Im liking both those cars to be honest, especially the Lexus... YUM YUM! I take it the Lexus is a concept?

 

The Zenvo's (odd name) gear stick is a little long :lol: its like changing gear with a broom handle.

No, production starts in December 2010. The LFA is powered by a 4.8L V10 that generates 552 horsepower at 8,700 rpm and 354 lb.-ft. of peak torque at 6,800 rpm. The engine is mated to a six-speed Automated Sequential Gearbox (ASG) with paddle shifters. It is capable of reaching 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds and has a top speed of 202 mph.

 

List price is approximately £250,000.

The lfa revs so fast it needs a digital rev counter as a standard one can't move quick enough.
