EVO magazine picks the LFA over the Ferrari, below is a quote from the article.
"What marks out the LFA for particular praise is its bravery and originality; for Lexus to create such a car from scratch, with no evolutionary engineering or existing bias from which to work, is a remarkable achievement. Innovative, extreme, immaculately executed and exquisite to drive, it’s the greatest high-performance car Japan has ever produced.

Get hung up on the badge and you’ll be blind to its magic. Revel in its rarity, its rare abilities and the fact we’re unlikely to see its like again and you’ll understand why the LFA is one of the greats, and why this test ends with three unexpected, hard-won and thoroughly deserved words: Lexus beats Ferrari."

Although the LFA won EVO did criticize the gearbox saying "... the GTO's light-switch-quick up and down shifts leave the Lexus' box breathless... it can be harsh and never has the refinement of the Ferrari. Given it's mated to an engine with a throttle so sharp and precise you could perform surgical procedures with it, that's a shame..." All in all a great comparison between two excellent vehicles and worth a read no matter what your opinion, the PDF is available from the source link.
