From my understanding he simply does not like Ferraris or the image of them. He really likes McLaren b/c its a brand and car you really have to "know" about.

I think the LFA is like that. Either you know about it or you don't. Thus I think he has interest.

I read an interview with Jay Leno a long while back where he said that he walked into a Ferrari dealership and they treated him like crap. He doesn't like their sales tactics - i.e. need to buy used ferrari first, etc. I doubt if he will like Lexus' screen and lease deal any better.

I think he has a long list of cars he's more interested in (just because of his prior ownership and affinity for these brands) - mp4-12c, sls amg, 918 if it gets built and the granddaddy of them all - an F1 successor. All of these will cost big bucks to buy and maintain so even a rich guy like him will prioritize where his money goes.

who really knows though? just wait and see.
