Really?? That article (including the new Top Gear episode of the LFA that I took the quote for my signature from it) sounds like mocking to you??? That is some great stuff you must be taking. 
Top Gear Episode 2 Season 19
"If I were given a choice of picking one car out of all the cars that have ever existed, I would pick a dark blue LFA over any other. That is how much I love this car."

No, you can just take a very positive comment and simply twist into some crazy non-existent sarcastic rhetoric using some imagination.
Only a silly argument like that would trascend a mind who cannot see the rational explanation behind a claim and figure out whether it is a sarcastic comment or it is a genuinely serious praise.
Sorry, I am not that stupid since I would have to be very logically and rationally stupid (or a biased hater) to make the leap in order to interpret these comments as "sarcastic".
"Then you fire the engine up. Snick it into first, move off and... whoa! The noise beggars belief. This is not a car that shouts, growls or barks. It howls. Up there, on the moors, it sounded otherworldly. Like a werewolf that puts its foot in a gin tap."
"I have to say I absolutely love it. It is an intelligent car built by intelligent people. In some ways it is raw and visceral: In others it is a lesson in common sense. Engine at the front, two seats in the middle and a boot you can use. Despite all of this, there is a sense that you are in a real, full-on race car."
"The word immediate was invented for the throttle response of this car....and the steering, and the gearbox and just about everything else"
"The LFA inspires tremendous confidence. Then up ahead, Gouge marks in the tarmac show clearly over the years, many a sump have clattered into the road and you brace for impact that never comes. The LFA maybe lower than a worm's navel, but so successful is the suspension, it never bottoms out".
p.s. Welcome to 2013, he sold the Ford GT shortly after he bought way back in July, 2005. He never kept it.

Yes! If you actually watch the show and pay attention to the underlying message of what they are saying! The show is full of sarcastic humor! Besides, how many times has he said "it's the best car IN THE WORLD!" Ha,ha! Besides, he owns a Ford GT.
I love the car, but it is not without its faults! Do t be mad, be glad! Ha!
