There's already a long thread on this and in regards to price all 500 that are being made are already sold.....so you can't get one either way.

not trying to disrespect, but all i can say is lfa isn't a car for you, period. the car is worth whatever it is to people who buy them. zr1 is faster so what. zr1 is faster than a lot of ferrari and lamborghini among others so those cars are worthless as well? i don't think it works that way

to me is the lfa expensive? yes. is it worth the money? yes. would i get one if i have enough money to get exotics as toys? yes, but not as my first one

just get whatever you can afford and something that can please you

No matter how good the corvettes look from the outside or how fast they go. Their interior is dull and boring, the material they use on their interior is just uninteresting and the design is bad. while the interior of the LF-A is far more appealing compared to other super cars, i believe it's exterior look beats the corvette also. I have seen a lot of super car's interior are very unattractive. LF-A definitely has one of the most attractive interior.

I think you should get a honda civic and turbo it to beat the zr1 cause it's gonna cost you alot less.

My understanding, LFA is not available to purchase, 2 year lease only, no? All about your monthly payment plans baby !!! hahahaha... I know that $375 grand and up sound very scary but HEY.. if you got the money, why not !!

What are we talking about... it's all SOLD anyways....!! hahahaha...

JAY

IMO, it is rediculous.... but then when I saw $ down and $ monthly payment and plans, not as bad as $375grand sound !! GL !!

Ha ha QFT. That's what I was gonna say.

As an F owner, you should understand that it's so much more than just numbers and the stat sheet, so this is a bit surprising. The same argument could be made for your IS-F. Why not get the 2011 Mustang GT instead?

well 2 yr "lease", 300k, and then another 90k or so to buy it out after 2 yrs. it's just a way to force you to buy

and btw, nop, NOT all lfa sold yet. still available here in the US

Completely wrong...But congrats ZR1, very nice car.

^^^ OMG, you changed your mind so fast! I guess you're not good at researching, LFA information has been around for a long time.
