So many say Toyota should have used a lightened Lexus chassis with either the 2UR V8 or V35a TT V6 and 'still could have easily made money.' The RC-F Track Edition is exactly what they are describing so why aren't people flocking to buy it?
Well when Toyota makes a car like this in house, it comes out just shy of $100k and doesn't have the numbers to justify the price. Of course performance isn't everything for the RC-F but it really goes to show roughly how expensive the car that 'could have been so cheap' would have been to produce.
