I do like the dials. . . but the rest, ugh.  Rice Rice Baby.  It looks like a GTR tricked out with body work.  This just doesn't do it for me.  From the obtrusive rear fin to the hood slit to the hood vents it doesn't do it for me.  I do kind of like that side vent by the window. . . well sort of. The back slats are too busy and too many.  Oh wait I just realized that Fin goes down, well that's good at least. I won't be on this list.

Love the dials!! I wonder how much it would cost if they did it in aluminum instead of carbon fiber.

Now who's the driver?  Motor Trend's or Lexus?  Sloppy? Revs dropping everywhere in turns, strange lines, riding that rough kerb in the end was terrible.  Stig would detonate this guy.

I wonder if you can hear the Mark Levinson system at all in this car.  The engine definitely looks noisy for a Lexus, I wonder why they didn't go turbo.

Can't wait to see this car competing with Porsches, Corvettes and Ferraris.

I'm glad someone said it. The driver was either just showing off or he was terrible.

The trans doesn't seem overwhelming either...  They better offer it in manual (yeah right...)
