If you tell a joke, and then proceed to explain to your audience afterward why the joke is funny, then it might not be a good joke.
If you park the LFA next to a Ferrari 599 you will have to explain why the LFA deserves to be in the same category/class as the Ferrari. A Porsche Carrera GT or McLaren F1, looks good in pictures and in front of you, no explanation necessary.
The craftsmanship, attention to detail on the LFA (like the air intake behind the doors, the creases, etc..) is exquisite but the styling eludes me even after seeing it in person.
Hopefully it makes more Cars and Coffee appearance in Irvine so it can grow on me.

Let me guess, you have NOT seen one? That's what I thought. 
If we went together to see one in person and you still said that, I'd pay you a pretty penny.

Naruse was Toyota's lead test driver and had been with Toyota since 1963. He tested and developed numerous Toyota cars such as the 2000GT all the way back in 1967, not just some millionaire who just bought an Enzo or Carrerea GT and crashed.
