Default HSV-10 vs Lexus LFA

Which one would you take considering Honda actually made a production ready car?

Say you had won ~400,000 cash.
Which would you pick and why?

Knowing Honda MSRP would be shy of the 100,000 mark or in that arena. At most 150,000

For meit would still be the LF-A. You should use voting buttons though for this one.

Says who that the HSV would cost 200k less than the LFA?

In any case, the LFA. 997 is tempting, but seeing as everyone under the sun has one, (and a GT2 or GT3 would be a better choice) and it came with the X6 (most pointless vehicle on earth) and the ZR1 (Prefer a Viper ACR) you get no dice. lol.

LFA all the way.

Exactly. One is a track-only race car and one is a production sports car. Honda would have to make several changes to the driveline and drivetrain before such a car could become street legal, so until then (never) the LFA wins by default.

Might as well add the TF109 option to the list.

As much as I'm a fan of the HSV-10 this poll is meaningless until Honda shows us the car in street-legal, production-ready trim.

A 300-hp 2004 Acura NSX was $90k.

What makes you think a 500+hp 2011 Honda would be only $10k more?


This thread is misleading, biased, and incendiary.
