At an estimated 3100#, with a 600HP/440lb-ft 3.8l twin turbo it's lighter and likely faster for about 60% of an LF-A, and a stronger race pedigree than Toyota. Neither car is what I call gorgeous, especially the LF-A.
it will never sound as good as the lfa and it looks even more hideous based on the pics floating around the net. sorry, no

i think as long as lexus fix the front end by the production date 2011. this car is worth 375k. It sounds better than the 458 italia and about anything else there IMO. the sound is not super loud, not small, just perfect when you get on it. but at low rev, it sound very civil.
