My guess is that Lexus didn't produce the LF-A to sell them but to increase sales of other Lexus vehicles.

Sent from my ATT Bell Rotary Dial Phone Nope I saw one of these whales at a car meet in Atlanta a while back That's another classic case of lack of style for a high price and get this you couldn't even buy it you had to lease the bitch! Those cars were so ugly and I don't think they even leased the entire run Question what years did they make that pig ? In victory you deserve Champagne In defeat you need it!

Clyde,
All this NSX bashing -- have you forgotten that Lexus made a $350k plus exotic with their LF-A?

Clyde, what exactly happened to the NSX? Did they all catch fire in GA or something? How did their asses get handed to them? Street racing?
I didn't care for them new but like them now. They are actually more engaging to drive than 99% of new cars available.

The 458 is sympatico? I think it's impressive from its flattering angles and perspectives, but the headlights are obnoxious and cheap, then it only gets worse in the cabin with painted plastic bits ... I've seen a Speciale with mega-buck DART stripes and laundry list of carbon cabin trim -- it was quite sumptuous, but a jaw-dropping "cottage by the sea" price tag for an already obsolescent vehicle (though with the cachet of perhaps being the swan song of Ferrari naturally aspirated donks.) Certainly the most appealing view of the 458 to my eye: <Screen Shot 2015-02-25 at 11.35.02 AM.png>
Well, who am I to judge, from the front, I just don't see the 458 as distinct (let alone superior) compared to a (forthcoming) NSX. At least it's not a 612 or a California (gawd awful, both of them, very hard on the eyes and heavy curb weight.) Hard to comprehend how the 599 (brilliant, if you ask me) can exist, proving Pininfarina can do a car in modern language, yet deliver the 612, which to me looks like a second rate attempt from a first year design student.

I agree with both of you, mostly. I think the 328 was too "soft", and the F430 was what the 360 should have been from the start. That said, like Matt (not to put words in his mouth, er, keyboard, er phonepad...), I find the 458 and the 488 to be beautiful, lithe, and tres TRES sexy, like a hot swimsuit model. ;-)

When I saw a 458 for the first time in Tokyo, I actually said "wow". > > Sent from my iPad > > > On Feb 25, 2015, at 11:56 AM, Matt Boyd < ferrari308driver [at] gmail.com> wrote: > > > > We're all different, but I think the 458 (and apparently the 488 since it is very similarly styled) is beautiful from all the angles I've seen it from! :-) > > > > -matt > > '85 308
