[OMGLouiE]

[teroollila]

Excuse me wievers, one word. Supra.

[ChiTownBullzzz21]

[daebob]

160,000??? WTF

[DroopyDog17]

not so sure... kidding me?

[MrDeathrevenger]

that sounds so much better than a Lamborghini Gallardo

[xxxEmmureOwnxxx]

wow nicw car

[MrZachgonz]

rather get a 2012 gtr

[yourallstoopid]

300k......GAY FAGGIT NIGGER KIKE FUCK GAY

[biglee13m]

man.. engine sound in that curtain scene was totally panty dropper... holy shit it's like a godzilla trying to unleash himself out of cage

[Kahnartist112]

that thing sounds like a beast!!! too bad my poor ass will never have one lmao

[efrette]

love the sound of the exhaust amazing car love it

[EddieFivespeed]

I sounds absolutely amazing! It looks nice if it where the new supra, but for a 300000 dollar car it's ugly!

[MarcusLKF001]

Looks Fucking Awesome

[HondaSuperSport1100]

my new goal in life is to buy this car, sounds like formula 1

[Kuraud0]

how did that sound..? HOW DID THAT SOUND?! sounded like i just jizzed my pants....

[TRUDOWNSOUTH]

I' just got my LFA for Christmas!!! YAY!! me!!!

[skittleslover1997]

funny, my 99 supra has 1000hp and tops at 205. and it doesnt sound like my dads weed eater eihter :p

[waydlemx]

@skittleslover1997 seeing as how you uploaded a video about skittles and not your 1000hp supra your talking absoloute shit.

[waterfordjim]

Barbecue cats and dogs.

[itsxb]

sounds like Godzilla is about to come kick my ass.

[llfootball62]

bring back the supra

[heartlessvietboy]

The LF-A is the baddest car around in Passionate Pink.

[tubetubetube71]

hear me ROAR

[21268]

buy the car show it off on the expressway muahahaha

[GTAXPlayer]

This is GOD oF Car.

[laurence265]

F1 sound basically... simply awsome!

[GTRAttack]

first and foremost, I want to make it clear that I'm a Nissan GTR fanatic.

I wasn't impress with the LFA's spec sheet at first (compared to the GTR's), but after hearing the sound of a production car that's comparable to an F1 race car is INSANE!!! If the sound doen's get your heartbeat racing; nothing will.

As a car enthusist, I should have known better that just to compare specs.

But for the money, I would still buy the GTR over the LFA anytime!!!

[kenzeus]

@GTRAttack

To show off I would buy the LFA ( The only real reason a person spends 375k on a car)

For Racing I would buy the GTR.

GTR with custom engine owns most sportcars ;)

[manusnadh]

@GTRAttack

but u should know that the LFA will beat the GTR anytime

[KiRiMa64]

A 2005 Porsche Carrera GT is at least $285K. Don't get me wrong(I love the LFA)but at that price I could buy a freaking house. Note to self-must play lottery.

[Lukeschedel]

Wow wtf toyota is lexus?....WAIT WTF? LEXUS IS JAPANESE?!?!?! Whoa....

[adytia1]

loves this car...nice gadget & great sound!!!good start for LEXUS!!!

[pedrofirestarter21]

Lexus team has spent 9 (yes, NINE years) developing this concept car... About the outside, the front grill, bumper and hood have been designed to channel the air through the engine, under the car and to the MASSIVE air intakes behind the doors, giving this car almost no air resistance. Also, do you know this is the car with the lowest gravity center in the world (non-F1 of course)? Even the windshield wipers fuild's contanair has been designed to be almost touching the ground. I would buy it :D

[rey1164]

y does that sound like a rotary....

[VII0777]

speed 71293 has a point. The Toyota name is NOT associated with high performance super-cars. And there's Toyota's accelerator catastrophe which is not helping its reputation, however great it may be. But in any case THIS car is going to rocket Toyota/Lexus into the super car market. From there, they will only get better.

As for the LFA itself, it's sleek, modern, visually unique, and has yet more life outside the track. Great debut for Lexus. Let's hope there's more after this bad*** car.

[DjDexUno]

@VII0777 lets not 4get the supra even if its 13 years old :D

[VII0777]

@DjDexUno Of course! Supra is still great!

