Of course there are people willing to get price gouged and financially raped for exclusivity, I'm sure you can get a slightly used GTR for what this will cost new.

The RCF was kind of a flop. I think Lexus needs to move on.

Bagwell, I'm guessing you don't do much driving on the track? It's definitely on the small side.

I'm just happy that they're still investing in it and not writing it off as too often happens with these kinds of cars.

I'm a bit skeptical it will bring in more sales seeing how the sedan/coupe market is shrinking.

Well, not everyone is looking JUST for speed alone. I would buy this over a GTR any day of the week.

I still would have preferred a 4-door IS-F. Perhaps that would have widened appeal and sparked sales over the years.

No. It is barely faster than a standard RCF. Not worth the premium.

Don't see it bringing more sales as standard RCF doesn't sell well in this current market all about SUVs.
