I have whole bucket list of cars. I need to get started on that because it is about 50 cars I want to own.

For some reason there are always so many LFAs for sale on cars.com, so you might be in luck.

UPDATE: They're still pushing $400k though, and I'd much rather have an 8C anyway.

id love to own a bunch of them, but i've made up my mind to have one of those 3 for sure. i'm 19 right now, so by the time i get to it, i have a feeling they will be a lot more expensive,.

(but still. dat v10 howl)

there is a new one in the toronto area that is new, but is going for 450k.

as for the 8c...id imagen the LFA would be more reliable. + V10

Brian Silvestro > bob and john

Shit I forgot +V10. And the sound. Now I'm quite conflicted. There goes sleeping tonight.

uuuughhh but the 8C looks so good...

But it's not the best in terms of driving..

they both have single clutch violent awesome transmissions...

Let a Singer 911 be your sleeping pill.

Too bad you can't own a new LFA, you are stuck leasing them.

I'm up to 82!

I'd rather have an Eagle than a Singer

Be like the kid who stole Guy Fieris lambo. Just steal one

8C so you can be a true Petrolhead according to some silly English gentleman. The Lexus is still a Lexus underneath all the body work and the engine. Overpriced for what it is. Singer 911 would be dope though.

Kinja'd!!!

Only this one.

Brian Silvestro > Leadbull
03/05/2014 at 16:26

Exactly that one.

bob and john > Brian Silvestro
03/05/2014 at 16:45

i'm goijgn to catch flack for this, but...i dont think that looks right..
WAIT, LET ME EXPLAIN

the back. the e-type was a true hatch/coupe/whatever, but the back went all the way to the back in one, smooth curve. the eagle....not so much

bob and john > Brian Silvestro
03/05/2014 at 16:45

EXACTLY.

bob and john > Frosted
03/05/2014 at 16:46

that the thing, still still a lexus. meaning its well built, and wont catch fire.

bob and john > ihm96
03/05/2014 at 16:46

lol, nahhh. i have more respect then that

bob and john > Joe_Limon
03/05/2014 at 16:46

wait, what? this is the first i have heard of this....

Frosted > bob and john
03/05/2014 at 16:47

But it's still far more expensive than say a GT-R and not as much fun. I would love the LFA IF it didn't cost so dang much.

bob and john > Frosted
03/05/2014 at 16:48

you see, i would like a GTR. but it doesnt have the WOW factor of the LFA.
then again, alpha does some pretty mean things with it.

Brian Silvestro > bob and john
03/05/2014 at 16:49

*throws flack*

Did you catch it? Because I don't agree with your views.

bob and john > Brian Silvestro
03/05/2014 at 16:51

caught it.

also, i did see a e-type coupe irl. in red. it could be because of all the hype about them, but i was somewhat underwhelmed in the looks department. oh well.
but it was dam elegant, thats for sure.

ohh, lets throw another awesome car in the mix. Eagle, or a re-worked aston martin DB5?

Brian Silvestro > bob and john
03/05/2014 at 16:52

SHIT.

Now you're angering me.

Kinja'd!!!

Joe_Limon > bob and john
03/05/2014 at 16:52

Yup, plus you need to be a celebrity before they will consider leasing you one.

Frosted > bob and john
03/05/2014 at 16:53

For the amount you'd spend on an LFA, you could buy that GT-R and have money to make it have that WOW factor. Plenty of tuners coming around with stupid fast GT-Rs lately.

bob and john > Joe_Limon
03/05/2014 at 16:53

..huh,. then why does the one in canada have it for sale? 450k price....

bob and john > Frosted
03/05/2014 at 16:54

i'm not saying they are bad car, oh god no. but....
they seem a little main stream...i see twice as many GT-rs are i do ferraris or lambos.
yes, its still a rare car, but i dont know.....

Joe_Limon > bob and john
03/05/2014 at 16:55

Not new, lease expired, then they bought out the remainder of the car.

bob and john > Brian Silvestro
03/05/2014 at 16:58

i'm actually laughing pretty hard right now. becuase:
8c
LFA
singer 911
Eagle
reworked DB5

Kinja'd!!!

have fun!

Frosted > bob and john
03/05/2014 at 16:58

I know what you mean, I see them on the highways here in NJ and just gloss over it at this point. I just can't get behind the LFA either though. Sure it's an AMAZING car but it just costs so much. Plus I'd bet the 8c would be more fun to own, right up until it breaks down.

Brian Silvestro > bob and john

bob and john > Frosted
03/05/2014 at 17:00

i know....
all of this points me to the singer. but with the singer, only the TRUE gear head will really appreciate it, and sadly, where i am, there just arent that many.

bob and john > Joe_Limon
03/05/2014 at 17:01

uhh, nope. brand new car. 15km on it.

Brand new car? Model year 2012, sounds like it has been sitting for 2-3 years.

bob and john > Joe_Limon
03/05/2014 at 17:06

eh, to me, brand new means un-used. 15,000 meters on the odo is hardly a used car.

by that logic, the gun that my dad got (SKS, made in the 60s[i think]) but un opened, was a brand new gun. and i stand by that

Joe_Limon > bob and john
03/05/2014 at 17:11

Ok, but then you are subject to $75k markup on a vehiclw that has been sotting around collecting dust/finger smudges from people visiting the dealership for the past few years.

bob and john > Joe_Limon
03/05/2014 at 17:11

true...
but LFA......
