I think that car should be around 80k....

I wont argue with you,that price is ridiculous.But it is a pretty cool car.Though id take a Ford GT over that any day.

I hate to say this, but does that front not look similar to the Nissan GTR?

Yamaha built V10 that's lighter than a V6 and revs to 9000 RPM, that's impressive. $400,000 impressive is isn't but still it looks good. I'd still take a GT or an Italian super car over it. They were talking about how Yamaha built the motor but forgot to mention Yamaha built the SHO Taurus motor too!

Price is way too high! Plus, Toyota is breaking the law of Expansion. This will fail miserably!

I have heard all 500 units are accounted for with deposits. This is second hand info so take it for what its worth.

3.6 sec for $300,000+ ???? no thanks.....might aswell get a new cts-v that does 3.9 sec at a fraction of the cost which looks better and seats more

Sounds like one of their "Sales Managers" is leaking this info
Even if it is true, it will only hold up in the short-run. People that can spend that type of money are not going to spend it on this car. Majority of these folks will stick with the Italian super cars.

For that price I think I rather buy a termi in every color that was produced and with under 10k miles on each of em, ow and finally finish the notch with the best performance parts on the market
