You haven't driven one, much less seen one in person I'd bet, and the conclusion by the people that have seems to be that it is indeed worth every penny.

If you are coming here (and FT-86 forum) to argue about 0-60 times and such, it's likely that you won't be around for long, but whatever. It's usually the fanboys themelves who cry "fanboy" when somebody steps up and presents something in the correct light.

Fact:
Toyota did indeed create a supercar before. If you don't consider it one, fine. That does not change another fact; Just because it's their first doesn't mean they had to price it to make it accessible to everyone. Nobody told Konigsegg that they couldn't price the CC8 at $350,000 their first time out. No one certainly told Pagani that they couldn't price the Zonda C12 @ $320,000. The LFA is quicker and laps faster than both.

What's scary is that you can't recognize what's a great car and what's a "great car for the money".

That is all.
You didn't present nothing to me but some car in the 60's with a 2.0l I6 that Yamaha pretty much built for Toyota. I wonder if Nissan had priced the GT-R at 300k would you feel the same way about it being overpriced? I pretty much know your answer and 90% of this boards answer. After all this is a TOYOTA forum right? And to the guy that says I'm a troll I pretty much have love for cars that Toyota have built with sport intentions and a good price to go with it(Supra TT,MR-2). Forgive me for not going crazy for the yaris,prius and corolla.The problem with forums nowadays is that people become so emotionally attach towards a brand you like that you can't take criticism or opinions but you love for others to take your opinions and run with it or else they are considered a troll.
