LFA on Top Gear

I know there was a lot of hype over this on here for a bit, but I couldn't seem to find the thread, so here's a new one.

They do put a lot of weight on the wet track in the Stig lap, yet it was still slower than the VIII FQ400, which was faster on an equally wet track. So you'll have to color me somewhat unimpressed.

Still looks and sounds good, though.

Re: LFA on Top Gear

You are comparing a 556hp RWD car to a 400hp AWD car. I bet if you had a 556hp AWD car it would be slower in the wet then the 400hp car.. Let alone a RWD car with more power.

Regardless of what people think, Toyota made 500 of these things, and all 500 are sold/leased.. That's all that really matters.

Re: LFA on Top Gear

Awesome car, but it's price is extraordinary. Comparing it to an Evo is ridiculous.

AGREED!! That shit is sick.

Does this have a N/A v10? If so, I could see a couple turbos doing work on that v10, with how it revs, and how quick it does, that would be one hell of a ride. I think it's a cool ass car, but the pricetag is nuts. What's more nuts, is that they're not making any money by charging that much.
