Yes, except it was originally $375k! To quote Jeremy Clarkson when talking about the RC-F, "The LFA is so good, that not even the people who made it, know how to make it again."

You have to admit, the V10 exhaust note is glorious.

Oh how I miss TG.


Yeah the LFA sounds like an Indy car. It's engineered well too. I would take a GT3/GT2 - either model in regular or RS trim - over that any day though.......and twice on Sunday.

Haha. Just an auto enthusiast admiring an automobile.

If I had the money to buy an LFA, which I don't of course, I still can't see me in one. Too many other great cars on my list for the price.

I noticed that too, promising indeed! Let's hope they keep the ugly diamond pattern off the true M car, too.

It feels like a picture of that test mule is posted in this thread on every other page or so. It's been said that it is an earlier mule missing more current pieces, i.e. the super popular grill that everyone wants.

The i4 will likely look a lot more like this concept than regular 4 Series.

Who are these people that waste their times creating renders they know for certain will not look like the car!

I, for one, love the new grille and the fact that that the M3 will finally be differentiated from the base models.

The grill on the concept looks much better.

I cannot wait to see the big grill. I think it will look amazing. I am waiting for the M4 as it will blow away the F82 in looks and performance. F80 did look much better than F82, but I think the G82 will be one incredible machine.

Big grill or go home yo. .

I want this big grille G80 to debut so the last few holdouts can get over it and we can move onto the other aspects of this car. The sooner, the better. I'm excited to see what the new interior and exterior colors actually look like.
