Talking Lexus LF-A Nurburgring laptime: 7min13sec

http://lexus-talk.com/2009/05/27/lex...mph-top-speed/

it says 7:13 for race car, so I am guessing this one...
but still, they're trying to beat Nissan GT-R so I guess it kinda shows LF-A got some potential.

Might be faster, but costs 3 times as much. And is this thing even street legal like the GTR?
