$375k? Good lawwwd! That's a really expensive lunch for a C6 ZR-1... and with some of Toyota's "legendary" quality? Hope the gas pedal doesn't get stuck with 550hp, cuz this ain't no Prius!

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! [Big Grin]

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

Sounds like one of their "Sales Managers" is leaking this info [Wink]
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.
