Drag Race: 2012 Lexus LFA vs 2010 Nissan GT-R

[usnsailor20]

Nearly 100k for a high 11 second 1/4 mile car...pass. And 400k for one that's only a hair faster? For 20k you can build a car that's easily a low 11 second/high 10 second car. Crazy prices.

[alex52184]

$400,000? NO BUENO, I WILL STICK WITH $90,000

[weiwei8899livemailtw]

V10 sounds sexy

[alexleeupton]

BUT LISTEN TO THAT NOISE!

[mdavid22]

Love of

Fast

Automobiles

That has to be LFA stands for!!!

[pirokun63]

I can't watch this because of pop-up commercial site, terrible

[Lokiito503]

3:01-3:10 Best part. " Or is it? "

[lewis8840]

I like both cars, but when you can get the GTR for under 100k and then put the stage 1 kit on it bumping it up to 700hp, spend another 300K on the LFA

[ryu1036]

400K???? fuck that. why not just buy a lambo aventador with that money

[scfog90]

400.000 against 85.000 haha!! Toyota still sucks.

[BigBallsOfFarly]

This guy has the worst sounding accent in the world

[paparazzizi]

the LFA looks and sounds amazing!!!

But the heavy GT-R is still faster to 60mph...?!

and when you put a tuning into the gt-r, that he would have the same HP like the LFA, i guess the LFA would loose on the quater mile...

[powerFamosa]

Barely? Just like Vin Diesel said... WINNING IS WINNING

[ubitches420]

i want millions of dollars please god!

[ericnomics1]

4 wheel drive.....

[xtoad9]

WTF?!?! In the other motor trend video when they get 11 cars together, the GT-R beats every car in this race but the LFA is also in it!!!!!

[nyelement007]

@xtoad9

this is an old video motor trend didnt race the 2012 GTR vs the lfa let alone the GTR spec V

[TheRealFreshbee]

Lexus LFA? i bet LFA stands for Lookin' Fucking Awesome.

[DerrickKohlhorst]

there has been 2 years of improvements to the Gt-r since the 2010. Way to waste time Motortrend.

[foooock]

search for "World's Greatest Drag Race" on youtube and youll be surprised

[jweezyswag526]

I like the nissAHHn gtr

[16134R]

not bad for a v6. way to go, nissan.

[GamerToosmart]

as much as a fanatic of toyota I am. I would still buy a gtr and upgrade it. However give me that engine in the LFA and put it in a FT86 or AE86 man i can see fun. SOOOO how much for the Engine? lmao

[SuperRehank]

ok now putthis against the 400 grand gtr 2012 black edition

[saxjamin]

The Lexus looks more a Nissan then the Nissan. When you're spending that kind of money, the style should be MUCH more "supercar like". Of course, with the top Supercars (Bugatti and Aston One-77) costing $1million+++, the Lexus is more like "entry level" (LOL) Supercar...

[MrSoapsoclean]

and it barely beat the gtr

[MrSoapsoclean]

for 400 thousand lexus can go fuck themselves

[GalaxyTrigger82]

lets buy a gt-r put another 300 grand in modifications into it then well see who wins.

[ItsSanny]

$300,000 for half a car length?! Whoever buys this car is retarded.

[Drasnovia]

Makes sense...but in their ultimate drag race video they had 11 cars including these two and the GTR shit all over everything. The nissan driver in this one sucks, proven

[jdubin94]

Lets be real, if money wasn't an issue, we would all take the LFA. Its a much more beautiful car. And that sound. Don't get me started.

[BandLowBattery]

LFA is missing a stylish rear wing.

[CobraVerde601]

The biggest thing people need to realize is that you more than likely get more pussy when you roll up in a LFA than if you roll up in a GTR....THE END.

[fatty1443]

@CobraVerde601 no youd get more pussy in a lambo...

[mfuji02]

ok Now test it against the 2012 GTR :/

[javyrmz]

The lexus LFA is too expensive for what you are getting, the gtr does the same if not better for a lot less

[whodashit]

Can't wait to see a LFA vs Tony Stark's NSX drag race!

[BitchIAintStupid]

Gtr will 300k and the gtr will probably blow up...ok maybe not but it will have A LOT of problems

[vanillanigger]

@BitchIAintStupid Your name is ironic, because clearly you ARE stupid.

[WORSTEVERR]

Isn't it funny these GTR trolls trying to defend the GTR when the GTR was made for performance and the LFA was made to be exclusive. LOLLOLOLOLOL

[TheNakedasshole]

they are compare a 2012 Lexus LFA and 2010 Nissan GT-R,compare with 2012 GTR......lexus LFA owned!

[WORSTEVERR]

@TheNakedasshole Let us know when the GTR reaches 200 MPH please.

