Spy VIDEO: Lexus LF-A sounds as mean as it looks

http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/22/s...n-as-it-looks/

With the recent spate of spy shots and the announcement that Lexus would be would be campaigning the LF-A at the 24 Hours of Nurburgring race, it was just a matter of time before we were afforded the opportunity to see the Lexus supercar in action. The short video after the jump gives us a couple fly-bys of the LF-A blowing down a straight expanse of tarmac and ends with the camo'd mule pulling into the pits with a few squeaks from the race-ready brakes. The sound of the 500-hp, 5.0-liter V10 shouldn't be missed, so hit the jump for the video.

SOUNDS AMAZING...

Sounds great, but Lexus will FOR SURE tone it down....

Not to fond of the looks as of now though.

Yummy 4.8L V10 552hp 9,000rpm... from most of the more credible sources I've found.
Can they go and make it for christ sake, the car looks and sounds great, all it needs is to go into production.
