In May 2010, "Motor Trend" conducted a track test comparison between the Lexus LFA and Nissan GT-R. The LFA had a statistical advantage in the test, as it was over lighter than the Nissan GT-R, and put down 60 wheel horsepower more when both cars were tested on a dyno. However, the Nissan GT-R came with stickier high-grip tyres, and also offered a launch control system and AWD. In acceleration tests, Lexus had not given permission to "Motor Trend" to use the in-built launch control system for the LFA, resulting in a 3.8 seconds 0−60 mph (97 km/h) time (versus 3.5 seconds for the Nissan GT-R). However, The Lexus LFA achieved 0−100 mph 0.4 seconds quicker, and the LFA was travelling faster at the mile trap with a time of 11.8 seconds (versus 11.9 for the Nissan GT-R).
