Don't blame Lexus of America because all japanese cars are like that. If you wanna blame, blame the import duty and taxes on import cars. Who doesn't want a new NSX for 70k?

If you are referring to Skyline GT-R, for V Spec, brand new, only $95500.

2000' brand new Skyline GTR R34 VSPEC2 in Japan would run you close to 46K. Even less if you pick it up from Dubai, UAE. However, one way or another you will end up at MotoRex who is the ONLY facility in the US that can make your car "legal" for the US roads. Their prices are ridiculous and if you bring them a nice R34 for half what they charge, they will rack you up a bill that will either way come to 90K. If you wanna play, you will have to pay.......
