We pit Lexus’ first-ever supercar — the 0000 Lexus LFA — against our long-term Nissan GT-R to find out which one is the king of the JDMs. Read the full story here: www.motortrend.com Shot by: Jim Gleason Edited by: Jim Gleason

The 2013 Nissan Pathfinder is out on the floor of COBO Hall in Detroit and it looks far different from the SUV we know as the Pathfinder.

    @Buttnut105 Insurance is ALREADY killing me now lol. With only 1 ticket period (Changing lanes at an intersection) 1K HP GTR will be plenty rewarding DAILY. Knowing I made it happen growing up where and how I did. PLUS being able to take drives to Orlando and not worry about mileage like many of? my clients do. Or even be regulated by their insurance companies with an outragious MAX mileage driven limit! I’m looking forward to track time and the understanding and learning about suspension tuning.

    Can’t wait till the new Acura? NSX gets in on this.
    That’ll be pretty awkward with the NSX being a hybrid and all…
    If only Honda produced the HSV-010…

    @UAL2842 definitely not a supercar, and theres no way it would keep up with either of these machines? anywhere without a crapload of modification. the nsx was meant to keep up with the ferraris of its time, and it was damn good at it. its a rediculously amazing sports/track car, but a mediocre supercar at best…

    January 27th, 2012 at 08:48 | #25

    It doesnt look like they used the launch control on the GTR. Other wise? the GTR would have murked the LFA even greater off the line.

    its like watching vin diesel do “the pacifier”. or like the pathfinder kind of let itself go and has been sitting on the? couch eating doritos and watching jersey shore.

    Disgusting! I have the 2011, and it’s perfect. It’s a girly mom car now. They turned it? into a mini van.

    I knew the engineers at Nissan were going to make the Pathfinder ugly.. For a little while, Nissans were very attractive, so were their Infiniti division, but they have turned Infiniti’s into whales on wheels & it looks like? that’s what they’re planning on doing with the Nissans starting with the Quest, now the Pathfinder.. Why are Japanese automakers determined to make their cars the ugliest things on the road the past few years?
