No reasons were given, but we can think of a couple. How many people are willing to part with nigh on a quarter of a million bucks for a Toyota/Lexus? Also, the world's most prolific car maker may not be willing to join the current Nurburgring pissing contest unless it is 100% sure that they can beat the Viper, ZR-1 and perhaps more importantly, the GT-R and upcoming NSX replacement
The above pretty much sums it up IMHO; Lexus came from nowhere in 1990 and damn near dropped Mercedes Benz down to its knees with its LS400. Can someone say a better 'S Class' than the original but for 50% less money?
