It sounds like they are all going to be built to order, and there are some pretty absurd color combinations possible.

Amen. At $100k they *might* have had a market.

I can't imagine that there are more than a dozen people in the US that (a) have the budget, and (b) would prefer it to a Ferrari, Lamborghini or Porsche.

To put it into perspective. For that amount of money, you could buy a used 2008 Ferrari Scuderia *and* a new 2010 Porsche 911 Turbo. Either of which would meet or beat it at the track, but utterly DESTROY it in style, kerb-appeal, heritage and marque allure.

Would be my game plan aswell. Or, a 4,000 sqft 5bd/3bath, 4 car garage in Texas!? :P

Havent heard how many they are going to produce though? Guess I could google it!?

Paul nailed it completely. I agree and I've had five "Lexi". At $375k it doesn't interest me in the least.

Actually, the price is based on 2011 pricing and my guess is they are anticipating a giant devaluation of the US dollar to cover the debt our elected idiots in Washington are racking up. It could be that by then that $100k car will take $375K to buy it.
