Lexus LFA Versus Hennessey Venom Rev Battle

As far as exhaust sounds go, the LFA ranks up there at the top of the list. That naturally aspirated V10 absolutely screams like few cars do. I’d say it’s one of the best sounding cars in recent memory (right up there with the Carrera GT). That said, the LFA isn’t the fastest thing on [...]
