Ever since Honda announced that it was canceling its revival of the Acura NSX, product forecasters have been watching to see if the Lexus LF-A would suffer the same fate.
Not so says a source in Japan. The LF-A is still on track and should arrive in the first half of 2010 with a price around $340,000.
The continued existence of the LF-A program has been helped along by the fact that Akido Toyoda, Executive Vice President and grandson of Toyota's founder, has pushed for its development. Toyoda is expected to take over as President of Toyota this spring.

I think there is a typo on the reported price. There are one too many zeros on the end.

....I would definitely pay 34K - without hesitation!

They can't possibly be that retarded.
This thing costs more than a 599 GTB or DBS?
I bet on retarded news source.

No, the pricetag is probably right. Remember, this is supposed to be a supercar Toyo- er, supercar Toyo-. Argh, I can't bring myself to put "Toyota" and "supercar" in the same sentence.

And still no more personality than a dishwasher. And with the way Toyota is going, it will probably be less reliable than a Ferrari or any other such supercar.
