As if the only factor behind a super car are the numbers.

I can only imagine the driving thrill and experience in the LFA is much superior to the GTR. As much as I can respect the GTR's amazing performance envelope, every time I have ridden in one it felt undramatic and even a bit boring from the passenger seat. I believe this is a somewhat similar example to the 370z vs. Cayman S comparison: the 370z may hit the same or similar performance numbers but the Cayman is exquisitely refined and tactile while providing those numbers.
