Worthy of SuperCar status?

The Acura NSX was a worthy effort at the Japanese supercar. The Nissan R35 GT-R is among the best of the current crop of the world's supercars (and SucH a deal for only $100,000). Now after 6 years of development work, Lexus has unleashed its own interpretation of the "supercar".

The traditionalists that swoon over Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Pagani, Mclaren will likely scoff. An automotive journalist from Holland with 40 years of test driving under his belt said, simply put, this is the best car he has EVER driven. Period. I could be converted, the asking price is $375,000. One can still dream, right?

that car is sexy I'd say its worthy if it keeps up and handles with other super cars. Plus I'm sure it still has a yota motor in it and we cant forget that the supra was among the top 3 jap supercars just about 1and a half decades ago

yessirreee ... thats a great point ... The specifications of the new rear-drive Lexus supercar are impressive enough: a 4.8-liter V10 with 560 ps (552 bhp), 354 lb-ft torque, a zingy 9,000 rpm redline, six-speed sequential gearbox, 0-62 mph in 3.7 seconds, and a top speed of 202 mph. Sick, just totally sick ... but then I am an adrenaline junkie .... hahahaha!

damn nice but for the money nope, i'd rather have a porshe 911, a new vet and pimped out caddy, i do agree on one thing.. damn sexy

So would you take this lexus or a gtr?? I know id take the gtr even with the 275 thou price diffrence.

in a heartbeat ... yea ... the GT-R is really killer. I wanna see someone do a comparison of the LF-A and Mclaren MP4-12C Ferrari 458 Italia and 2010 Porsche Turbo. And we could throw in a Lambo Gallardo Valentino Balboni LP550-2 and a Spec-V GT-R if available? QUOTE=VansStoner1748;3280609]So would you take this lexus or a gtr??
