I've read about this, destroying the prototype always seemed to me to be a bit of a waste, perhaps it was so it didn't fall into the hands of the people at Lexus dun dun dun.....

Its amazing just how close to the final production spec that prototype was! Fit and finish on the interior look to be top-notch.
