C&D Lexus LFA vs Ferrari 599 HGTE

Woohoo! LFA beat it by one point. Now, before anyone starts hating... I'm well aware of the 458's superiority. Still... I'd rather have the Lexus because it's not just something you can buy off the showroom.

I'd take the Lexus as well. It somehow makes the ferrari seems like "just another ferrari".

I really don't like the front fascia in white but it can look pretty good in other colors. Love the sound and from what it looks like, it's an incredible driving experience.

I'll take the Ferrari because it is a Ferrari. If i need a Lexus I'll just pull out the 4 door grocery getter out of the garage.

Just wish the LFA had a proper dual clutch transmission.

Would take the LF-A also. Love the instrumental display. It just oozes with technology and cool features..plus it's unique and high reving exhaust!

I would never get a ferrari in white.

I'd take the F-car any day. The Lexus looks way too tryhard, kinda like the Ultimate Aero.

I have come to my final conclusion that you just don't have any taste.

Lambo's can pull off white easily (still prefer yellow/orange/green though) but for some reason I think Ferraris only suit red/yellow/black. Even at that I'm so fussy I prefer all Ferraris in red.

Yep, I do. One is of a white Ferrari and one mentioned something about fussy.

Mad? I don't get mad. Especially on the internet.
