If it was built by Toyota, it could have been called a Supra.

Lol lexus is built by toyota dingus...

Look up the japanese name for the car, I bet its a supra in japan.

Its the same thing as an infinity g35 being a skyline with a tuned down motor.

Thanks Mike. Yes, I know. The point was it isn't Toyota badging so...

I like the looks of the car, however I'm not a convertable guy.
