Sounds like a super car. Sounds very pricey.

Maybe one day I will be able to obtain one of these. It took me 16 years to get one of the coupes that I have now.

Seems pretty sleek and refinished. I would like to know more details on the power pant and if available in an 5/6 speed manual.

Yes sir! Its been posted over in the Car Chat Forum yesterday. I thought i was sharing something new during the day, turns out someone shared the news already in the AM. So glad there are other enthusiast who are eager to share exciting news about Lexus/Toyota when it becomes available.

Cant wait to see these on the road so glad they are bringing back the SC badge!!!

It will be mass produced but it won't be anywhere near the price range of the original SC even adjusted for inflation. The RC series appears to be taking up that segment of the market. I'm interested to see how well a 10-speed automatic transmission will hold up under not only the rumored base 500hp but near double that rating after the inevitable tuning someone will do.
