New Lexus Supercar

[joelstrick]

How cool does this thing look

Almost complete Lexus LF-A Supercar seen here at the ring testing

[eMsta]

dang not bad - any idea on the specs?

[joelstrick]

5L V10 is the rumour

[inark]

looks the goods...

so will they be releasing a Toyota version? IE. that looks a lot like the next Supra should and they always bring out the Toyota versions which are normally better

[eMsta]

5L V10 is the rumour

isnt it strange how in a world of high petrol prices and depleted oil resouces, car manufacturers are still building big engines (i.e 6ltr v8s, 5ltr v10s and v12s etc)?

but i suppose the supercar category is not going to be sufficient with a 1.8 ltr 4 cyl with 8 turbos or something....

[ziad]

it will only have 206kw ;-)

[eMsta]

it will only have 206kw ;-)

correct me if im wrong, but isnt the "gentleman's agreement" no longer in play now in japan (i.e the 206 kw limit) ? thats why the gtr is rumored to have in excess of 330kw

[ctjet]

from the side it looks like a 300

[Modena]

Its meant to compete with Ferrari F430... and the likes...

Ferrari is still a F E R R A R I...

[ctjet]

what the hell does that have to do with this?

Looks hot, and the 206kw is out the window - was a loooong time ago

it was meant to be a sarcastic joke

[eMsta]

it was meant to be a sarcastic joke

damn man...should have warned me about that

[West]

Looks HOT it its the new SUPRA,

Still if it doesn't have the WORLD NUMBER ONE 4WD system like the GTR, its still a DYNO QUEEN at the end of the day .

these spy shots have been floating around for a while, IMO the car looks quite good

If u can afford a super car i think petrol will be least of your worries

Was pretty sure lexus were gona go with a v8 or v10 hybrid? simliar to the 450gh? A mate that used to work in development at toyota is pretty sure its a hybrid!

How many ferraris have you driven..... the amount of times i got out with a sore back nearly outwieghs the panty wetting effects.. i bet the lexus will do everything better except have the badge prestige.

i love my ferraris but i know plenty of owners who own a badge in the garage as they cant stand driving them much.... bastards wont let me drive em much either... something about seeing me drive

looks like someone smashed a 350z with a lambo murcielago

Nice looking ride!

A quick glimpse at the ics says Supra, Ferarri & Aston Martin styling.
