Bruce Nunnally Posted November 15, 2009 Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/uptospeed/...motor-show.html Let's see -- would you rather have 6 Cadillac CTS-Vs, or 1 Lexus? I'd have to go with the half-dozen Vs over the $375K Toyota. A $375,000 Lexus? Toyota seems to think it's a good idea. The Lexus LFA, which debuted today at the Tokyo Motor Show, isn't, after all, one of their normal wares; it's their new supercar. The low-slung, angular body design houses a 4.8-liter V-10 engine that distributes a meaty 552 hp and 354 pound-foot of torque to the rear wheels via a six-speed sequential gearbox (don't hold your breath for a third pedal). It also clocks a 3.7-second 0-62 mph time at a top speed of 202 mph. Try racing your RX350 against that. The price may be prohibitive, but exclusivity generally wins out; Lexus is only producing 500 units for worldwide distribution, and we have little doubt every last one will sell. Hmm, similar performance to a $65K CTS-V http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/uptospeed/...motor-show.html Bruce 2023 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing Follow me on: Twitter Instagram Youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
