I understand its a great driver, but there have been no lap times released yet, so we can't really compare it to much. And regardless of its lap time, Lexus doesn't have the prestige (or the styling) to release a car that costs that much!

Even if it makes faster laps than the ZR1 Vette or the ACR Viper, it would have to really blow it out of the water to be worth 3x the price. 375k wouldn't seem worth it for a car thats maybe a second or two faster.

And the cars in its actual price range are exotic super/hyper cars! Many of them the legacy and prestige of decades of race history, and the styling to match.

I just can't imagine the person who would show up to an event and park their ugly lexus that looks like the bastard child of Supra, an R8 and a Lancer, next to a bunch of high end ferraris and lamborghinis and feel justified that they payed the same price.
