Disappointed in which one? The Lexus concept or the GR-GT3?

It looks like the official reveal has been pushed to the Tokyo Auto Salon 2027 due to a structural defect in the aluminum base frame joint. As a result, production has been delayed by a full year. Fantastic just what we needed!

Get it right vs get it fast.

This bad boy will likely be in the $500k range putting it in Ferrari, Lamborghini, and McLaren supercar territory. If it can deliver 80% of their performance and retain 100% Lexus reliability... it's a winner in most circles.

I don’t think Lexus will make the mistake of pricing this car above the LFA. When you look at the LFA’s manufacturing process, it’s truly mind-blowing — and it quickly becomes clear why that car ended up costing so much.

My guess is this new model will start around $180K–$210K, and top out near $250K fully loaded.

Here is a summary of what’s happening across Toyota’s performance and luxury divisions:

👇
  1. Century is being positioned as a new ultra-luxury marque above Lexus, serving as Toyota’s top-tier brand.
  2. GR (Gazoo Racing) is being spun off as its own dedicated performance brand, encompassing all high-performance vehicles.
  3. The upcoming super car will belong to the GR brand, not Lexus, but will still be sold through Lexus dealerships.
  4. Lexus “F performance division is being discontinued, though F Sport packages will continue as appearance and sport handling trims within the regular Lexus lineup.
  5. Lexus at some point in the future will also add a new grand touring coupe to its lineup which will be a replacement for the LC/RC models, drawing design inspiration from The Lexus Sport Concept, which debuted at The Quail, in Carmel, California.
  6. The new GR super car will be reveled on Dec 5th and a full reveal at 2026 Tokyo Auto Saloon

GR GT Discussion
So I assume we've all seen the GR GT by now. I forgot to post this here, for anyone who hasn't watched this. I had a chat with a fellow enthusiast who owned 2 LC500's and has been eagerly waiting for the unveil of the LFR - now GR GT. We discuss several topics on the upcoming model, including pricing, brand strategy and more. Enjoy!

It’s not a successor to the LFA. It is a distinct vehicle born from racing as the GR GT3 will compete worldwide technically replacing the RC F’s role.

In a world where coupes die, it’s great to see it and I can’t wait to share more.
