Tis expensive, for what is essentially a Toyota. Mind you, the Insignia VXR is expensive for a Vauxhall lol

Does look very very very nice though. Surprisingly fast round the track

I actually liked it, from what details they gave of the engine it sounds a very very fancy bit of work. 4.8 V10, size of a v8 and weight of a v6 iirc?

Nice bit of engineering, looked the part!

Back end does look quite RX-8ish with those large vents

Can see where the new G8 Celica/Toyobaru has taken its styling hints from

I thought it was immense. Those mirrors that chanel air into the intakes rock. lol

The thing that annoyed me was TG being it's typical self. It's a £340K Lexus V10 super car blah blah. Yes, but Lexus are part of Toyota and to most people with an interest in cars this is the next generation Supra with a different name and badge.

Hammond was rattling on as if 'Lexus' have never made a sports car before.
It's a well known fact that the new Supra was to be badged as a Lexus. A mistake IMO. Glad Nissan haven't done the same with their GTR and Z's. :)

didnt like it and the prioce tag is just plain silly - like the man said - at the end of the day its just a lexus - which is basically a Toyota.

Will go down well with the arabs I guess...

Prefer the Nissan GTR - when I saw it 1st I thought it was lol

A Nissan GTR is a datsun

A Ferrari is a Fiat

A Vauxhall VXR is .... well, a vauxhall lol

A Lexus is a Toyota

Meh.
