Wow, that's a beauty. I can see the alternator and ac compressor and they will use EPS( Elictronic Power Steering) just like they used on the GS430, IS350 and RX400h.

If that thing is putting out "more than 500hp" with "less than 5.0L in displacement", you'd better bet it is!!! (though the LF-A as a car is more of an M6 fighter)

MHMMM...cant wait to see the final specs for this car. I have a strong feeling that this engine will be the most advanced engine Toyota has ever made. Straight up race car engine. AWSOME.

A work of art... reminds me of a 1UZ with two more cylinders.

I'll bet it sounds cool- cammy V10s sound sophisticated. Viper (pushrod) V10s sound like UPS trucks.
