    Rosso Fuoco for sale by Copley.

    2650 miles and $750k. Hopefully they get it!
    They are selling an LFA with 8k mikes for $875k.

    Is the LFA over priced or the GTO a bargain?

    Well without making judgement on pricing I WOULD much rather have the 599GTO than the LFA regardless of relative pricing

    Same. I don't ''get'' the LFA. Great engine, don't like the cars shape, details...and yes some badge snobbery as well. It's ''too normal'' for it to be worth that amount of money, if that makes sense? i.e. if it was a road going le mans car as they're sort of planning with Toyota, I'd make a lot more sense to me. 900K for a Lexus GT....no thanks.

    Is it very rare or rather was it not legal in some markets. I have it in my UK car but I seem to recall it was not legal in Australia and some other markets perhaps USA?

    Not here, considered too dangerous in the US without a helmet. Those bars can do a lot of damage if struck by an unprotected skull.

    Seats were likely available, but not the four point harnesses.

    No for point harnesses in the US? What’s the rationale there Terry?

    I think those anchor to the roll bar, but not 100% sure.

    Nope, there are GTO's with 4pt harness and no roll bar...I think it's just (old?) legislation in the States that's never been updated for whatever reason.

    Bas- Likely correct and could be related to legislation that was pre-airbag and never updated.

    The GTO sold. I wonder if they got the $750k they were asking.
