And a Lexus LFA with a few upgrades wouldn't? Have you ever read in detail the engineering, technology, materials, etc that goes into making the Lexus LFA?

It's not just about "my car gets from point A to B be quicker so I win" in terms of what renders a particular automobile exciting, admirable, etc.

People make old POS Civic hatches ran quicker than 100K+ cars all day long. Still I’m sure the 100K cars (beaten by the Civic hatch) have many other attributes which make them far more desirable own, drive, etc.

really gets down to what a person wants versus function versus cost. I'm more a function versus price point person so I'd most likely not buy a Loyota. Nice commercial though, thanks for posting.

so LFA, or:

Either a 599 GTB, 458 Italia, two F430's, or my personal favorite...a 458 Italia and a GT-R with still around $80k to take care of TTL and Insurance for a year or so.

Bottom line though, if you are considering a lexus with that pricetag, you probably aren't going to have to compromise much as far as what's in your garage, so the price is almost irrelevant. I doubt whomever is buying these can just barely squeak by the payments and buying this doesn't limit what else they are going to get

The car already cost $400K+, How many more upgrades it would need?...
