Seems like the Japanese Automotive industry is really starting to play with the idea of sports cars again after a pretty slow 15 years.
What does /o/ think of the LC500? Will it give the GTR a run for it's money?
fugg that looks gud xD
Looks pretty fucking nice
>automatic "sports car"
just kill me senpai
>Will it give the GTR a run for it's money?
How? if anything is going to do that its the new Supra. since this is a Lexus it might be somewhat heavy with the luxuries. if it isn't going to even break 500HP then chances are it will only give other luxuries a run for the money.
>automatic
Yes Lexus, because all the rare manual versions of all your automatic cars have terrible resale value, nobody wants a manual lexus, right?
It's giving me that "low-level sports coupe that, in a few years, will have 600+ HP and a fat wing" vibe

>lc500
>sports car
jesus chirst that's like saying an LS460 is a sports car.
It's a grand tourer designed for comfort over sport.

> comfortably do 180 mph
What is wrong with that?
>>15095335
Yes, but the LC500 is the grand tourer, the FT-1/Supra thing is going to be the Vette/GT-R competitor.
>>15095335
Literally the poor man's LFA
its a new age but it just isnt the same.
i want a new age of cheap fun sports cars, i dont want a 30k z,100k gtr, and lord knows the new supra and new rx7 if they bring it will be over 100k
its just not the same anymore

How can anyone look at this picture and still want a Corvette?
Will it happen?
[spoiler]nope[/hidden]

It's because poorfags on /o/ are the only people who buy manual luxury cars. They make no money off you guys. They only make money off the rich people buying new, and they obviously want automatic.
Same reason Audi and Mercedes pretty much are starting to drop manuals now too.

>summer can't tell thats a render not made by honda
>>15100766
No just a designer that Honda commissioned... It gives a good idea at least.
>>15100755
I'd drive it
>>15095335
They need to make more entry level sport cars. Hot hatches are gay and gt86/brz is a meme car.
>>15095335
This is everything wrong with modern car design. Kill it with fire.
>>15095406
go back to 1901
>>15095335
looks like it was made by some 13 year old edgemaster.
>>15100785
all entry level sports cars are gay. don't buy sports cars if you're poor.

When we get initial d the american adaptation.
>>15100775
It looks like a lexus.
>>15100785
We have the Mazda MX-5 you know? The best value in the world for someone who just wants to get out and drive.