[skillzlibat]

the 2012 GT-R will eat that lfa

[eloyleyva]

in case yall cant read right i put ".1 second" on my comment look closer and you'll see that there is a space between those periods.

[ericleeSupSayK]

The one that owns an LFA can afford the GTR as well...so wtf does it matter?

[Thewhitenerd]

2012 vs 2012. then see what would happen. 300 grand? GTR!

[nguyentuan1990]

this car is worth more than my house

[Amaniswonsan]

Would anyone be kind enough to give me $400,000? I think I'd look good in a LFA :)

[DareMeTheCrazy]

The back reminds me of the Audi R8

[techjoe040669]

It's all about traction and attraction.

Speed and gurlz

[petaredrev]

Price really makes no sense, What if you bought a GT-R and spent the rest tuning it to the price tag of the LFA? That would be a rocket.

[elbradamontes]

ok this was one test... the 1/4 mile. I'm sure Toyota doesn't expect people to pay 400k for 1/4 mile times. I mean an ugly ass foxbody with 20k dumped in it would beat that. But that's not the point of this car. But I have a volvo so what do I know.

[espedid]

nobody ever talks about the fuel economy

[braindawgs9]

I bet the LFA would stomp the GT-R on the track, but if you dump 300k worth of mods in it, it would probably go 400mph!

[EpEdEmEC]

If i had the dinero for a LFA, i'd buy 4 GT-R's and give 3 to my closest friends and every Saturday we would play real world Gran Turismo :D

[72impalavert]

@EpEdEmEC Fucking genious do you have Facebook?

[CAptofDatAss]

@72impalavert Rofl, you must be a genius yourself, seeing as how you can spell so well. American public school education for the win!!

[72impalavert]

@CAptofDatAss Threat?

[superford500]

@EpEdEmEC can i be one of those 3 friends ? :D

[KGStud94]

@EpEdEmEC Forza is better :)

[raymanlegy]

@EpEdEmEC Get a 2012 GT-R : O fast and sexy woo

[PoorIllyrian]

gtr is around 80-100k in other side lfa is 400k come on

[aaaaflasd]

Guys, you would really only want the LFA if you had the money

[megaflex48]

i live in cleveland ohio we don't have the roads to support any car like these..lol

[2ultramax]

it is not 1 second difference it is 1 10th of a second for 300,000 more and the 2012 would stomp the lfa bad and if you send your gt-r to ams for 40,000 your gt-r will do low 9s in the 1/4 check out ams gt-r on youtube the 1500 hp gt-r is in the 8s

[tooblindtofinehome1]

$80,000 to $400,000

GTR: Getalookat That Rearend

[AntonyBrayley]

So, let's drop another 300K into the GTR, just to even things up a bit and see what it can do. Probably do the 1/4 mile in 6 seconds and by the time the race is over the LFA will be completely melted in the wake of the GTR's exhaust!!!

Or we can really simplify it and put the LFA up against the GTR Alpha 9. 0 - 60 in 2.6 seconds...

[sapporonotomotyan]

最新型のGT‐Ｒ だったら、もっとレスポンスたかかったのでしょうね。レクサスに­は、負けたくないです！



[chingchong9ify]

Of course its japanese

[XXXCompAssesXXX]

Do you have to be British to test cars on Youtube channels?

[livz4speed86]

once a nissan fan always a nissan fan

[javyrmz]

@livz4speed86 very true

[KoolKillerish]

i love the lfa

[SDkawi6]

I like GTR's but Fu** that LFA's exhaust sounds Fu***** AWESOME!!!!!!

[fanaruvalentin]

@SDkawi6 replace exaust system for gta and still got 300.00 $ for vacation

[SDkawi6]

@fanaruvalentin But it wont sound like that... that LFA screams!

[TheRajmeister]

Let's compare apples to apples here. In YT video rNT2UijpCMs the same MT guys run a 2012 GT-R against an '11 Corvette Z06 and an '11 Shelby GT500. Again, mixing years.

However, *THAT* GT-R finishes the quarter mile (at presumably the same track) in ***11.2*** seconds.

11.8 what?

[StaleGrungeMusic]

...inch ahead? its 3/4 a car ahead.

[djpat27]

@StaleGrungeMusic he must have said that by looking at the monitor, on a 20" its pretty close to an inch :P

[xKurogashi]

It's a shame that the launch control on the GT-R will fuck up your car after awhile, and then you gotta spend money to replace it. Ahh.. there's always a string attached.

[TheRajmeister]

@xKurogashi This from a tranny that's, what, 1/6 of the total cost of the car, too? Boo!

But I still love it....

