lexus LFA way too overpriced?

so i was driving to school and seen a dark grey lfa fly pass me and at first i thought "man that a nice looking car in the back" then it came to me why would you pay 300000+ for a lexus think of what you can do with that money and it makes it worse that the lfa just barely beat the gtr

so would you buy a lfa or what would you do with 300000$?

I would pay $$$$$$ for a LFA.

IMO I would go for the LFA than a Ferarri or a Lambo.

If the cheapest car in the world was also the fastest and best handling, people would still shell out $300,000 just to show that they can afford the car. As Shrek would say," I think someone is compensating."

It's very hard to say it's overpriced when people are buying it as is.
