LF-A for sure! The LF-A is its own and no little brother isx50. Plus it looks nice....but I hope you have $150K.

With one nearly triple the cost, the dream would be the LF-A, but most likely I'm just saving it for an ariel atom/corvette/motorcycle/something cheaper than an Aston Martin..

I'm shooting for the GT-R in about 2 to 3 years. I've thought about the new IS-F, M3, CTS-V and C63 as well but I can't pass on the GT-R when it delivers Porsche GT2 performance (the new GT2 > than the GT-R but priced at $200k) on a base Carrera's price.

I thought about theGT-R before,but its not for me. The GT-R has less power than the LF-A, smaller engine (V6) with 480hp only .plus it looks to me like the new Chevrolet Camaro Concept from behind. Basiclly, its more of a sport,racing car to me than a sport luxury car.
