Watch the in detail look of the LFA and you will see where the most of our styling came from. More than just the gauge cluster and stripping the foglights to use as air induction.

BMW's M-Sport does not have all the tacky showy exterior badges. M3's have functional fender vents with 'm3 badge on them'

I'm not trying to say Lexus and BMW should design their cars with similar exterior characteristics.

But for my taste, it's a little too much, especially with no functionality of the badge.

Everything else about the Fsport is awesome though... especially these seats
