I'd bet $150,000 this car will never come to fruition.

This looks like the Toyota GR GT3 which at some point was swapped badges to be a Lexus. It's a track-only car, not a road legal vehicle and was seemingly designed to be an RC-F motorsport replacement.

Last year at the Lexus Driving School Scott Pruett revealed that the LFR would be powered by a 4.0T v8 840 HP engine + additional motors

That's cute but it has no bearing on this particular vehicle going into production as something you can physically buy.

Additional motors? I pray not. That would taint the car.

Playing the video without watching the car... sounds like most of the trucks where I live.
