LFA Lexus coming to Cars and Coffee Irvine

I was told by a friend that two LFA Lexus cars will be at the Irvine C&C. Looks like a Nissian GTR.

nicer than the gt-r from the side. the back of the car looks ridiculous.
you can get 3 gt-r's for the same money. would be cool to see one on the street, though.

GTR looks much better in person imo... don't judge it til you see it. But yes, it's way overpriced, lol.

This car looks hideous from the front too - it looks like the hood doesn't fit right and the gaps aren't "Lexus-like". The price is ridiculous.

What a joke. The back looks like a Zonda knock off missing one exhaust pipe (or maybe they are just fake like the Lexus IS-F quad pipes) At this price range the car should at least be attractive (not just an accumulation of "fast and furious" drift car body work, some go fast hardware and electronic handling gizmos). At least the GTR delivers almost all of this for about 1/4 of the price and the two door sedan looks grows on you after awhile. Consider all the other alternatives at this price point in comparison (excluding Porsches, so I'm not accused of being basis). Ferrari, Lambo, Ford GT, Viper, Aston, Audi RS8, even a Z06 Corvette (please forgive me if I forgot anyone). Anyone that buys this car better hope they make very few of them (more like 50 instead of 500) so they have some chance of recouping a fraction of their investment. If I saw one on the road I'd give it a closer look, but I won't waste a tank of gas running up to OC to see one parked.
