QUOTE(citytale @ Jun 27 2014, 02:48 PM) Hahaha.. Looking back at this comment i think u really have the car to let the car ferment about 50 years more in order to get any returns out of it. Japanese cars never had any resale value unless its a historic race car or made famous by an anime cartoon. Anyway I went and spot the LFA personally and even seated inside to feel the attention-to-detail interior, that car is a lot more awesome than Aventador and the judging by its limited run, LFA will be good for investment too! (Not to mentioned the speedometer also clocks 205miles) The car was originally booked by a tycoon but because of some hiccup he end up not buying it. And also, RM2.2million is just "estimated figure" only subject to tax ya... All i'm liking on the LFA is the engine and exhaust and maybe that fancy robotized meter cluster. Nothing else even the carbon chassis or the Prius drag could excite me. And the buyer would probably looking at the tech rather than looks to buy it. Toyota should have save up and made a 4WD hybrid Supra than this. Or make a 4WD hybrid Soarer if they want to keep the Lexus emblem. |

Crazy leh!!! who cares what FC it does, this is why ferrari got it right..the batteries and electric motor is there just for performance..no electric mode only nonsense the batteries and the V12 work together giving orgasm to the driver QUOTE(Aventador700lp @ Sep 1 2014, 11:44 PM) they always say this..ferrari and porsche spend alot too developing their limited run high tech supercars and they didnt say "we spend alot doods we lose money giving you are very special limited run cars doods..see how good our heart is" ..without the confidence thats why they come out with such marketing..but who can blame them..few hundred thousand dollars for a lexus is very hard to swallow for many haha |

To me, Laferrari is actually not that nice looking. The silhouette looks a lot like Marussia B2. At certain angles it just looks weird. With a Porsche, u know its a Porsche. The only thing Ferrari have left for it these days seems to be the color red. they always say this..ferrari and porsche spend alot too developing their limited run high tech supercars and they didnt say "we spend alot doods we lose money giving you are very special limited run cars doods..see how good our heart is" ..without the confidence thats why they come out with such marketing..but who can blame them..few hundred thousand dollars for a lexus is very hard to swallow for many haha |

QUOTE(PowerSlide @ Sep 2 2014, 01:12 AM) no way and now im gonna argue with you Actually P1 is oversold on some things. Yes its probably the best looking among the current 3, with wings and all. But i wonder why does it even need a charging inlet if it isn't going to make miles with it. I only know that all auto companies try to make some energy efficient or low emmisions ratings to save on taxes. So the conclusion from me seems like the P1 hybrid is like after thought. Why not call it electrical overboost?porsche is a porsche a ferrari is a ferrari..both very successful making fast cars but 918 and laferrari is very different..the same formula but very different..one with a V12(because people still want a V12 ferrari) mate to batteries to exhilarate the experience but still very ferrari which deliver astonishing performance not thinking about environment or how much fuel it can save..porsche as always the engineering the clever brains creating a great car that is the 918..very heavy but still very fast and the complicated electronics only germans can build which is the best? both..which the best looking? not these two that goes to the P1 U know when Top Gear had it and Jeremy was glossing over it, few months later everything seems to went south. Actually when the car was revealed 900hp RWD.... i was already thinking... damn the limit is breached and they has super fancy wing and tires to make it work. Even then its over the top. I doubt anyone with super reflexes could make it work for them. Super cars nowdays are already on cheat mode anyway since the GTR came about. I doubt the P1 could do harm to any of them. Still no one track these 3 side by side properly yet. Oh yeah, i always call Laferrari La FAILrrari, not because of anything but the design that is meh.....

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « because of current F1 rules so ferrari and mclaren will surely build car like this from the start and also the advancement of batteries and electric motor they can build a car based on combustion and electric propulsion and get it to work together..the same goes to porsche with their lemans effort GTR magic piece is the 4wd the electronics that give all the traction and why it's so fast. These 3 have all the advance computers but still they know how to build a drivers car that reward the drivers hard work. The philosophy is different how they build their cars. Whats excite me not the looks but the tech inside it..take the now tech make it better to make the car faster. ferrari..either u love it or hate it |

Cmon, no one talking about koenigsegg & pagani?? These are seriously hypercars. Well, especially Koenigsegg One:1(1 over 1 of power to weight ratio, its a Megacar!). But I think I will still go for the P1, if only I can at least afford it. Back to real talk, guess whats the next 4 door supercar I'm gonna post? 1 guess for 1 person only. |

Porsche Panamera? |
