I think the Toyota is just not being given a fair shake, well just because its a Toyota. I remember the same shit back in 1990 when Honda announced the NSX.

I understand some of the points you strive to make but the Zonda C12 was absolutely faster than a Supra. The difference with Honda is that they understood what they needed to make the NSX do: More reliability, faster and a bit cheaper than the 348 (they succeeded in all of those, of course).
This LF-A costs nearly twice the 458 and is made of inferior components (single clutch gearbox that is said to be unresponsive to input?
). It's performance is also a subject of debate when looking at the initial reviews.
If it cost anywhere near the 458 and MP12, i would really not mind the badge. I love the Ford GT.
