    It just doesn't have the style of other cars in that catagory. If I was spending 400k on a supercar that would not be the one.

    I'm more upset about the fact that they use two separate units of measurement on the fuel gauge.

    "1/1" for full and "E" for empty? That's some amateur shit right there.

    The front end and interior are amazing, but WTF did they do from the doors back?

    Plus, $375,000 for a Toyota?

    Radiators, oil coolers etc are all back there. Reason for the grilling and chunky ass. lol This is going to be a 5th or 6th car for those who buy it. Maintenance costs should also end up being relatively low as well.

    I like it
    As far as price goes, it doesn't really matter as I couldn't buy it even if it cost half the price

    Nice looking car but at that price range, there are many cars I would gladly chose over this.

    Completely amazing, I think this is the first car in the last 5 years to actually excite me. The styling is distinctly Japanese, not a rip-off of some other German car, and yet it still manages to be attractive (unlike the GTR). I also see this as the first real Japanese supercar, as it doesn't share anything with other Toyotas. The engine itself is amazing 72 degree V10 unlike the raunchy 90 degree V10s found in the Gallardo, M5 and Viper.

    I'm completely blown away by this car It has everything that it needs - unique looks, an amazing powerplant, stiff chassis, quality interior, great suspension design, low production numbers, no shared parts with lower-end models and thorough testing on and off the track. I honestly can't think of a car currently produced (or near production) that I would rather have.

    You can technically get a ticket for each window that's illegally tinted. So as above, if you're being an ass to the officer (or if he's just an ass to begin with), he can give you two. (or three tickets if you're dumb enough to tint the windshield of your BMW... but if you own a BMW you can't be stupid right?)

    WOW! After owning a Lexus and finding their brand rather boring, this is an awesome car coming from them. Hopefully it wont be a big upset like the IS-Fail

    That sounds amazing. Very ferrari-esque.
    Nicest thing from them since the supra.
