The car is sick. I love how that engine sounds. I keep seeing and hearing people call it the new supra. It's really not. The Toyota FT-HS hybrid is supposedly the "new" supra. Also look out for the FT-86. Toyota and Subaru are bringing back a small 2seater NA rwd car like the ae86 corolla.

The real superstar in the Lexus LFA is the powerplant, which consists of a high-revving, mid-mounted, 552 horsepower, 4.8-liter V10 engine mated to a six-speed paddle-shifted transmission, giving the LFA a top speed of 202 mph. Power will be routed strictly to the rear wheels, and carbon-ceramic brakes ensure the car’s ability to stop on a dime.
The interior seats two, and is finished with carbon fiber accents, a futuristic floating center console, and some of the coolest gauges this side of Aston Martin.
Lexus is taking orders for the LFA beginning today, with a price tag of around $350,000 - $375,000, depending on options. A fairly steep price, but considering its rarity, could instantly turn into a collector car.
At that price i dont that there will be many on the road down here.i dont see any ballers on this forum....lol

Very informative information Richard! Nice copy and paste!!
Toyota wants to enter the supercar world. They make formula 1 vehicles so they want to make it into a road car like Ferrari does. Too bad they don't use v10s in formula 1 anymore. So it's price competitive to a Ferrari and not a car like the gtr. I'm sure they will all be sold though.
Someone asked previously if the wheels are interchangeable with any other Lexus. The answer is NO. The LFA does not have a conventional wheel hub with studs. In fact the wheels will be attached with 5, 50mm hex head type bolts. Offset is not determined, but will probably be the usual Lexus +42 or +45.

I'm pretty sure its going to be as close as its going to get. I remember a while ago they called it MKV in some article I will have to look that up.
