2008 Lexus Roadster, a drop-top Supra by any other name
If it was built by Toyota, it could have been called a Supra.

The Lexus supercar, the LF-A, is going topless. In one of the rare surprises to sneak past our auto show spies, TheCarConnection.com has learned Toyota 's luxury division will be rolling out a roadster version of the carbon-fiber and aluminum sports car concept vehicle.

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.
