@performancelosreyes The LF-A recorded a WET time around the Top Gear track of 1:22, the Aventador recorded a DRY time of 1:16. RWD + WET < AWD + DRY
As for Audi building cars to handle well... No. Just no. Audi handle terribly. The only Audi to actually handle reasonably are: The B5 RS4, the R8. That is it.
The R8 GT will get eaten alive by the LF-A, and especially so by the LF-A Nurburgring Edition. Although the R8 handles well for an Audi, it is nothing next to the scalpel called the LF-A
@performancelosreyes The LF-A is built to turn corners. You're also comparing a 560ish HP RWD to a 700ish HP 4WD car - from a standstill. That's not comparing cars, that's comparing traction, tyres and torque. Of course a 4WD will be quicker from zero!
As for the Lamborghini Aventador, that has its own unique chassis and drivetrain, unrelated from Audi completely. Volkswagen own both, but the Aventador is entirely unique to all other Volkwagen Group created vehicles.
@rivengle then explain the carbon white model thats been for sale the last 6 months sitting inside carma motorsports here in TN. Or the two located 9.2 miles from my home in Charlotte, NC at Hendrick Lexus.
Search and you should find. Lexus has beaten the Ferrari 599 GTO and Lambo Aventador. Of course not on speed wise. But everything else, comfort, quality built, handling, and everything else. look it up on youtube and google.
@mpfsupra in your dream, a LFA hardly deal a match against a Audi R8 V10 normal, a R8 GT is to much for the poor toyota, and you come here and claim the weak LFA can be face to face whit a Lamborgini Aventador you obvious are a big fan of Lexus.
Audi R8 V10- 7:44. That would mean the GT would need to beat the standard R8 V10 time by more than 30 seconds. Awkward.. Also, I can guarantee the LFA NB Edition will beat the Aventador around the Nurburgring. No Lambo has gone under 7:40. LOL!
@rwian The Aventador has a whole knew handling system and we all know how great Audi makes their handling. I have a feeling it will be getting close to the LFA.
@mpfsupra just look the key of Lexus...like in the 90´ whit a little box apart for the alarm, expensive pice of crap, and the fault just begin open the hood of the toyota...yes you will put a stick to hold it, go and check first. the Lambo have heritage.
You know, the EVO guys certainly aren't as funny or as overly dramatic as the Top Gears fellas, which I absolutely love.
But I actually really like how they do things at EVO, their mag is great, the reviewers are great, it's a simpler approach overall, but it definitely works for me. I love it!
i just got today the new EVO and inside is a test LFA vs 599 GTO and the Lexus wins the test. so his constatation doesnt make any sense but other than that its a good rewiev
cool mentioning the carrera gt's v10... considering the price, tech, and performance similarities... is there ANY chance i could see a comparison of the two??? i would love to hear what chris would say
put a Ferrari or Lambo badge on this car, and everyone would praise it..Toyota should fucking continue building supercars for fuck sake..go for a v12 engine next time and make it rev up to 13k rpm with a twin turbo maybe, and has a better sound and blowoffs than the pagani huayra, active aero,carbon fibre body, blown exhaust and kers? please toyota?? dont get me wrong, i love ferrari and lambo but its time for toyota, nissan and honda to shine in the supercar business..pagani has done it
Japanese cars are now tainted with high levels of nuclear radiation, including Plutonium-238, 239 and 240 which will increase your incidence of cancer, infertility and sperm damage.
400k for this pshhh gtfo. i wouldnt spend more than 100 for this and its made by lexus...if i had money like that i would skip and just go for a lambo a nice lil lp670 over this anytim
@johnyrate when Enzo came out MSRP was $750,000 that being said there were only 20 put into production... Now that only 16 remain (because of people who can't drive and crash them) they are in the millions and in order to buy one you have to have owned a 599gtb a 612 scagletti and a 355 in order to sell it, you have to sell it through a ferrari dealer, not on your own.
@PetaJUGENE Toyota and Yamaha made the Lexus LF-A, Ferrari makes Ferraris and Lamborghini make Lamborghinis, that´s the difference, yes their owned by Fiat and Audi but that´s it, they only fund the companies, they don´t engineer anything.
@rmcld That's not completely accurate. The interior of any Lamborghini shares switchgear and inspiration from an Audi R8/A8. More importantly, the V10 engine block in the Gallardo was developed by Audi. Ferrari is more bespoke, but it shares components with Maserati and Alfa Romeo. In the end almost all exotic car manufacturers have to lower costs by lifting technology from parent companies, or collaborating with other companies. Bentley for instance takes a lot from Volkswagen.
@BYSMA4th Sharing components and parts is one thing, building the engine is another, Lamborghini did build the Gallardo V10 not Audi.
Interiors are not engineering, they´re fashion.
I can assure you all the engines Ferrari or Lamborghini makes are build and engineered in Italy by their employees, these aren´t Multijet or TDI engines shared by a ton of cars.
@rmcld not entirely true, take lamborghini for instance, yes the raw engineering is by lambo but the technical engineering is by audi. I agree with you but audi is not just funding lambo. They make all the decisions and at the end of they day audi has control over what lambo does.