[TroutFink]

Put bigger turbos in the GT-R and save yourself $250,000.

[juglaresco]

compare these two on the circuit... btw the nissan is nicest than the lexus and cheaper

[eloyleyva]

11.8 seconds and 11.9 seconds.... .1 second diffirence in the quarter mile but 300 thousand dollar diffirence in the price. the lexus LFA is the most beautiful car that lexus has ever made and the japanese really outdid themselves with that lcd screen. but the price diffirence is just insane i would take the GTR over the LFA any day

[EduWestCoastRap]

@eloyleyva it's not only about the price/performance relation, every car has a unique personality and objective

[niceboy60]

@eloyleyva the GTR is now on sale with 545hp (stock)

.

As the LFA was struggling to pass the OLD GTR with only 480hp

.

I have no doubt in my Mind the new GTR 545hp (stock) become much faster than the LFA

[izzelf]

@eloyleyva Question is, how much would you pay for a win.

[Weissman111]

@eloyleyva Don't you mean 0.1 seconds :-)

[ThePockie]

@eloyleyva - one second?

[Metaliclp]

@eloyleyva What you said is really interesting but it's 0.1 second :)

[yuri250333]

then how the fuck in the 11 car drag race did the fucking GTR win over the LFA the Italia the GT3 and the R8??? weirdly enough its done by autotrend and a quarter mile drag...!!!

[Reconcile100]

tsk tsk tsk.. ASIANS ARE GOING TO FAR!

[TheRajmeister]

@Reconcile100 Not damned far enough. I <3 my Godzilla. And I always will.

[GVK94]

but it lost in the 11 car drag race... hmm...

[JDMboldo323]

That a nice car

[dennisalbert98]

This video rocks



[jacob50566]

I'm prettty sure a stock 2011 mustang gt can run a 10 with just tires...

[TheFryingPan16]

I'm pretty sure the 2010 GT-R is the slowest. And the GT-R is much more liveable than the LFA

[BlackTintedWindows]

If you're an American who owns a Jap car - you should be ashamed and embarrassed

[surf1ife]

@BlackTintedWindows lol really man? most "JAP" cars employ more Americans that the big three

[BlackTintedWindows]

@surf1ife jap cars are embarrassing pieces of shit lol

[javyrmz]

@BlackTintedWindows american cars are worse. they need v8 to keep up with v6

[Behemoth413]

@BlackTintedWindows Thats why i cant wait for the new 2013 SRT Viper, its gonna be a beast! >:)

[antiqua100]

Fuck Toy and Datsun.

[johnnieares93]

GTR is the best!

[BlackTintedWindows]

Whoever buys an LFA got ripped off. The LFA is not worth more than 100K in parts - you're giving an extra 300K to some jap who's laughing at you for buying his stupid piece of shit

[BlackTintedWindows]

asian cars are all garbage

[Mafia2786]

Try doing that with the 2012 GTR and watch it rape that lfa

[rickrossthebosz]

is this the 550 or the 530 hp gtr?

[brutepunk25]

400,000 for a Lexus? then go for an R8 or Gallardo instead

[BraycoMicronic]

@brutepunk25 what and be slower?

[CesarRdMRO]

Now, compare the 2012 LFA against the 2012/2013 GT-R. There were some kick-ass improvements in these 2-3 years!

[fatty1443]

@CesarRdMRO compare both against the 2013 shelby gt500. let me know when one of them can hit 202 mph for $60,000.

[CesarRdMRO]

@fatty1443 let me know when he can do Nurburgring under 7:30

[javyrmz]

@fatty1443 the gtr can still beat your rwd car. even if it goes slower the nissan can hit 192mph

[fatty1443]

@javyrmz thats how much the vette z06 hits, but the z06 beats its nurburgring lap AND is $30,000 cheaper than the Nissan.

[javyrmz]

@fatty1443 the gtr beats it in 1/4 mile. better launch control, and better design. The gtr looks more modern, the corvette looks like its from the 80's. plus the new 2012 gtr is a beast more power and its still the great v6 tt we all love. doesnt need a v8 to beat or to be in almost the same category as a super car.

[niceboy60]

@CesarRdMRO yes the new GTR is now on sale with 545hp (stock)

.

LFA is doomed

[prodrummer999]

can stop the earths rotation? and how does that work exactly?

[BlackTintedWindows]

I'd never buy an asian car - fuck them. Fuck toyota, fuck acura, fuck lexus, fuck honda, fuck mitsubishi, fuck all asian cars - pieces of shit

[VFS112]

@BlackTintedWindows Which country would you buy them from?

[jdale04]

better than any woman.

[piero17sb]

@jdale04 too far dude...

