IMO there's one distinctive advantage the LFA has over all other supercars. That exhaust note. OMG it's just freaking perfect. OP, loved the in-car videos and how it pulls through the gears. Really felt like I was sitting in the passenger seat. It's amazing to know someone on AZine is going to have the ability to own one of these cars. Truly incredible. And I LOVE the blue color. The LFA is so different from all other supercars out there, why not get a color you wouldn't see on a Ferrari or Lambo. I think it's a perfect choice.

Thank you very much! I think that being unique is something to celebrate, not to shun upon. We are all entitled to our opinions which is one of the things that makes this country great, so if one person likes the car and another thinks it looks like it got smashed in the ass, we are all free to express ourselves as long as it is in a respectful way. A friend of mine thought I should have purchased an all black on black car and not the color scheme I picked. I said we are entitled to our own opinions. He is a big fan of that color scheme. When I told him I actually considered the orange color for a moment, he said that he would never be seen in something so hideous. I showed him my videos and he changed his tune.

Not technically, but I believe the engine is pushed back and sits behind the front "axel", plus it's a super light V10 - lighter than most V6s - so the balance is near 50/50.

Nah, you sure? I think TMZ said that his doctor wife fixed his injuries and wrote it off...so, free!

No Paypal donations needed.



I did send him some get-well robots!

I think Abcdecanc#1 should contact the guy to get some advice and notes on maintaining super/uber-cars...

Just a thought.

I don't have one yet, and I still think I am on the learning curve for maintaining a car. I'll take any advice I can get.

If you would not lie, how are things "prepped" at the front door? We talking hardwood? You know, assuming you are telling the truth... (just some humor so please don't take offense-none intended)
