    Cool Lexus LF-A

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fTfRh0_RQ4[/ame]

    4.8-liter 72-degree V10 putting out 560 hp at 8,700 RPM (that's 116.5 hp/liter) and 354 lb.-ft. of torque at 6,800 RPM
    Redline: 9,000 RPM
    Titanium valves, connecting rods, forged aluminum pistons, dry sump lubrication and a titanium exhaust manifold
    Six-speed sequential gearbox
    Torsen limited slip differential
    3,263 pounds with a 48/52 front-to-rear weight distribution
    Power-to-weight ratio of 5.8 pounds/hp
    65 percent of the body is carbon fiber
    20-inch BBS wheels wrapped in 265/35 ZR20 Bridgestone tires in front and 305/30 ZR20 in the rear.
    0-62 MPH (100 km/h) in 3.7 seconds
    Top speed of 201.94 MPH
    Production limited to 500 units



    Easy response: Copy, paste, post!

    Would rather drive my LS1 over it
    ugly
    slow
    *insert ZR1 stats*
    could build faster car with less than 20k
    too expensive
    Import? don't care
    not enough trunk space

    IDK why, I thought of GT-R, 350z Roof line and a Audi R8, with a bit of Ferrari when I saw that.

    I thought of a cross between an R8 and at GTR too.

    I also thought it looked kind of like a cat from the front.

    People who buy cars in this price range, on average:
    -Own 3-4 homes
    -Own about 8 vehicles
    -have a net worth of about 30 million USD

    Expensive, but I'm sure the profit margin on that car probably isn't all that high with limited production and extensive carbon fiber bodywork

    Well yea, but I think it's stupid to buy that much of a car. Buy a foreclosed house, remodel it sell it. Make a profit, or rent it out and have a steady flow of cash.

    Yeah they never really are, it mainly just a brand wanting an iconic uber-car to bring publicity to their normal line imo.

    What I was getting at was that people who buy those cars make enough money elsewhere and already live comfortably enough to spend their money on luxury items like this car since it's chump change to them rather than a life-changing amount to you and I.

    Your not thinking like a millionaire. That's thinking like someone who wants to be a millionaire.

    If you've got that kind of cash, your rarely thinking about price. Its all about 1upping your neightbor.

    I like the idea of investing and building cheaper cars faster... I think if I was to be a self made millionaire, time for the next goal, self made billionaire.
