Really excited about this! Definitely going to trade in my 200t when these release. Was about to jump ship to the germans, but this news is more than enough to keep me in the brand. Looking forward to my 4th Lexus!

A car with 110+ mph trap speed vs the 100mph trap of a 350 is night and day. Completely different galaxy of performance.

They better price it good. Compare to F upgrades we are missing interior upgrades i.e seats, alcantara etc , brakes, tech bits ( i.e launch controls? some journalist say 0-6 in 4.5 seconds..... that's not very impressive) and some exterior bits. If this is going to cost close to a RCF this car wont sell very well or maybe they just have a surplus of f motors they need to get rid of before moving towards smaller motors.
