Someone posted a new video clip from this episode of The Price Is Right, so just doing a little flashback.
This is Wendy Hamill who made her EXTREME PAINFUL "SPELLING BEE" BAILOUT on "TPiR: S48 Dream Car Week - Day 3" since 2/19/2020! (THAT WAS AN EXTREME "OOF" FOR WENDY HAMILL ON WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 2020.)

Reasons 1+2 "I miss it because of its engine and feel" and "The iconic 2UR V8 and it's sound"
Reasons 3+4 "it might be the last year" and "it will hold value if its the last year"
Reason 5 "always wanted a convertible"
I keep going back to Lexus waiting til 2027 to announce 10 year edition as a final and kill it in the NA market. I don't think they're going to send it off in the US without a "final" version that all the others F have received (sans GS-F unless you consider 10th anniversary edition to fill that slot)
