Pricing figures aren't official yet. Sounds like it's going to be about 350K.
Definitely too much money for the car, but this does serve to shut the people up who were convinced it was never happening. Well, they built it - a little disappointing, but in the end, they did really, finally build it.

^ What about the NSX-R GT?
Does it really matter what brand it is? As long as the car is up to the quality(interior/exterior), performance and exclusivity it can be priced at that point. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDsXsdNgov0

Look at the Volkswagen Phaeton. For what it was, it was a fantastic car. It was well built, well appointed and reasonably priced for it's competition. Unfortunately it sold poorly, largely due to the fact that it was a Volkswagen and not an Audi, BMW, or Benz.
That said, I have no doubt that Lexus will easily sell all 500 units of this car.
