Listen Up: Lexus LFA vs McLaren 12C on a Closed Mountain Road

By -

McLaren’s 12C is a fantastic car, and the British company’s breakneck product schedule means we’ll be seeing better and better flavors every year. But does it produce the aural symphony of the LFA? No way. 

Something makes me think that the 4C will need more than oil changes, brakes and tires before it turns 40k on the clock. That’s all that’s been done the LFA media cars over their lifetimes, and they’re still running like tops. Regardless though, these are both cool cars, and getting to watch them scream down a closed mountain road is a treat. Turn up the speakers and enjoy!
Head to the Forum to see what folks are saying about the pair of thoroughbreds running free! >>
