View attachment 10913Made this on Photoshop real quick, so it's not great (also posted it to my IG), but it just looks so much better with a Lexus badge. It also just makes more sense.
I agree. This also means Lexus Racing is effectively dead (atleast for now). Had the LFA had the option of a combustion engine and gt3 variant, this could've been avoided.

Probably not the right forum to post, but did anyone else see this? VW dealers are suing VW HQ because of Scout. Now, their reasoning is because they want to sell Scout and Scout is an online shopped vehicle.
BUT the reason I bring it here is because what if Lexus dealers threaten to sue because they DON'T want to sell GR and Century? I wonder if Toyota would actually listen to us then. Just food for thought...

There’s no way TMC would put 2 GT3’s in production at the same time…

It would be the opposite problem. Toyota dealerships may sue Toyota corporate because they already sell GR cars from their dealership, and now suddenly lose that right to Lexus dealerships, or potential standalone GR dealerships. We already saw this happen with Genesis, Lincoln, and Polestar - spoiler alert: the dealerships all won in court or the manufacturers had to pay large sums to settle with them. I think Polestar was the only one to somewhat get away with it because they are now no longer owned by Volvo.

With that track record, you can see why the VW dealerships suing VW corporate for spinning off Scout think they have a good chance of winning in court.

Its only at select dealers to begin with. They have to buy into sell. Its not like they are being shoved gr and century models down people's throats.
