Don't take it personally, but this is the kind of bullshit that has lead to the demise of real hardcore sportscars.
"omg, I'm paying 400k for a supercar, it better have a midget opening the hood, GPS, massaging seats, an espresso maker, 4 seats, an english wheel and a pink elephant in the trunk. Weight? What's that?"
If anyone feels robbed if their LFA has a hood prop rod, perhaps they should've bought an LS in the first place.
Look at this Civic!!!

I get what your are saying Zorro but it's not a fair comparison.
The F40 and Enzo have huge bonnet. Hence the rod.
LFA is probably one of the most fancy gizmo exotics out there. If there is an exotic with massage seat and espresso maker, it'd be a Lexus.

I see your point and actually sort of agree with it, the LFA isn't a supercar like the F40 or the CGT were.
Still, market demand for shitty gizmos has lead to engineers having no idea what simplicity in design even means any more. A top of the line sportscar with air-con, GPS and that your grandma can drive? That stuff makes no sense to me.
