@alexander_the_car_salamander: Plus look at it. It's a garish, disjointed mess, nothing like the F430, Gallardo or Murcielago. I actually think a Gumpert is more attractive. #lexuslfa

@neilgehrke: What's up with that? Look at the space between the body panels throughout the car. It looks as if it was an aftermarket ricer-kit put together by a half-rate body shop one afternoon. #lexuslfa

There is no angle in which this attractive. It just looks bizarre. #lexuslfa

@vwminispeedster, pronounded Si-trow-in: Seriously, glue some of those scoopy things of LF-A to the rear windows and it's virtually identical. #lexuslfa

Can Sir Denton, or one of his loyal minions, please instruct Gawker's crack team of Eastern European web designers to please design a more convenient system with which to view "high-res" images - at least for the sites with lots of galleries like Jalopnik?

@zimdba: If you squint really hard after taking a hit of LSD.

Meh-tastic. I've seldom had the occasion to say this but, I actually like the Toyota much better.

Instead of paying 139 grand to get laughed at or WTF'd everywhere I drive this thing, I'd take the 139 grand, buy a Maserati Gran Turismo which elicits oohs and ahs and approving gawks (and maybe even the occasional offer of sexual favors), and invest the difference in pork belly futures.

@Louis Wang: Touché. Actually, the market for smartphones overall grew fairly significantly since last year. So, yes, all things being equal one would expect growth in HTC's profits. The recession did not have the effect on the smartphone market that my original comment implies. Given that WinMo's market share did…

I dunno. Maybe that huge global recession thingee (which may have or may not have ended) had something to do with the fall in HTC's profits. I know it's a silly idea. Just throwing it out there.

Now all that's missing is a reincarnation of the Nissan Silvia.