[ManiacMartin00]

I would expect to see this car rolling with Ferrari's and Lambo's. it has that feel about it. 375,000 for a car that can chill with 670,000$ + cars... I'm immensely jealous of the few that get this car. to quote Luciesss (high rated post) "... that sound would keep me young forever :D " Couldn't say it better myself.

[p4horror]

Very sweet ride but no way at that price tag. If I were rich & I were to pursue an exotic car I would pick the Lamborghini Gallardo. It's fast enough, looks great & is less than half of this unbelieveably whooping price tag.

[speed71293]

an expensive toyota. so it is not worth it at all. 350k down the drain for the car

[asiandrifter1]

@speed71293 toyota/lexus best cars ever made

[speed71293]

lol i know a car that is worth 70k and is faster than that. btw yay the engine sounds like a F1 car the car is still slow for 360k.i can buy myself a porsche 911 turbo for 150k and it's 0-60 in 3.5sec or maybe a turbo S which is 0-60 in 3.1 sec. and then i have enough money to buy myself an M3 and a Caterham which btw does 0-60 in 2.88 seconds. so i have 3 cars money left over to make them all look even more beast that what they already are. buy a few sets of tires for each and not have____

[2jzgtejza80]

@speed71293

None of any supercar ever made with technology and quality of materials like LF-A.

Only engine is the world ((with B.Veyron W16)) which is made from one piece of aluminum (forged block).

If you looking Ferrari and LF-A engine, LF-A will last much longer without services. Porsche cars are like tuners, small engines with turbos, static design, except CGT.

When Japanese engineers make 400,000$ car, that's really worth every cent. Read about LF-A more why actually worth so much.

[tehrealsoadfan]

0:48 gave me chills. :O!!!

[Toyota4Life]

From a 1 - 10 this car rates at a freakin 20.

[Lie127]

wow..... that's why toyota went out from F1.......

[padis]

pussy magnet :)

[eduardolz31]

I pray they have it in Gran Turismo 5.

[efrette]

4.8 litros and v10 amazing sound wow fucking car its amazing

[warset]

well, it sure does look nice... but $350K nice? not so sure anymore

[psychocycledad]

expensive

[davidchoyyaohui]

i like this car because of the remote control spoiler which is pretty unique.

[dreampilot2]

Japanese technology, need I say more?

[samsome67]

lexus you amde me proud even thourght my dad iws friend with th eonwer of elxus you make me proud!

[Art2703]

People can easily show stupidity when saying something out.. When the guy said I am not sure, what would you know ? The car has just been explored, and the guy didn't even see anything or know anything about the car yet at all..

[ajraymond1]

@ekuwa69, if everything were about 0-60 times we'd all be riding motorbikes or driving electric cars.

[SngThe]

it is indeed expensive, but that's highly because it's limited in production, they wanna make it exclusive.

[destin325]

300,000 for a lexus? thanks ill pass

whats next a  $120,000 chevorlet? ..oops spoke too soon.

throwing in a monster engine, adding carbon parts, and then attaching a 6 figure price tag doesnt command respect....years of proven history do. there are "classes" for a reason.....a hobo that wins the lotto will still stick out like a sore thumb at a ball.

[pedross04]

Beautiful car but a ridiculous price though :/

[esrbt]

a v10 engine with this kind of pitch..that was amazing..

[PaladinHludwig]

liste, at 0:55 ...Can you hear how the guy guy inside that Toyota has to fight with the gas pedal just to get it to idle and not stay in LFA (Locked Full Acceleration)?

If you want quality you gotta pay large! haohaaa!

[ekuwa69]

$360,000 for 0 to 60 in 3.7 seconds.

Or for half the price you could just get a Tesla Roadster Sport.

[makoto4473jp]

↑↑↑ click　Lexus LF-A ＆　TOYOTA F1 Please look

[Hmongpersononly]

its too bad its going to be very expensive

[joseeduardoescobar]

it's amazing toyota needed 4more cylinders to compete with the king GTR, just a reminder to toyota GTR = GODZILLA, and GODZILLA will devour that $300+ silly ass lexus.

[HONDATA24]

GTR

[phibonez]

Based upon the videos i've seen so far. Here's my $.02

Most definitely:

a good performer.

luxurious while being sporty.

on the other hand:

It's expensive,

I wont be surprised that the Ferrari 458 italia is much faster than this one.