@maximilianboo Well if Audi makes the decisions for Lamborghini then VW makes the decisions for Audi? To much politics don´t you think? Seriously, you should see Evo´s review on the Aventador, VW, the boss, only did one thing, which was telling the Lamborghini team to make the number 1 sports car in the World, nothing else.
@rmcld That isn't true about lamborghini's though. There are bits of Audi in each Lambo. Some of the body panels are shared, instrument panel, 4wd system. There is alot of influence from Audi
@performancelosreyes Well fuck off, The lfa has nothing to come up against an aventador u stupid fuck! The aventador is in its own leage and the lfa isn't able to be compared with. The r8 GT will fuck it up!
@r8420 We agree the Aventador is to much for the LFA, and guess what the R8 GT is to much for the LFA to, as i say before right here. don´t have to be mad kid.
@rmcld the complete autobody and the painting is made in heilbronn/germany and some of the "new" engines for lamborghini are advanced by audi-technic. the assembling and setting up the components then take the part in sant’agata bolognese/italy. audi ag is not only a propietor company to the italian, but the one who support them to deployment their technic and building from advanced factories over the world...
@rmcld So, when Top Gear and Car and Driver complain about the Ferrari California's nav system being a Chrysler unit that came straight out of the Town & Country minivan, it's still actually a Ferrari nav?
@rmcld Whooooaaa!! Excuuuuse me!! I did not know I was "speaking" to the Car Wizard. And with the plethora of electronic engineering (there's that word you used) built into modern cars, all of it tied into the car's main ECM, how is a factory installed satnav not relevant to this conversation? And tell me Car Wizard, how many Gallardo components came from the Audi parts bin? I'm eagerly awaiting your answers!
@ginsunh Well the car wizard must again tell you that he shall not adress your gay doubts until you understand the diference between mechanical engineering and electronic bullshit who´s made by TomTom or Garmin, you really think Chrysler makes Sat Navs? what a stupid idiot. I don´t know nor do i care, i´m sure you do after rampaging through wikipedia n shit, seriously get a life, if you´re butthurt go see a doc, and yes the Gallardo engine was built by Lamborghini, like i said Audi funds.
@rmcld "gay doubts"? "electronic bullshit"? "you're butthurt"? Ha ha. Sorry, I had no idea I was debating somebody of such advanced maturity and technical knowledge. You win, young man. You win.
@v1htori you have to see one lamborghini in real life i mean the aventador, trust me you will forget LFA. On a side note, 0-60, handling, braking in almost all departments they excel and wait, let them bring the SV version of current lambo, that will be a monster.
The only thing LFA feels good is the sound it's engine makes, that's purely F1 sound, offcourse the interior is good too but hey, this car is not much compared to aventador forsure.
@performancelosreyes in my number LFA beat 599 GTO not an AVENTADOR in december. but i have just seen odder coments above and people say he beat the AVENTADOR to but i dont know for sure
@performancelosreyes and i agree aventador is a class for it self. 4wd,mid engine,700hp so its not comperable with an LFA but its better than 599GTO. Thanka for reply's
@2803977 I take a look to the Magazine, they have his own conclusions and in this case we agree whit they and of curse whit you. The LFA is better than 599 GTO, so we have to wait the respond of Ferrari.
@GR3B3N We say cheesy is a little aggressive form to describe it, the F40 is the expression of a racing car tacked to the road, this LFA is made from another angle, for be in a exclusive club. the F40 have the mission to beat the Porsche 959 an epic car.
@7SaRu enzo is a fucking legend man. LFA is not, it has the looks and above all the biggest selling point of the car is its exotic interior, but that's pretty much the same as audi R8 v10 and that's around 100,000 pounds. Enzo at the time of it's launch was no way near 1mil, that's another story though.
@johnyrate Well in the USA the Aventador is 4k more expensive than the base LFA. If price is such a concern then there's no way you'd look at either of those cars, but obviously price doesnt matter to the people who actually buy them, not just look at them on youtube.
I love how technical, and nerdy this car is, I love this noise, I love how it looks. I love everything.
You can argue that it's not as special as a Ferrari and the name in the world of supercars at least means nothing in comparison, but even Ferrari had to start somewhere. It's an incredible car and very rare.
I love how people don't like the LFA because it's a Lexus/Toyota...How about the ZR1-GM....GTR-Nissan...Ferrari-Fiat...Lamborghini-Audi..Audi-VW...and the list goes on...
Don't compare the GTR, the Lex is much much more focus car, it's better finish and better engine. Somebody who buys these kind of cars doesn't care about this price tag.
True, I am just disappointed it looks so different from the original concept which was very sleek and elegant, a very special design......the gaping intakes turn it into just another Jap tuner car.
