Can't wait! However, it was only a matter of time until some numbnut would post something like this:

I wont deny it's a nice car, but a 2012 Nissan GT-R would be a step up over this thing for a lot less $$.
GT-R fanboys are so predictable, lol!

So they are giving a production LFA to these guys?? Grudge matches?? Wow!

I hope there are luscious praises for LFA and great numbers to back them up so that the image can get a much-needed boost.

That definitely a step in the right direction. Only if now Lexus could release the video of the infineon driving experience.

Well it's a complete guess and has no basis in any fact or evidence whatsoever, but I have been on Lexus' case about getting their production model out there for all the magazines.

I mentioned that to Paul Rohovsky at Infineon as well. I guess he must have changed his mind.
You should watch IL blog for potential misinfo and correct them. After all, you have had your LFA a lot longer than a week now
Someone overthere said Lexus has indirectly confirm 7:22 ring time

I really hope the videos are somewhat similar in their footage quality as this video:
