OMG that is a beast! And it looks sleek sexy while doing it. However, this is auto? Sequential?

yes very beautiful

has a supra kind of look to it. i really like it, but lets face it the facts that no one can afford that unless you live in it.

The design reminds me of Audi, Cadillac, and Lotus all mashed together.

Well you can live in a car but you cannot race a house.

like most supercars and up-comming sports cars today, it is a twin clutch sequential that can be driven in full auto mode.

Weak sauce... I'd rather get the R35 Skyline for a lot less.

i don't see whats so bad about sequential shift. vw/audi has done a great job with it in their models and this is the kind of shifting that can't be duplicated with a manual transmission. most of the top racing series don't need to use a clutch like nascar, indy, etc.

lmao !!! true dat i'm with you all the way

It's a GTR damnammet.


EDIT:
I love the looks. 9k redline? That sounds good.

My bad.

The GTR is also a twin clutch sequential that could be drive in full auto

but everbody and their mom has a GTR - I'll take the Lex, I think it replaced the Murcielago as my "dream car."

It really does have the exotic car price to match it's status.

WOW!!! Production limited to 500 units very rare than the gtr