[thelastemperor88]

wow who's the idiot to spend 400,000 on that lexus. why is it even that expensive there is nothing special about it, looks like normal Japanese car, the gtr looks better and almost as fast as the lfa.

[tyleriscool22]

@thelastemperor88 and the GT-R back then was only 85k

[OldboySaint]

Too bad Dodge Viper ACR is faster than both of those.

[owie3130]

lambo element still looks and preforms better



[keagleeye]

No matter what, Id still go for a Nissan...

[caiocrz]

GTR anyday!

[esmailalfar123]

Those cars came out. In fast 5 sweeeet !

[AL3mad1]

THE LEXUS DOES NOT DESERVE TO PAY 400,000$ ON IT SIMPLY BECAUSE IT IS A JAPANESE CAR SO IT'S TO MUCH, IS TO BETTER IF I PAY IT IN ITALIAN OR GERMANY CARS . LUXURY, POWER , QUALITY, BRAND!!

[undertake782]

@AL3mad1 Lol just because it's Japanese? You are very racist my friend. You do know the LFA is made with the most complex technologies and lots of carbon fiber. Way more than a Lamborghini would have.

[BlackTintedWindows]

@undertake782 LFA is a piece of shit, I;m sorry, but it is.

[ouzomitsos]

gtr poor mans supercar lol lfa has class is faster and betterlooking also once there's a rolling start in the race gtr has no chance only good upto 80k's

[TheImmortaleyeZ]

Hmmm... is that 0.1 second worth the extra $310,000?

[NYCSputnik]

@TheImmortaleyeZ Yes it does! Drag speed isn't everything, you know :)

[TheImmortaleyeZ]

@NYCSputnik True, and the LFA was about 10 seconds faster around the Nurburgring.

[moriS6708]

@TheImmortaleyeZ The LFA isn't about 1/4mile time. It's one of the fastest cars at the Nurburgring track. Stupid Americans always do a drag race review. Neither of these cars were really meant for drag race.

[iHouZ]

@moriS6708 well - the gtr does well at the Nurburgring track too :) the 4wd helps a lot...

[BraycoMicronic]

@TheImmortaleyeZ  Nope its not .... for $550 you can re map a GTR to 600 HP :-)

[Shift4g]

@TheImmortaleyeZ To someone who cares more about the sum of the parts and less the sum of the laptop screen, yes. I would pay more for the sound alone.

[2slick35]

the gt-r is the best bang for the buck between these two. i would buy the gt-r and have enough change left to tune,tweak,and bolt on the mods to greatly reverse the out come of this already close race.

[jsp760]

Istill choose the gtr! and Its only a quarter the price of the lfa!

[n3rdbear]

So a track full of corners, the GT-R would win because of its fast acceleration speeding out of a corner.

[tramellanderson]

this race is BULL SHIT 2012 vs a 2010 get this shit out of here

[itssimpleiwinyoulose]

the 2012 GTR beats the LFA lol

[HistoryHmoobGuy]

9000 RPM ?

My Integra redline @ 10,000 RPM !

[LadyPotchi12]

@HistoryHmoobGuy

but not half a second..

[HistoryHmoobGuy]

@LadyPotchi12 yea in half a second if im in nutural !

[VFS112]

@HistoryHmoobGuy If you're in neutral then the gearbox is doing stuff all...

[m0nkeybizness]

I'm a girly girl, and don't know much about cars. But I must say I got an orgasm watching this... Hehehe...

[MrVincentbbb]

2012 vs 2010..... The most fair match in the world.

[142673489]

no way would i spend 300 grand more for LFA it just barely won....

[Che1seabluesdrogba11]

V10 wighs less than a V6 WTF FACE LOl both cars are tits though

[mjr102395]

LFA all the way.

[4ndyA4]

sorry lexus,you lost anyway.

[itzmeee98]

best lookin car everr!!!!!!

[MercilessHurricane]

@MaistroDavid Agree to disagree then.

Can't argue against the LFA's exhaust note though, acoustically amazing!

[Oldjohn52]

Nah, GTR for me. LFA is brilliant but has no luggage space, only fits two people and every cop within 50 miles will be gunning for you. It is POSSIBLE to be less conspicuous in a GTR, but, admittedly, restraining the right foot would be a challenge. That and the LFA costs four times as much

[VFS112]

@Oldjohn52 I reckon cops will be paying close attention to both, regardless.

[penyutua]

both from japan..

[Greendude33]

Regardless almost everyone would take the LFA over the GTR, it has the ultra exclusive speciality feel

[DonTheChron420]

@kidsation its an air intake

This is Very in accurate, the GTR would school the LFA, the 2013 GTR goes 0-60 in 2.7 seconds, the LFA goes 0-60 in 3.8 seconds, huge difference.
