I think a V8 with 350 to 400hp would have made it more affordable. It looks a little big (aka heavy). I smell $70k GTR-level.

Maybe a definite contender to "the car after my S". o.O

I'm not sure Toyota's gonna have a 'GT-R fighter'. Rumors are that the LF-A will be well into the $100k's, and the possible Toyota sports car will be directed more towards the Z market. BTW, rumors also suggest the LF-A is shooting for a weight of 2800 lbs using lots of lightweight mat'ls. It will be no joke.

Personally, I'd love to see a turbo six or a high-revving small V8 if they ever release a new 'Supra', like the FT-HS

From this angle it looks more like a 350Z...

...and a new bat mobile in this one, but I'd still take one.

It's actually a 13 forward gears and 5 reverse gears. Plus it auto parks and auto lubes your ass for gay encounters.

Lee must have a lot of "pull" at Lexus to get that auto lube put in.

the last car lexus installed the "lube-ur-anus" on, it would usually squirt too much, leaving it all over. over time it would dry out and crust up clogging the nozzle, causing too little, very painful. i hope they get the bugs worked out with this one... i ain't spending $100k to have a dry ass after a few months... i disd hear they were throwing in free lube top offs with oil changes...
