as per Autoblog that I just read a few minutes ago. Horrible situation.

No offense, but I do see the LFA value increasing over the next few years now that the head test driver is no longer with us.

My prayers/sorrows are with his family and all associated.

 

This is sad news. My prayers go out to his family and friends. He will always be remembered threw the LFA.

 

Chief test driver, not designer; RIP

 

Our prayers are with his family and friends, may he RIP...

 

Too bad!!!

 

Please explain how the death of this gentleman will increase the value of the car. You're comparing this to a work of art where the artist passing increases the value of the work.
Too many people contributed to the LFA for that to happen plus this is a car. Not a work of art.

On another note.....very interesting the LFA is not even out yet and they are already making special models to pilfer the pocket books of the vain and insane. I wonder if the special edition models are part of the 500 production run or an addition to those.

 

Wow.. RIP to the driver.. The BMW driver also Survived which is great to hear..

Mike

 

Oh man. So sorry to hear. Hate to see this happen to anyone. I truly hope he didnt feel a thing. Only thing to make this worse is if he suffered before he let go. My condolences go out to all involved.

 

Terrible, wow.

 

Thats terrible. PRayers for the family.

 

sorry to hear that, RIP......I didn't believe it at first but this post just confirmed it...

 

horrible news, my condolences go out to his family and friends.

 

Definitely a tragic situation. I found 2 pics of the crash, and yes there is a website just for crashed exotic cars. Hiromu Naruse will be missed, he also developed the all time great Toyota 2000GT.

 

that looks like a head-on collision on a narrow road. RIP.

 

My guess is heart attack or stroke... That impact looks very survivable as evidenced by the BMW driver/passenger
