I can't wait either. This is going to be exciting. I really dont give a crap about the lap time or the wet track. I am in love with this car! too bad it's going to be another few more decades for me to afford one.
I could honestly say no car in the automotive history that I know excite me as much as the LFA does. Would u just listen to that sound?

Yeah what a huge bummer. After learning that the Stig did only a wet run I was at least looking forward to watching what Clarkson has to say about the LFA. Now it's just going to suck. Is this the first ever supercar that's NOT reviewed by Clarkson in Top Gear (after Clarkson joined, of course)?

I think Clarkson ha s a deal with the show where he gets to pick the best cars. For the really great cars its Clarkson >> Hammond> May

Most of us will never get the chance to drive the LFA (although Top Gear's Stig took it around the Dunsfold test track yesterday), but after Lexus uploaded a few sound clips to their microsite (http://www.lexus-lfa.com/) we felt compelled to bring them all together into a single 75 second symphony.
We think that it sounds a lot like a Carrera GT, and whatever you think of the LFA, you surely can't deny that it sounds pretty special...
