this experience was very very very rare indeed. The guys who got a ride are very lucky imho.

Honestly, I'm just glad to know someone who rode shotgun in the LFA on a track with a professional driver. I know you have some solid street and track driving skills....and I know you are not just a car enthusiast but a pure "driving" enthusiast just like many of us, so of course I hung on your every word. I'm so glad you had the experience....and that you could share it with us. Like you, I have been in a few exotics, but it's sooooo not the same being in an exotic, on a track, WITH A PROFESSIONAL DRIVER.

Like you, I'm also seriously considering an ISF. The saleslady at the dealer calls me every month trying to entice me with some new sales deal. We'll see. Mid-spring I will make the decision. Everytime I drive it though, I wish I could use that engine with a 6-speed manual. I'm always hoping Lexus will honor my wish in the future. Otherwise, I'll just keep saving for the M3.

But unlike you, I am not engaged yet. But I am proud of you, of all people, for taking that leap of faith.
Thanks Kevin, I appreciate it.

I wanted to bump this b/c I KNEW the potential of this car. The "RING" edition has possibly ran a 7:14.

I knew the LFA was a track monster and tech masterpiece. Too many people caught up in 0-60 times and the price...

I salute you Lexus/Toyota! The LFA is the greatest car out of Asia!