@IwantaLexusLFA nice youtube name account...i can tell you have no clue about cars thats why u dick riding on one and yes the gtr is better in more then one way esp the quickness. and by looking at this lexus trying to look like the gtr.
@alanlancer008 Just one thing: LFA sold out since the first days on sale, GTR: A flop, you can find the sales numbers on google LMAO. I can go on with the carbon fiber space frame, the engine sound, the fact that the LFA is an exotic handbuilt (the gtr is just a granturismo but exotic is not, that's a big difference).But I guess you're that's what we italians call "bimbominkia",literally "little kid cock" or somethin...
@IwantaLexusLFA a car is not a album sale...no one cares how much they sell lol. who cares about lexus please. a fucking 2.0 liter evo fq400 is faster in a 1/4 mile then ur little lexus and you talking like you have one please stop....
@IwantaLexusLFA you dont know cars...anyone that says queer is probobly a redneck...and why r u a lexus dick rider? thats the biggest question. you talking like u own the car when you probobly dont drive shit.
@rwian lol you think if the car cost more it looks better hahaha the zr1 is 120k and shits on this like a baby shits in bed. second my evo mr runsw 10.8 that means....its faster then ur lil dream car in a 1/4 mile. omg am owning you really bad. You want me to buy you a rope so you can hang yourself?
@alanlancer008: You really think driving your Evo makes you cool.... sorry mate.
And please don't bring the ZR1 in to this, i love it i truly love it (look at my only video if you dont believe me) but no way it could ever be as cool or downright amazing as the LF-A. I have actually sat (not driven) in a ZR1 and can tell you that the interior looks like utter crap especially when you see pics of this LF-A's interior....
@Doedelzzakspeler if you think mine 2.0 evo 10 MR doing 11.3 in a 1/4 is not shit then u need to come to america so we can show you what big boys do around here. we dont drive no lexus. please i smoke that lil lexus in a q mile all day till my pipin burst. anything else.
@alanlancer008 do you know that the evo Viii fq beat the time of the ford gt in nordschleife... but nobody cares..... 1: it has no class, 2: it has a worse fuel consumtion!!!!!! sorry fo my english
@alanlancer008 thats no class maybe you wonder whats the difference betwen a z4 xdrive 35is and a corvette c6 for the same price class class class the evo its a grat car my favourite car under $75000 i prefer it over any subaru , but thats not class
@CC8sX06 a car is a car, price dont mean anything. only exotics i would drive if i had money will be from ferrarri to lambos the end....everthing else is trash to me
i really love that he puts money aside a car is not just about going fast its about how it makes you feel plus if you have the money to buy a supercar you probably are at a point that you dont care about money differences
@richhobo94 No he doesn't, he's talking about how with the Lexus ISF its just a lot of noise with nothing else to it, but with this car its a lot of noise and alsoo a great car to drive.
@MrBigolnuts Well, thats whats great about japanese styling. The world would be so boring if every car is elegant and beautiful. American, European and Asian cars have thier own styling wich is great!
I think in the EVO magazine, they did mention the biggest compliment they could say of it is it doesn't seem to be over-valued, even at 300k pounds. It's much,much more than just mere performance, this car. It's a whole more. It's the details that mark this one as something very special.
anyone who complains about the price wants one but can never afford to have one so they compare it to something cheaper, and plentiful like the GTR. only 500 of these being made folks. Rarer, better fit and finish, expensive materials, exotic engine. GTR engine is like a twin turbo 370z engine. common household item.
@timkuv A GT-R engine is very far from a twin turbo 370 z engine, only share the fact that it has six cylinders actually. I'm also going to say that this comment ranks among the most ignorant and ridiculous things I've ever seen on YouTube.
@omgfroobynoobs Your comment is classic, tell-tale GTR fanboy. I personally would rather have an STD than a GTR. The GTR sacrifices luxury, style, comfort, and driving involvement for computerized spec sheet performance which to me, is unacceptable in a super car.
@omgfroobynoobs Ha! Could you have made yourself look like a bigger fool? Every car toyota makes is successful. Kid, have you stopped and counted how many Camry's or Corolloa's or Prius' you see on your way to elementary school? The Supra my ass. The day of the Supra is long gone.
Alright so I love this car and If I cold afford it, yes i'd buy it.
However, for those of you bitching about how top gear criticized you must realize their point.
This is over 300,000 euro. The Bugatti might not be 12 times the car but it does out perform EVERYTHING. It is well worth it's price. Is this? I personally love this car and i'm not even a toyota fan but hnestley.. 300,000?
The GT-R is 80,000 U.S and out performs this car. The LFA isn't even barley better and thats the point.
costs just 200 thousand pounds, then how on earth you would go for 350K 550bhp super car which gets beaten by many in its category. And European made cars have by default high labor cost which increases the price. With all those factors when aventador latest model costs 100K pounds less then LFA, that to me is a poor engineering on part of toyota. Im sorry.
Nice !!!!

