"out of thier (Toyota) F1 car."
I hope that is some type of a joke. Really out of the F1 car, this car would be producing 750hp and revving way past 9k. "Engineers attempted to make the engine sound like that of a Formula One car with high revs," if the had a F1 engine in there they would have to do this.

Tampa Racing.com Lets repeat this again. " Taaaammmmppppa RRRRaaacccciiinnnng. A site about cars. This is a car. Who fucking cares if we can't afford it. I can't afford a brand new ZR1 or ZO6, or a 94 Supra TT highly modified or a 93 RX-7 modified with a LS swap going for 30k, but that won't stop me from talking about it or putting my .02 cents on it.

I didn't know you had to be chosen to be able to obtain that car. Although I do like the 2 year lease they do on them to prevent price gouging, I don't see the point to this car except exclusivity. I'll just wait till it comes out on Forza 3, and I'll pick one up lol.

Derived from their F1 program. Done much in the same way the new BMW M3 V8 was derived from BMW Salber. Its no secret that car companys get the new technology from racing.

This is a badass car. I doubt there's any vette out there that is as unique as the LFA. I'm sure if rich people wanna go fast, they will buy a vette. Cheap parts lmao!

Hold on lets build the vette in japan then call it JDM yo, then would intrigue you? the vette doesn't use "cheap" parts. Im sure if you see a ZR1 on the road you will gawk, I know I would.

its a badass car that is totally worth the money
I only wish I could be in a position to own one.
as for the too steep of a price tag for the amount of car.... lets look at some cheaper, slower cars... the rx-7 isn't a crazy amount of car, but it still costs $3-4 grand. (91 rx7) but a 240sx is worth between $1-2 grand (91 240sx)
two very similar cars as far as performance goes.
The rx7 tends to be held as a more "valuable" because of its A) "uncommonness" and B) "differentness"
rotorykidd, you're into rx7s and what not, you should understand this better than anyone in this thread, but it is the "I passed 573 identical looking hondas" honda guy that is trying to tell you about it....
weird how that works...

i understand your argument, and you have some valid points, but i still dont see this being worth the 300K+, but thats imho. some people could see shoveling out that kind of money, and more power too them. but if i had that kind of cash laying around, i could think of 30 cars i would rather have.
now before anyone jumps on my dick for this, it is in my opinion. everyone has them, wtf ever happened to "to each their own"?
