They have to replace the ECU. I would avoid Lexus at all if possible. I hear of some people going third party to "reprogram" the ECU somehow.
That's one of the reasons why I have 3 master keys. I keep one with me, one inside the house (in case someone needs it), and the other one inside a safe (as a last resort backup).

This may sound stupid but if you do end up having to pay that much, maybe you can use the money to buy a SmartKey system off a junked Prius or Lex instead and add a start-button to your car so at least you don't feel like you wasted your money
I'd love a smartkey lex...
