    Something about shaving a dog's butt and teaching him to walk backward. How does that go?

    From here on out, the LFA is the Shaved Dog's Butt to me. #lexuslfa

    the big question is this - will PMY be the PM color of choice A YEAR FROM NOW when they actually start BUILDING these cars? #lexuslfa

    @Jeb_Hoge: You and me both. I don't know whether it's an $80k affordable supercar or a $300k exotic. I think all the alpha naming has messed me up, confusing this thing with the IS-F. #lexuslfa

    @Ash78 isn't really gone, but sorta is: I keep wanting to call it the FSA, but that's Flex Spending Account and it maxes out at $5K. There's a Volvo 242GT for sale near here that I'd rather have. #lexuslfa

    That's some awful awful sound editing. Near the 1:20 mark, the car is cruising, but they inserted a soundtrack of the engine revving really high and changing gears twice. WTF!? #lexuslfa

    That sound makes me smile.

    Toyota, do not listen to the naysayers. Listen to me. You have crafted a true supercar; for that I salute you. Above a certain level of the fantastic, the differences are academic. 550 hp is a poor, soulless definition of the potential to make vision blur and thump open the valves of the heart on each beat.

    But mere control over this potential pales compared to a connection that could transfer even a taste of this energy through our fingertips. We do not want command and obedience, we want to capture the scream of 9000RPM with every sense and be able to call it back at any time.

    Any car is ultimately defined by the experience. You have applied this lesson well in your legendary dealership experience. Give us the same focus and intensity, give us passion in your bread and butter, day to day, and we will adore you.

    It's nice, but this is a $100-150K tops car. It just doesn't have the cache that marques like Ferarri or Lamborghini have. You can get a Murcielago for $100K less. You can get a Ford GT for 250K less... Or you can get this overblown dishwasher from Toyota.

    For that kind of change, it better not use gasoline.

    TBH, though, it would be interesting to see when this car outperforms Ferraris. IF it does. #lexuslfa

    In keeping with the spirit of it's supercar "brethren" (if we're indeed calling it a supercar) perhaps Lexus is onto something with the acronym thing:

    I love the looks of this car. I realize why a lot of people would hate on it, but come on, it's a supercar. If it didn't look ridiculous, it would never be able to join the ranks of the true supercars. My current favorite supercar is a Zonda, and look at that thing. I love its hideousness for what it is, and the same goes for this beast. I can't seem to get enough of this thing! #lexuslfa

    Ugly front, ugly rear, 3 exhaust exits (we bashed another car for that before, you may remember this), not-too-impressive-for-the-price performance... Blah. I don't care how it sounds, it just doesn't justify the cost. For $400,000 I could buy a faster Lamborghini and say "I have a Lamborghini" instead of "I have a Lexus, but it's not what you think!" #lexuslfa

    Wow. The design Easter Egg is a grid made out of the Lexus "L" logo and slapped under the taillights? For shame, Toyolex; for shame. $400K should buy a lot more class and understated l'homage than what your peers have offered for less. See Ford GT, Ferrari, et al. #lexuslfa
