Hmm.... Not so sure I like the "crying eye" look of the LC, but the rest is done pretty well....

Love the way this car looks! (Especially the agressive spindle grille) I hope it doesn't get too toned down when it goes to production.

It looks good. Closest thing to an SC/Soarer since the demise of the 2000 model. And it's designed by Calty, no less, the folks who designed the original SC.

With all this focus on a hybrid drivetrain I have to wonder if we'll see history repeating (in a good way) with the new Supra chassis and mechanical parts sharing with whatever this LF-LC 2+2 coupe becomes. The designer of the GT86 has already gone on record as stating that the new Supra WON'T be a hybrid with a CVT, so we can only hope.

Given that the original SC400 in 1992 cost just under $39k base msrp, adjusted that is about $61k in today's dollars. I'd expect a starting msrp in the $60k-$70k range. And for that I'd also expect a standard limited slip diff since it's right in IS-F territory and that one now comes with one.
