You know....I've been thinking about this more than I wanted to...

Lexus (Toyota) may simply be trying to built that unreachable halo car that puts them on the map...And makes everything else underneath it look good...ala Bugatti Veyron. However...IF that was the goal, they failed miserably in the performance dept. This car is not exciting, it promises performance of last year with a design from another dimension, at a price of the moon....

I can think of only 4 off the top of my head: CTS-V, Z06, ZR1, R8. Each because they excell in their respective categories, are incredibly appealing, and are a relative bargain, $$-wise.
