Andy665 0 Posted July 22, 2010 Managed to get out in one of these today, no way was I being allowed to drive but being a passenger was quite enough, never heard a noise like it. Shame I was not allowed to take pictures but cameras are banned at the Toyota Technical Centre Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted July 23, 2010 They do absolutely nothing for me I have to say. For the money, there are countless other cars I'd rather own! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy665 0 Posted July 23, 2010 Jim - I do think that they are massively over-priced in relation to the competition but the quality is astonishing, I'd suggest that attention to detail is up there with the Veyron. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted July 23, 2010 attention to detail is up there with the Veyron. And so is the price, it seems. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted July 23, 2010 That's the one with the Yamaha V10 isn't it? I read it revs from idle to something like 9000rpm ridiculously fast, so fast in fact, it has to have a special digital tacho as normal ones can't keep up :lol: Don't care for the car personally, but what an engine :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy665 0 Posted July 23, 2010 Kev - I think the engine is the real special part of the car - build quality is awesome but its so efficient its almost German - very clinical and not any real character. I was passed by an Alfa 8C Competizione on the M6 on my way to Manchester airport yesterday morning - a fair bit slower and less well made than the Lexus but I would have that in preference every time - a car with real soul and character Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
