This is exactly what I am saying, no offense but who are you to know how much it would cost to produce? You have no idea how much it costs to the V35a in the car over the 2ur. And the car doesn't have the economies of scale that the RC300/RC350 shares parts with.

The RC is already a shortened chassis of the IS/ISC/GS and it didn't weigh any less than any of them. Even then, that doesn't make it this car handle how it does now and instead it will feel just like a luxury car. And you still wouldn't have a decent gearbox or an inline 6.

BTW I wasn't referring to you at all, its common copy and paste logic all over the internet.
