LF-A = SC-F??
*Can anyone post the supposed rendering for the future SC? OMG! I fell in love with that car!*

I don't think that I am entirely incorrect but didn't a few old school muscle cars during the 50's and 60's have like 3 speed autos that kicked butt?
Even if it is an automatic won't gearing play a major impact? Sure being able to control your RPMS is great but the best thing about having an automatic is being consistent. Sure people may complain about skill.... and things of this nature but the saying still holds true when it comes to racing..

NovaIS350 are implying that the LF-A is actually the upcoming SC? I don't think so, I feel that the LF-A will be a different car from the SC. Maybe Lexus will continue the SC and also make it into a "F" car.

IMO, M Power of BMW is a much, much better sport division of any car manufacturer. True that AMG does create amazinly fast cars, but their handling department has much to be desired compared to M Power. The overall performance balance of the car and how well the driver is able to integrate himself/herself to use the car like an extentsion of the body... is what I think performance divisions should focus on, and I truly hope that "F" can live up to these expectations.

IS_Mine i thought it would be cool to see Lexus give every car some type of a F job. The ES appeal to alot of young people that I know and on the web. Lexus could broaden the appeal of the ES to more buyers. AMG tunes S-class, so the LS deserves the same attention too.

I'm assuming that has been the plan. Offering a performance model to each model line up would be competing with the likes of M, AMG, V, and S models
