That is the big misconception. Most of the LFA owners are regular people who never owned exotics every before in their lives.

The guy who was featured taking delivery of his black LFA on the WGN news in Chicago said he never had owned a supercar in his life and this was his first time buying one.

Rest is so meh? The chassis, suspension and handling dynamics of the LFA have proven to be atleast as good as its engine, if not better. There are not many cars that can pull 1.5 g lateral acceleration on the VBOX in corners with street daily driven tires without electronic aids like side-to-side torque vectoring differential. I could imagine what it would be like on the track with R compound tires on LFA. Also, only Enzo and Porsche Carrera GT used similarly extensive carbon fiber on them.

I personally love the styling and proportions of the car.
