So LFR or GR, Can’t they just tell us already?😮‍💨

 

[Gor134]

What if it's both?

A case of the NSX.. where it's marketed as an Acura in the US and Honda the rest of the world.

Perhaps this will be Lexus LFR in the US, and Toyota GR GT for the rest of the world?

It seems they are testing the "civilized" version first and follow up with the track edition later in its life cycle.

They should attempt a Nurburgring time soon. Anything slower than 7 min will be a failure.

This thing looks too good to be badged as a Toyota.

Per r/spotted on Reddit, credit to u/Viper287, the GR GT has been spotted in Colorado with the AMG GT R. Time for some high altitude testing.

It was already at Pikes Peak as well, you can see the video that @usb_isf spotted there.

Can’t help but wonder...this prototype’s been caught by Carscoops since last year, so is this pretty much the final design already? Or are we still looking at a bunch of fake panels? The most frustrating part? We still have no damn clue which brand this thing is it even gonna be. That alone is enough to drive me nuts.

Believe the prototype by Carscoops was using a lot of non-street parts (fenders, windows, etc) on the production model still for testing. I think this prototype is still using some of the race car's parts, like that front fender but is closer to production body.

The proportions are so exotic I love it.

This is going to be a really hot take, but I was never a fan of the LFA because it looked really slab-sided and narrow. This GR GT on the other hand looks low and wide.

Even with the camo, this car looks so clearly LFA inspired based off the front and rear vents, that if if isn't sold as a Lexus I will be so angry man. It looks great so far.

Nice to see that a number of faux cladding has been removed.

Well... it definitely sounds like a cross-plane TTV8.

I only heard squeaking from the brakes

 

[Kelvin2020]

Someone on FB asked ChatGPT to remove the camo😂

It definitely looks like GR86 Pro Max
