Choices are between the Lexus LFA, the all new Audi R8 V10 Plus, and the Dodge Viper ACR?

3,500lbs, 553hp @ 8,700 rpm, 354lb-ft @ 6,800 rpm, top speed 202 mph.

3,600lbs, 610hp @ 8,250 rpm, 413lb-ft @ 6,500 rpm, top speed 205mph.

Wild card: Replace the LFA with the Huracan LP580-2. How does that impact your answer?

Can’t the LFA do it all?

DD: R8

Track: LF-A

Burn: Viper

I really like the Viper, but the R8 is a better car to live with, and the LF-A... is the LF-A!

Replace LFA with Huracan LP580-2. Any changes?

TheHondaBro > Wobbles the Mind

DD R8

Track LFA

Burn Viper

That was easy.

Say the LFA is off the table and replaced with the RWD Huracan. Does that change your answer at all?

Wobbles the Mind > Vítor
02/04/2016 at 19:12

How about I replaced the LFA with the Huracan with RWD, would that change your answer at all?

Wobbles the Mind > TheHondaBro
02/04/2016 at 19:13

Say I switch out the LFA for the Huracan LP580-2, the RWD one, would that change your answer at all?

Daily: LFA (Dat Yamaha tuned V10)

Track: R8 (Only because it’s a Plus)

Burn: Viper (I'm just so eh about it)

TheHondaBro > Wobbles the Mind
02/04/2016 at 19:15

No.

Wobbles the Mind > Logansteno: Bought a VW?
02/04/2016 at 19:15

Right on. What if I traded out the LFA option for the RWD Huracan, does that change the ordering around for you?

PushToStart > Wobbles the Mind
02/04/2016 at 19:16

I’ll do it with the Huracan to mix it up and make it trickier, since I’d be burning the LFA, no question.

DD the Lambo

Track the ACR

Burn the Audi

DD the R8

Track the LF-A

Burn the Viper

The Lambo doesn’t change anything for me. The R8 still looks amazing to me when I see it in real life and the LFA is just such an awesome sounding machine and a piece of precision technology.

The Viper is cool but can’t compete with the R8 for DD or the sound on track of the LFA. The Lambo is a cool looking machine but doesn’t do much for me.

Edit: Oh wait, it was Lambo instead of LFA... yeah, in that case burn the Lambo and track the ACR.

Logansteno: Bought a VW? > Wobbles the Mind
02/04/2016 at 19:17

Oh yeah. Move the R8 to daily, track the ACR, and burn the Lambo. Lamborghini is just so played out IMO. Plus the R8 is the better looking car.

DD: LFA

Track: ACR

Burn: R8

Obviously you’re not going to DD the ACR unless you’re a lunatic, and it’s the most track-oriented so that’s a gimme. The practical choice then would be to DD the R8, but come on, if money was no object would you really choose an R8 over an LFA?

If you swap in the Huracan my answer is the same (only different):

DD: Huracan

Track: ACR

Burn: R8

Hey Julie > TheOnelectronic

Who the hell would burn an LFA and choose a goddamn r8

Track the ACR.

Burn the R8.

DD LFA

Track Viper

Burn Audi

No, replacing the Lexus with a lambo doesn't change my answer besides the fact that I'd be dding a Lambo instead of a Lexus.

Vítor > Wobbles the Mind
02/04/2016 at 19:23

I would maybe replace the R8 with the Huracan, since both have the same engine but I like the Huracan looks and interior better. I have a uncondicional love with the LFA, I would probably just keep reeving the engine all day.

DD: Viper ACR

Track day bro: Viper ACR

burn the R8.

Actually I would take even the non acr models, over the others. And I would daily drive it.

I really like the LF-A but Viper is life. I like the huracan but nothing more than that. And this new R8 is too ugly.

But being serious:

DD: LF-A

Track day bro: Viper ACR

btw the viper picture is not a picture from an acr, it’s a montage.

02/04/2016 at 19:30

DD LFA

Track Viper

Burn Audi (I’m a card carrying member of the RWD supremacy club)

If LF-A is replaced by Huracan, I’d burn the Huracan and DD the Audi

Burn-R8 or Lambo, I drove the last gen R8 v10 and was left disappointed

DD the Lambooooo, Track the Viper, burn the R8. Why? Because GE90Man constantly enforces that the R8 is better; I'd do this just to spite him.

DD the LF-A. I love tht car.
track the dodge. because Manual and wing-of-god.
burn the audi. sorry.

if you replace the LF-A with the lambo, burn the lambo and DD the audi.

Wobbles the Mind > K.D.R
02/04/2016 at 19:38

Damn! Oh well I’m leaving it since everyone has seen it at this point. I thought I found the only ACR picture without the front spoiler. Just as difficult as finding a new R8 picture without a plate in the front grill.

It’s like most lexuses; some really great ideas that came together to form something truly mediocre. As far as I can tell, the best thing it has going for it is sound.

Saracen > Wobbles the Mind
02/04/2016 at 20:33

DD: LF-A. It makes the most glorious noise in all of automotivedom. I would live in the thing.

Track: Viper. I barely fit in the thing, but it’s a big brute with a manual gearbox and it would be a hoot.

Burn: R8. It does nothing for me anymore.

Wildcard:

DD: Huracan. It’s related to the R8 but OMFG that interior is amazing. It’s a friggin jet fighter. If I got to experience that cockpit everyday, life would be great.

Track: Viper

Burn: R8

TheOnelectronic > Wobbles the Mind
02/04/2016 at 20:36

Hard to say. I like Lambos but I’ve always felt like the Huracan just looks too... squished. Like an Aventador that ran into a wall or something.

And if it’s even remotely like the Aventador then it doesn’t really belong on a track, so I guess it would stay unchanged.

MLGCarGuy > Wobbles the Mind
02/04/2016 at 20:42

DD - LFA; it’s not gonna break down on me.

Track - Viper; look at the wing and canards and tell me it’s not a track car.

Burn - Audi; it just doesn’t appeal to me.

I’d keep the Viper and the LFA in the garage and draw keys out of a hat for which one I would drive/ track that day. Burn R8, I always felt it was a little too generic for me.

Wheelerguy > Wobbles the Mind
02/05/2016 at 02:08

DD the Lexus (to spread the word—or the sound, rather), track the Viper (I wanna paste the GT3 RS owners), prolly auction off the R8 (the Lambo will burn by itself, anyway).
