The black LFA (#026) now delivered in Chicago.


The delivery news was so big in the suburbs of Chicago that it made it to the WGN news on TV. Looks just stunning in black:

LOL. Whenever I find something interesting regarding the car, I put it up on this thread since there seems to be some interest on this forum. Why keep it to myself?? Haha..

Somehow this car simply isn't as striking in photos as a Ferrari or Lambo or Carrera GT is.

Maybe its just the photos

It resembles Toyota's new sports car concept more than a supercar.

^ no I feel the same way as him. The looks aren't as striking as other super-cars. Maybe It's because it is in silver? But it doesn't matter as soon as you hit the pedal to the floor!

I can see what Rox is saying. It's not the car's fault though, and it really doesn't go against it, it just has very traditional proportions with minimal fender flare and nothing unique in terms of brightwork/street graphics. It's very traditional looking.

Exactly, I'm not hating on the LF-A...I think it looks cool, just not 458 Italia or Gallardo cool or CGT cool.

And no bias...I also firmly believe the Porsche 911, which I adore...is quite an ugly toad-like car...it simply isn't as visually tantalizing as a Ferrari, Aston Martin, Lambo etc...yet competes with at least the V8 Vantage. Yes I know its performance is out of this world! I'm just reffering to the WHOLE package...performance, looks, brand...how it makes you feel...

I have no doubt LF-A feels good though, after reading all this -- I have no doubt. Doesn't excite the senses brand wise and with its ext body work...but no doubt that engine is heavenly!

So it does have a lot going for it.


Now if only Porsche could make the 911 not ugly!!!! OR if Audi could make the R8 RWD, or if Porsche could make an R8 like car...mid-engine, broad proportions and flowing lines.

If only!!!!

I call bullshit. That's a press car. It's being "given" to her on a reality show. It's fake.

Another retarded statement from a 335 owner.

BMW doesn't have and has never had a car that is even in the remote ballpark of the LF A.

And I've got a Lexus that will drive circles around and is far more entertaining than your 335 champ.
