Lexus Fanatic
So excited to see this project finally turn into a car. Seems like they have put together a nice package. I really like the range of the power plants. Great job Lexus for not only meeting , but exceeding your goals. This new car is going to make a splash

Salivating!
That grill looks monstrous, but it can hopefully be tamed that with some paint, and/or the right license plate.
Go Lexus!

Apparently MotorTrend copied this from an Australian website motoring.com.au and did a direct currency conversion from AUD to USD.
See here :

What Motortrend forgot is that Australian car prices are jacked up compared to an equivalent US car even after taking into account currency exchange rates.
For example, in that same Australian article, the Aussie Lexus IS-F is mentioned to cost $126,300 Australian dollars. That's $116,246 US dollars, which is far higher than what the US version retails for.
False Alarm Folks! Lexus is too smart to price itself out of the market.

Hopefully the $100k price isn't true since that would make absolutely no sense. RC F will compete against the M4. Lexus LFLC will be the car that likely pushes into six figures.

The only thing is if the GS F and RC F debuts the same time it would be exciting but also possibly making people chose between the two.
