Yeah they've been talking/working on this thing for how long now? 2-2.5 more years before a production model hits a dealership? That is loooooooooooong time.

Lets just hope it out performs the LS-F. It would be a shame to have the Halo car beaten by an appliance maker....

You meant LF-A. LS is a 4-dr sedan and I doubt they'll make an F version of it. LF-A is the new Lexus supercar.

Front engine may be fine for the next NSX, but 2+2?
