Any experts here can explain that?

I cant really comment either, but i bought mine for the look (which it gets) and even though it may not say BREMBO along the side, it still looks great and stops very effectively.... !!

It is LFA Nurburging edition crashed outside the Ring, head on collision with a bimmer on B road,
The bimmer driver still alive while the supercar LFA test driver die,

I can't believe a such CF intensive car has such poor protection than a standard bimmer?

My Ride: '08 530i Luxury LCI

Who knows, whether the Lexus driver was killed by a heart attack or a sudden black out that caused this accident, remember he's already 67 years old. The Lexus' cabin was intact after the collision, door can still open.