@v1htori you have to see one lamborghini in real life i mean the aventador, trust me you will forget LFA. On a side note, 0-60, handling, braking in almost all departments they excel and wait, let them bring the SV version of current lambo, that will be a monster.
The only thing LFA feels good is the sound it's engine makes, that's purely F1 sound, offcourse the interior is good too but hey, this car is not much compared to aventador forsure.

@johnyrate The drive is something that sells supercars, too. And the LFA has mastered that for many drivers.

@2803977 LFA hardly can deal a match agains a R8 not only in a 1/4 mile or a mile in a track to, the Aventador is to much for the Rookie LFA.

@performancelosreyes and i agree aventador is a class for it self. 4wd,mid engine,700hp so its not comperable with an LFA but its better than 599GTO. Thanka for reply's
2803977 2 months ago
@2803977 I take a look to the Magazine, they have his own conclusions and in this case we agree whit they and of curse whit you. The LFA is better than 599 GTO, so we have to wait the respond of Ferrari.

@GR3B3N We say cheesy is a little aggressive form to describe it, the F40 is the expression of a racing car tacked to the road, this LFA is made from another angle, for be in a exclusive club. the F40 have the mission to beat the Porsche 959 an epic car.

@7SaRu enzo is a fucking legend man. LFA is not, it has the looks and above all the biggest selling point of the car is its exotic interior, but that's pretty much the same as audi R8 v10 and that's around 100,000 pounds. Enzo at the time of it's launch was no way near 1mil, that's another story though.

@johnyrate Well in the USA the Aventador is 4k more expensive than the base LFA. If price is such a concern then there's no way you'd look at either of those cars, but obviously price doesnt matter to the people who actually buy them, not just look at them on youtube.

You can argue that it's not as special as a Ferrari and the name in the world of supercars at least means nothing in comparison, but even Ferrari had to start somewhere. It's an incredible car and very rare.

anyone who complains about the price wants one but can never afford to have one so they compare it to something cheaper, and plentiful like the GTR. only 500 of these being made folks. Rarer, better fit and finish, expensive materials, exotic engine. GTR engine is like a twin turbo 370z engine. common household item.

However, for those of you bitching about how top gear criticized you must realize their point.
This is over 300,000 euro. The Bugatti might not be 12 times the car but it does out perform EVERYTHING. It is well worth it's price. Is this? I personally love this car and i'm not even a toyota fan but hnestley.. 300,000?
The GT-R is 80,000 U.S and out performs this car. The LFA isn't even barley better and thats the point.

@OmnipotentV specially when this 700bhp monster:
/watch?v=seATTXQEv2k
costs just 200 thousand pounds, then how on earth you would go for 350K 550bhp super car which gets beaten by many in its category. And European made cars have by default high labor cost which increases the price. With all those factors when aventador latest model costs 100K pounds less then LFA, that to me is a poor engineering on part of toyota. Im sorry.
