The LFA, when braking from 200 mph to a full stop is designed to be confident, predictable, and effective.

Give me a break...that is like saying towing and payload do not matter in the pickup class.....
As far as I am concerned, Performance numbers is EVERYTHING in the supercar/exotic class.......weight, 1/4 mile, 0-60, skidpads mean EVERYTHING.....The early numbers of the LFA are simply average compared to others in the class right now.
GT-R release is more significant that the LFA release.

Incredible really, I think that Club Lexus should make you their official troll...

I got a question, does the LFA have flaps above the taillights? I've seen the Matte Black and one of the white ones having something that looks like little flaps. I can't seem to get a picture or something. Any ideas?

The GT-R amd R8 is where the Lexus LFA will always be compared to IMO. Performance wise the LFA is right there in between the GT-R and R8, but cost wise it is 3-4 times the price. I think one has to not judge the car by price but instead look at it performance. Time will tell how good the LFA is on the skidpad but I believe the GT-R will still be it.
When you look at the Ferrari 599 (Road and Track)...3.2 seconds 0-60mph with the use of launch control....why doesn't the LFA have this?...the only car I know of from a major manufacturer that comes close to this is the GT-R
For $375k I can't go faster than a Ferrari or even a Nissan for that matter?.....I still think the LFA is cool and I do like it

with a market of only 500, and a car so complex and already so capable, i expect VERY LITTLE.
thanks a lot, they're great.

I honestly have to say. It's amusing reading peoples posts on autoblog and youtube. I love seeing zombies loving their Deutsch and Italia sport cars. I just cant wait to see Top Gear and who ever else to head to head comparisons to shut these idiots up once and for all!
As much as I want to talk **** back to them. There is no use. They are stubborn. Thats what makes us Lexus fanboys / owners different. We let people talk **** but we know what we have is better in many different ways then one

all - we've read quite enough about comparisons to the GT-R. it's certainly an excellent vehicle, but not relevant to this thread. please take GT-R/LFA comparisons elsewhere.

LFA In Florida speedway!!!
The exhaust note is addicting and enticing, wow simply wow, the downshift blip is great and the upshifting and downshifting is fast.
