no i can't. what am I? an accountant?
I said i'm laughing at the haters, did I ever say anything about the price tag?

Have you thought about how expensive a car is to put in production, give it somewhat of a warranty for an insanely low production car (500 right?), and give it an exclusive, chassis, engine, suspension, etc?

I'm sick and tired of the idiots complaining how "expensive" it is. It's still a car with what state of the art technology can offer, and it's for 350k.

I may own a Lexus but I'm not defending the LFA, at all. I think it's not the best looking car out there. Different people have different wants. The higher the cost gets, the more money people are willing to spend to have that very small part of the pie.

Look at the details that went into it. Maybe you'll appreciate it a bit more then.

A very good point. But I don't have a single issue with the price; with only 500 units world wide they will sell that without a doubt.

But this car is too unique and radical, the only technology that will trickle down or atleast influence other Lexus is what exactly? It is a pointless exercise that has missed the mark by being:
A) A very polarizing design (read in the running for ugliest car since SC430 and Chevy HHR introduced) and
B) Is not groundbreaking at all.

They do not have a foot in the door for continuation with a market for $100,000+ cars. It all seems to be an exercise in futility. As have the vast majority of vehicles in their line-up as of late (Looking at you IS-F and IS-C).

It sounds good, but not great. And that is the nicest thing I have to say about it.

Confirmed by two people that it bolts right on.

I cannot stress to you enough to stay away from the Stratus/Cirrus/Breeze.

Entry cost may only be $600 but you'll be well past that every year to keep the electrical system and transmission worthwhile.

Just terrible cars.

Other than that, old Camaros can be fun.

Hmm, okay, my source of info is mistaken.


One of the older gentlemen that was at Cars & Jets knows the car too, forget who I was talking to though.

I'm not sure, perhaps he no longer does... But I saw it with my own two eyes!

I had dated a girl from Muncie two years back. Saw it twice when I was visiting her.

Quick backstory of the owner, he got the laws passed to allowed the XJ220 among other vehicles to be imported and road legal in the states.

One of those XJ220 resides in a garage next to a Veyron.

Got some bad news.

The F40 only has 1,100 miles on it. And it sold for $600,000.

Dan, if you're still serious though check out http://www.buxtonmotorsports.com/locating.php

He'll find you anything you want.
