With how wet Vancouver is, if they daily, they will notice lack of traction every time they try to add some gas to turn or pass
ISF is 450hp on 255 rear… same as bic baws 230hp E46 330ci
Add 2008 Toyota traction control that cut power for seconds with any spin

Why buy an LFA when you can get a Miata for 8k? It can't possibly be 12,000 times the driving experience.

LFA and Miata both have 4 wheels TROLOLOLOL.
but seriously, there was a reason why the LFA never sold well. Besides the engine noise, if you take that out of the picture what do you have left? a very expensive car UGLY car that isn't very fast, and has a shitty transmission.
Given that its contemporaries like the 458 had gorgeous looks, beautiful handling, intoxicating sound, and the same price tag. no fucking shit they sat unloved for years and years.
it only looks good now, when everything is garbage, we look back and see this as something special.
P.s Supra was like that too if I recall. Same with most Toyota products

Only a real fucking retard would buy one over a 911…… and then wrap it the same color as a 25k Corolla….. and then add gold wheels because fuck you, I go full retard

Being the unofficial translator for Badhobz, what he's trying to say is a 911 will soon be added to his collection.
Edit: I mean an overpriced Beetle.

LFA is ugly and slow?
Those thoughts have never entered my mind. I've seen it going full chat a few times on the track and a change of pants was necessary after.
It does sound like it would be crazy expensive to do any repairs though.

Biggest issue in US is really the badge.
If it were a department store, it would be Sears/Macy.
In a world of $400/mo M340i and $599 Lucid
Lexus says you’re conservative/unfashionable … or an OC Kevin Nguyen who’s not social enough to hang in Santa Monica at best.

And the 1999 civic guy says you're all wasting your money because he invested it into bonds and made 20 dollars last year.
Everyone has to justify their actions somehow by punching everything else down.
That's why the Golf R is the best car ever made.

I do find every choice/whatever is just extra polarized south of the border

458 is more like high 200s

That's the price now. I assume Hobz meant new, and I was talking about maintenance, but you make a good point. The LFA has appreciated a heck of a lot more than the 458 has.