CHANGE THE GEAR BOX Lexus. PLEASE!!!

SLow gear changes compared to other paddies,,

[bigkckrva]

i love the LFA.., Japan is bringing back they're Supercars and the NSX is next, and the GTR is the KING in Japan..

[racer180sx]

@bigkckrva the GTR aint gonna be king no more as the LFAs sticking pedal will out run it at full throttle v-10 yeah! hahhahahahaha

[bigkckrva]

@racer180sx...i like the LFA...but lets be real here..LFA 0-60 (3.7) "Base GTR" (3.3-3.5) (NOT Spec V GTR) (3.1-3.3) and the LFA doesn't out perform the Base GTR and Spec V GTR, and the Spec V GTR is the KING of Japan! The next model GTR (R36) will have 600hp+ alittle lighter than the Spec V GTR but thats a different story....

[2jzgtejza80]

@bigkckrva

LF-A is not constructed to compete with GT-R

[pheargoth]

Sorry, but all of Nissans excellent engineering on the r35 gtr, does not compare to a 550BHP 4.8 litre V10 that fucken redlines at 9000 Rpm....this car is an engineering masterpiece, and looks beautiful too

[bigkckrva]

it better be a masterpiece if u paying over 350k!! I like the LFA but i'll take the Spec V GTR first..

[2damax255]

Looks weird from the front. sounds awesome. interior is super sweet. looks comfortable in there.

[TruthUnmasked]

i like the backside shape of the car not the front! they gota come better looks wise if they wana compete with ferrari & lamborghini. but im sure the engine and technology is where it all counts and of superb quality.

[soyaz33]

lets just wait a few years and get it for half the price, sounds great.

[stevenmcnair1897]

TOO EXPENSIVE....spend the money on a GTR and upgrades, you'll blow this away

[adcb913]

it took to long to come out 9 years

and to much money

[mcximus]

362 large one? common..it'a a toyota. not a house

[sanjerese]

this car is totally beautiful but i gotta agree with him the exterior doesn't have the exotic look to make up for the price...

[anfman1986]

It looks far, far better than a 599. Hump Ferrari all you want, this car has a sound and look that will remain distinctive forevermore. Selling them to someone other that Middle Eastern oil tycoons will be the problem.

[liv38ig]

HOLY SHIT.......... I wish I was rich enough to buy a car like this

[Sinliner17]

i rather buy a Nissan GT-R

[Panditha666]

cause they have NEVER made a skyline before...

[Ebbsilen]

@Sinliner17 Maybe the Nissan is faster but it will never have that incredible look! Ok R32 and R33 was nice but the new one is totally gross imo.

[wolverine889]

it is fuckin awsoume

[bio1guyver1]

SO if i'm single and make 120 grand a year I should be able to afford this car at about 5000 a month not a bad deal too bad there will probably be a waiting list.

[dhom100]

yeah I think they suspect that each car will be sold before it's made. that means there will be a waiting list in case buyer changes his/her mind. everything will be hand made and according to owner specifications once owner is chosen.

[tripsis1]

hope mazda make a road going furai to kill this thing, dont hate it just want to rturn to the days of awesomeness having seris 8 rx7s skylines, silvias and supras

[TheKrewl]

dont worry they wont..

[razehey]

it cost more than a lamborghini? but its exclusive and sounds unreal also made of carbon fibre...its pretty hard choiice but ..if i had money id definitely consider it.

[Scarfaceweedman]

this guy is an asshole! This car is hot and it is worth the money

[luciesss]

if I ever won the lottery I would buy it in a heart beat. these cars actually cost more later because they are so exclusive and only 500 are made world wide and i'm sure the quality is amazing after all I would get me goose bumps every time turning the car on that sound would keep me young forever :D

[gengiz]

this thing is in another league compared to the crappy quality zr1, but its still bit too much but its note is amazing and styling is very original

[Supranium]

360000 :o

Not worth it...

[masaimara]

How the fuck moron like u can know?? Have u even seen that car in real life?? Do us a favour m8, get a knife and run into it.

[TheKrewl]

god your stupid.

[Dinosaur3210]

dam, that really sounds like an f1 engine. shit kicks ass.

