Those that have driven the LC have said it feels nothing like a Supra. The team wanted to bring it back to its roots (2000GT). Where are you getting your numbers from? Yeah it's bad when compared to the S class, but pretty much the same as the 7er and way better than the A8. Can't really make a good LC comparsion, because the S-class coupe & sedan and 6er + GC are all totalled together.

I personally don’t believe a word TOYOTA says that it polled anybody.
If they told ppl what would you rather have a BMW inline 6 with 335hp from a 3series or a new Toyota/Lexus 3.5 V6 TT with over 400hp - guess what the answer would be?

The new LS is a huge disappointment.
Each time a new LS generation came out it handily outsold Sclass in 1st few years partly because its $20-30k cheaper. This new one is collecting dust. Lexus is offering $8,000 lease cash to move them in 1st year!
