Good thing, too. I bet most people could think of thousands of combinations of cars they would purchase with $250k before a Lexus. Sounds like the XJ-220 all over again anyways.

Quote from the article...

-Actually, one 'Ring test driver didn't mind going on the record with his opinion. Former Nissan racer, NSX development driver and Nurburgring legend Motoharu "Gan-san" Kurosawa reckons, "Toyota are good at making money, but they're no good at making sports cars."