[carducho]

maybe it's not the prettiest supercar of the lot, and has a hefty price tag, but i would sell a kidney just for such a sound!

[andy993]

I think this car's purpose is to raise media attention and put Toyota back in the sports car arena in hopes to make cars such as the upcoming FT-86 sell better. I mean they could have made this car look MUCH better but instead, chose to make it look similar to upcoming models for a reason... It's all part of a big marketing scheme. LOL.

[yourmom794]

Oh... my... god.

[iibxflankin]

it looks lika a 370z r8 put together

[andreakatickles1]

bomboclaat wicked lexus is di bestest. blessed

[iceeman23]

freaking mean sounding engine. Lexus/Toyota did a great job on this project. The price point is little higher than expected, but nevertheless a beautiful work of art.

[haveugotserved]

Damn that thing is hot

[KCM808]

wooooohhhhooooo damn. that is a beautiful car. i wish i had the cash. i settled for the IS350 instead.

[Russianfighter04]

ppl plz stop comperin this baby with the nissan gtr !!!!! fuck!!! this car is a piece of art .....and it sounds sooo danm sexy,,,

sponation kid!! shut up ...ypu dont even know what you're talkin about,,herb!!!!

[shunynn]

Why not buy a ferrari enzo instead?.. ill fucking tell you why scrub. ferrari enzo is 1 million dollars.. how the fuck do you even compare 1 million to 350k? go back to grade 1 you dumb ass. on another note this car looks like a futuristic supra

[samstterhamstteer]

so you like cars by the price tag?

[normalais]

price tag means nothing to the people who will buy it

[dnur567]

well I think the LFA and GTR are two different types of performance/ supercar. THE LFA as mentioned previously is alot like Honda's NSX in the 1990s whose target was the Ferrari 300 series?

[Tata996]

I like Lexus, but this was a great marketing blunder. Who would pay obscene prices for a Lexus? Anyone for a CGT, Enzo, Zonda or Lambo?

[dangsingraven]

dude every car has a unique thing. shit. i would say this car over the gtr simply cause i dont like nissian,

also, im more about performance then just 0-60

0-60<60-200

[PheenongLao]

I'm sure all the hater like to see Lexus's fail. 360K for a formula one technology I think it worth it.

[FishingFanboy]

They already failed. During the development of this car they said they'll release it when they win in F-1...lol, they still haven't won.

Also they're LOSING money on this car.

[oneviwatara]

Government motor=failed motor. hahahaha!!!!!

[755hp]

What an opening...........thats how it done!!

Sick ass opening!! Just listen to that V10!!!

[sponation]

Nissan already did that car! its called a GT-R and it only cost 80,000$ in the US, and is faster 0-60

[FastlaneLexus]

i like the GTR but it sounds like shit. and this thing is better all around

[sponation]

yeah but it cost 360k and its slower than a GTR, that only costs 80k! sounds like a no brainer, Toyota screwed up! BIG TIME

[crisjoel]

how did you come up with that conclusion? have you driven the LF-A?

[kingre1986]

0-60.. thats all??

GT-R looks and sound nothing like the LF-A, just look at the material they used when they built this.. give the lf-a and gt-r a full race 0 to 200mph and i bet you the gt-r will be at least 50 cars behind the lf-a.. it is expensive i agree but why wudnt i pay 350ks for a lexus that will be more reliable than a lambo or ferrari?? and it does everything the same too!

[drbos]

This car is going to make the ZR1 eats some chocolate chips cookies.

[MadManDrivinHere]

for 3x the price I'd expect it to be better than the ZR1! I personally would still buy a ZR1... something magical about the vette.

[Noneam33]

good car fail in price I prefer the new Ferrari456 italia than this ridiculous expensive and soul lessn car

[oneviwatara]

What's stopping from buying Ferrari 456 or Enzo?

[supertrex2]

coz their overrated/

[ForTehNguyen]

yea ok, try finding an enzo for the MSRP price

[contractki11er]

if you have $360,000 to spare on expensive cars i would go and get a One-77 or SL 65 AMG black series.

[hotsoupmess]

An Aston One-77 cost 1.2 million pounds. Can you buy it with your few dollars?

[contractki11er]

if you have 360,000 to spare on a car im sure you could fork out that extra to get a One-77

[supertrex2]

this car is for racing. AMG is only for looks./

[XHouseSlipperX]

I would like to see Top Gear with this car.

