If anything, I'd be happy with them re-releasing the MKIV...that car was so far ahead of its time was truly amazing. To this day I miss my 97 anniversary twin-turbo...which I converted to a single turbo. Looking back, I wish I just left the stock twins because the car was quite a bit more practical.
I love the LF-A however, it's still a Lexus so a 200K price-tag is crazy with the current economic issues and the fact that it's a "lexus." I'm sure some people with more money than time will buy one just because they can but, in states and europe, I'm sure people would rather spend that on an Italian exotic rather than a mass car brand. Who knows though!

^Agreed.
I honestly don't expect to ever see the LF-A released. Some of the rumors I've heard is that they scrapped the LF-A project, but are continuing research on the engine, and are still tracking the LF-A body as a lightweight mule.
