Spot on! Very CGT like! Rear wing acts very CGT like as well, lol. Anyway, it sounds awsome, really a joy to my ears! 5L high revving V10 with front midship/rear transaxle = win! And it looks absolutely great! Can't wait for a production model to come, hope they won't screw it...

If recent concepts are anything to go by, there is not much to look forward to in the looks department.

And I don't see a Lexus/Sportscar/Supercar as the best combination either!

Definitely sounds like an inspired engine... best sounding production engine to come out of Japan since the NR750, and WRX with it's boxer 4's....

As to calling it a toyota, and supra... I know if I owned this car, I'd much rather have the Lexus service treatment then the Toyota service treatment.... and woudn't want my car associated with econoboxes