[fosterdanny]

Japanese cars rock!

[mail22]

not worth more than $150-175K. Looks are average, and the performance is not worth $360K.

[beerndumplings]

scarcity is the selling point for these expensive sports cars.

[jrb752]

not going to sell

[oneviwatara]

Lexus said they will not be selling LF-A to just any body that have money idiot.

Only 150 will be available in North America and South America combine.

Good luck try to buy one redneck. hahahaha!!!

[z32pilot]

ummm .. 360k price tag is just stupid !!

has a bit too much japanese and not enough ""EXOTIC"" i'll pass on this one and wait for the next LAMBO which will probably cost a bit more than 360K since the Murcielago already cost that much.

[search4unknown]

that car is going to be SOOOO rare... because no one is going to buy one.

[minidude524]

id never buy it maybe if it was like 150k it would be worth it but 380k is mercielago or 599 money

[orye08]

This would have been a perfect competetor to the GTR but $360,000!! For that much it should have at least 700hp to compete with Zondas and SLRs. but i dont think it does.

[Stashek123]

Man this car is about design, quality, soul. It will be the fastest or almost the fastest front engine car on market. It will eat SLR without it's hp, having 700hp doesn't make u fast, it just give u good high speed. Lexus has enough high speed and the goal wasn't competing with some exotic cars like Zonda, but crush SLR, SLS, 599 or DBS and I am sure they will succed.

[oneviwatara]

Amazing sound. I wish I'm super rich.

[dtmfreak]

for a supercar it's rather ugly uuuck

[03Gs430]

I need one....PLEASE!

[Kovayaj]

360k.... i 'll give myself 4 nissan gtr.

[lexusisf250]

Lexus made the best car in the world. R8 is not even in the same league as the LFA.

[TheCanadian604]

favourite car

[jboog06]

Sounds like a leaf blower.lol

[rusobeefcake]

V10 leaf blower?

[SandbergXC4]

hahaha yes indeed :P

[ekstra12]

and you own a Porsche not a toyota/lexus...lol

[realCL23]

let me know where you can get a brand new carrera GT for $258,000. Brand new meaning delivery miles and untitled....

[Bahamuttiamat]

they stopped making carrera gts... Cant get it new..

[realCL23]

ding ding! we have a winner! lol

[gruhonjic]

this car made me gay

[shortattentionspan1]

the first 360K$ I get my hands on will go to one of these baby' s - that is, if my wife say's it's OK .... ha ha

[nima0071]

so ugly. i rather to buy an r8 v10. and as for sound no cars sound as good as ferrari 430

[realCL23]

430 scuderia sounds better than a 430. Even 360 CS sounds better than a 430

[thinkpico]

@MrZhiza

Comparing a LFA to an Audi... not a good thing.

If youre comparing it to an R8... thats bad.

[haloaum]

looks and sounds fantastic !!!

[MrZhiza]

looks like audi/

[MrAmericanWetback]

thats fuckin CLEAN

[YTman28]

Good luck selling that muthafucka.

[anthony6151]

with a sound like that... if I had the money I'd buy it.

[YTman28]

It sounded like a Lambo Murcielago.

[thedefinitive]

while i might be impressed with the car from an engineering standpoint, it's just not grabbing me visually. if i had that kind of money to blow on a car, i'd rather have an aston martin anything, or even that new merc sls gullwing. and if we're talking hp figures, i'd take a dodge viper. it does sound wicked though

[carl206rc]

first I thought 300000 for a toyota wtf but after hear how it sounds I think it worth it and there are only 500 cool

[imking7]

so is there going to be a la or l becuse this is a f

[Interdicted]

360k? omfg

[toyotas2006]

I do wish they stayed with the concept's front end

BEAUTIFUL!

Looked like the 458 Italia, only better!

But they obviously needed more cooling

[Chandy1000]

well lets just wait for TOP GEARS to try it and see what they going to say about this beast right here

[iCheckVtec]

who wouldn't buy one? but 360k is a bit too much for me

[nismoracer880]

This car is going to be the king of the Nurburgring.

[ps3thrumpsanDAMthing]

at 300,000+ u cant go wrong lol

lol well there ar
