Price is ok. It just is a waste to not have a TTV8 LF-1 CUV or Landcruiser SE with this TT V8. Also, the good thing is this car exist. I hope it is good in its own way, but it is no LFA, so it better not be called that. And given the Lexus F brand, it add nothing to Lexus being badged a Lexus instead of Toyota. It would be better if it a Lexus of course.

To me it feels like Toyota still reserves the best for themselves, treating us (Lexus fans) as an afterthought. I haven't lost all hope just yet but if they keep making moves like this......I might seriously consider switching brands.
A Toyota branded supercar sounds like meh.
Depends on how you define the best...
The Lexus Electrified Sports supercar will definitely be quicker in a straight line.
The LC-F prototype that weighed almost 2 tons and has "only" 650PS was rumored to do the Ring in 7min10s, I think the GR GT will be at least as quick as the AMG GT Black Series.

I mean not just because this car has a Toyota badge on the front, I think it’s more about the fact that this car was originally planned to be a Lexus, and now suddenly it’s been changed to GR. This is hard for many to accept. Also, many Lexus fans here have been following rumors/news about this car and eagerly awaiting its release as LFA successor for last 3-4 years.

Yeah, no way this will only cost 130k USD. That's not happening.

These supercars have decades of legacy and thus a strong customer base. The last Toyota branded supercar was the 2000GT.
If they sell it as a Lexus, in the worst case scenario they get current RC-F TE, LC500, and LFA owners as returning customers, and plenty of LX owners who want to add a sports car too. Asian owners who have a LM as well.
Outside of Japan, how many Toyota VIP customers are there?
cannot tell if its the gtr to gt coupe.
Would make sense if this is their target
