Last week while getting my car serviced, I walked over to the showroom....took a chair and just sat there gazing at every line, angle, shape and inch of the LFA in the showroom.
I came to realize just how great the car looks. I already had a healthy respect for it's performance and interior but I never looked at the exterior with this much detail. It looks amazing. Although I wish that Lexus would have made more and offered them at half the price, I started to understand more why the car is special enough to warrant its lofty price tag.
With the total package of the LFA considered, I can't understand the thinking the value will tank. WHy would that happen? It's one of a kind.

because everything is about supply and demand. when supply > demand, it's hard for price to hold

Notice I said in the short term. This car will be a postmortem hit in my opinion. A fringe group of enthusiasts already realize this. Limited production doesn't always mean it's going to hold its value. Many factors go into it including brand recognition, heritage, pedigree, etc. No matter how great a package the car is, the general automotive public will never consider one at the price its selling for.
That is because it probably had no real owner. Someone was joyriding in the car for a little while. It only has 385 miles on it, which means it just was broken in on the day it was put on sale.
I love the LFA. I have grown to love its styling, power, all of the insane development work, and now understand why they charge so much for it. This thing was developed over about three times what they would spend on any other sports car
Any guesses? You thinks it's 1/3, 1/2 or more than half?
anyone guesses is probably just as wild as anyone else, and i think it can easily get into another unnecessary debate of how the car is selling. the fact that lexus is holding the information so tight and with the supposedly fixed regional allocation makes it even harder and more confusing to figure out details from reading between the lines
