YOLO, Evora or RCF. Evora will be an event every drive, other two maybe not so much.

Buy Evora 400, drive for a few years until bored and sell it. Replace with big Lexus which will have depreciated substantially like all big V8 GTs do and done the bulk of it's depreciation by then.
I should start charging for sharing my extremely high levels of IQ
Well the Lexus "Relax" warranties will run toward the end of 2026 for the early cars...and not sure I'd like to run one without it. Some of the prices of parts are fearsome....so if I don't buy one now I suspect I never will.

I thought Lexus have “unlimited” warranty as long as you get them serviced at the Lexus dealership every year? Or is that totally my imagination?

Objection m’lud. The Recaros (CS I believe?) in the S1 Evora are
fabulous. Lots to like about the later cars, but I don’t think I’ve seen a single suggestion that the Sparco’s fitted to the 4xx versions are better.
I guess we need to let Rich judge their flatness quotient though.

Overruled - I was referencing the Evora 400 Sparco seats, but will succeed that I didn't make that clear.
The S1 Evora seats are indeed, brilliant.

Not easy finding a suitable seat when your shorts are full of ass like RichB Shortz

Up to 10 years or 100,000 miles.

400 got Sparco
Rather than Recaro (image pasted again below for easier comparison. This is generally considered a backward step going from Series1 to 400, although many other interior updates were well received.
