The GT GR looks great; it will have a lot of road presence and I don't think the price will scare off buyers. Heck, a decently spec'd Temerario is around $700k, which isn't limited and there's nothing special about it. If the GR is limited production, it will be worth the price tag.

Please don’t compare Italian exotics to this completely non exotic Toyota. Pathetic. It won’t even be able to compare to a lousy beetle as it’s been way too long since anyone in Toyota knows how to make a proper sports car that’s done in house. This sort of engineering needs multiple reiterations and constant refinement. Successive generation will breed success but a new chassis pared with a new engine isn’t very reassuring. Plus Toyota isn’t known to keep their loss leaders around very long.

Totally missing the mark, it’s an ugly AMG GT with the exact same engine format TT 4L V8. If it was 2020 maybe it would be novel but the AMG perfected this long hood short back V8 luxury sports car thing a long time ago.
