9000rpm redline
top speed 202mph
0-60 in 3.2 seconds ..... you get all that starting at only $375,000

I don't think it sounds like that in real life.

Sweet car.. I guess you can get something much faster for the money but this is the first for Lexus and it will be a limited production car.. (status statement?) If i remember correctly, Lexus doesnt see a profit from the car.. its a "i can do it" kind of thing.

It is sweet! Great promo.

But for that money you can really make a limited production, like 1.

I read that the LFa is already sold out! It has some great engineering and very trick parts but for that kind of money there are other cars I would much rather have.

Agreed. Amazing car but too much money. Sad to hear Lexus won't make a penny on them, but at the same time they're not losing money either, so they basically got paid even money to learn a lot about engineering which isn't so bad. Not a real fan of those air scoops by the windows either. Seems like the car would have much better lines without those, but they certainly are distinctive. I think the guys on Top Gear did a great job of reviewing the car.

a little to close to the styling of a nissan gtr for me.

For $375k, just give me a Lamborghini Murciélago.

Agreed ZR1 for the win, no doubt about it in my mind.

That Lexus looks cool, but reminds me of a GTR front end on a copied Audi R8 rear design.
Just doesn't look like $375,000 to me......

is it just me or is anyone else seeing a mix of R8, Ferrari and GT-R?

I guess I'm not the only one.

I'm confused on how that car has carbon fiber this and that, lightweight materials everywhere, yet still weighs some 3400lbs. But, that does seem to be the norm for supercars I guess.

Beautiful piece of machinery,much better looking than GTR, but waay overpriced
