| LEXUS LFR
Supposed to be a GT3 class car, homologation for road use. https://www.carscoops.com/2024/10/le...ad-going-form/
I dont know if i like it or not. Its a bit too...... penis-y shaped. Too much hood, too long, no rear deck. Looks like SLS proportions which i never liked.
Turboed V8, hopefully it sounds still good but i doubt it with the turbos.
I might have to trade in my ratrolla for this later on if the reviews come out positive. Never first-year production of course (look at how bad all the first year toyota products are doing right now). Or if they want like 300k for it, then they can suck a dick cuz i aint paying 300k for a stinking toyota. my shanghainese family would disown me.

Seeing how LFAs are priced now, I somehow doubt they'll price it at $300k (A new S63 AMG costs more than that already). Probably closer to $500k if you can somehow beat the dealer principals on allocations.
Cool looking car though - maybe OpenRoad Lexus will have it on display where the LFA sat.

Looks great. I love it. Ditto on the $500K+ territory. It will likely appreciate instantly once someone crashes theirs on Nordel Way or Robson Street.

its good for the brand, but I don't understand why it would be so expensive.
They don't have to develop their own carbon fibre loom, like they did for the LFA, or create a brand new V10 from scratch, like the LFA. I assume this is just a parts bin car strapped on what is likely a new TNGA (TOYOTA NEW GLOBAL ARCHITECTURE) ala the ratrolla which is TNGA-L (only shared with the LS, and the Crown)
That v8 is just the same 5.0L 2UR-GSE w/ some turbo charging.

The Revuelto is $750k and it's not limited production so I expect this car to be much higher than $500k. And it'll likely be near impossible to buy, wouldn't be surprised if you have to be selected to buy one like the Ford GT.

If any of you guys watch IMSA or WEC races, the GT3 cars are often of this design, so nothing out of the ordinary. Aston Martin, Mercedes-AMG, BMW etc. They all hold similar designs within this category of vehicle.
