If this thing was priced at $100k, it would be much easier to overlook its other failings. However, regardless of what performance it might be capable of, this car is a bomb. The only good that could come from this dud is if Toyota uses some of its technology to build a true GT-R competitor.

Every time I look at it, it becomes uglier. It's really like some kind of elephant man monstrosity of a car.

I don't understand who Toyota/Lexus is marketing this to, especially at that price. You could buy TWO McLaren MP4-12Cs for the price of the Lexus and get a faster car with more technology and a real racing pedigree. Anyone who buys the Lexus over the McLaren (or any number of other cars) is foolish, imo.
