Officially confirmed/unvield MSRP is "$375,000". Lexus will apparently take a lose on each LF-A sold.

350 lb-ft of Torque seems alright.
I usually convert ENGINE torque output figures from lb-ft into kgm.
In my opionion for N/A engines only, a 1.8L should produce around 18kgm (~130lb-ft). A 5.0L should have 50kgm (~362lb-ft)
This is a N/A 4.8L, so it should have 48kgm, but it has 48.4kgm.
Just my opionion.

After watching the clip, I've come to a conclusion that the LF-A resembles the Ferrari Testarossa.

how?
Testarossa: Mid engine, Flat-12
LF-A: Front engine, V-10
and the overall shape is quite different

Ouch...375k! That's getting into some really rare territory for cars - essentially Mucielago, McLaren SLR, Carrera GT costs.
I know it's going to be an awesome car but to put that in perspective, that's a price of a new Ferrari F458 with 570 hp plus a new Porsche GT3 RS...
