to be the most incredible machine developed by a Japanese Automaker yet, and they have been making some interestingly powerful cars. I do hope Lexus does take this machine in production, and if the specs are high enough they can put whatever price tag they want on it and it will sell.

    Yup so far they are planning to launch this car next year, I went to the lexus delership here in Florida to “place an order”, but the est. price was way higher than I what expected (for a Lexus), from what I hear it should be competing with high end super cars like the Pagani Zonda probably faster since it beat the Zonda’s time at the Nurnberg ;)

    Unfortunately for you buddy you have facts Wrong :D

    The Lexus LF-A is in a different class than the Nissan GT-R, Just like Toyota and Lexus have always been in a different class from the Nissan/Infinity’s :D

    The LF-A is “King of the Ring” on the Nürburgring.. It has lap times faster than the Porsche 911 GT2, Carrera GT, Pagani Zonda, Nissan GT-R AND Nissan GT-R V-Spec! ;)

    Not to mention Toyota has a Formula 1 team unlike the developers of the GT-R, meaning when they make a sports car they mean business :)

    1- IS-F MAN, don’t be very racist about cars, every car got its class, you say Lexus better than Infiniti ? did you check JD power consumer report this year 2008? Infiniti is rank 2, Lexus rank 3 :

    Yup buddy, thats what called “Quality”.

    2- About the lap time

    7:24 Lexus LF-A
    7:25 Nissan GT-R V-Spec
    7:29 Nissan GT-R

    When I read about the Lexus LF-A lap time, all sites mentioned that its unofficial and thats not the production car, are you sure that the production car can get the same lap time ? because concept cars are alot different than production, because of the rules/weight etc. Dont forget that there is a third GTR named GTR EVO, which is stronger than the GTR and GTR V-Spec and much lighter, The GTR can get from 0 to 100 3.2 seconds and some Magazines test it out, got 3.1 seconds [I think Edmund's] and 3.0 seconds , How much can the Lexus Get ? Can the Lexus handle like the GTR does ? don’t forget that the GTR is 4wheel AWD and the rear tires move too, specially on hard turns. GTR can be driven on snow/mud/sand, Anywhere, Anytime, Anyone.

    3- Who said that Nissan Doesn’t have a formula team?, Check pictures :

    I am sorry but we all know that Nissan engines are one of the best engines in the world, I can get

    you one car from infiniti which can beat all the cars from Lexus.

    Infiniti G35 > Lexus LS460
    Infiniti G35 > Lexus GS300
    Infiniti G35 > Lexus GS430
    Infiniti G35 > Lexus ES350
    Infiniti G35 > Lexus IS300
    Infiniti G35 > Lexus IS350
    Infiniti G35 > Lexus LX570

    Get me a car with 3.8 Liter 6 cylinder engine that can get from 0 to 100 in less than 3.2 seconds !

    and thats not even the final version, Its just the normal GTR not the V-spec or EVO. I am a

    Nissan/Infiniti lover and I really respect and love Lexus cars, specially the LS460, What an

    amazing car which shocked the S-Class and the 7-Series, fel nhaya, its just cars, who cares =P
