Dammit, they keep doing that! At this rate they'll never launch the game because they just keep adding cars as they come out!

Produce this immediately and make it as cheap as possible.

Finally they've made something desirable.

Oh come on, you guys are funny. Toyota FINALLY makes something with exciting potential and some of you guys still don't like it. It may not be the prettiest car ever but I'd like them to make it.

I don't think it will be all that cheap... probably 30-40k would be my guess. Looks more expensive than an RX-8.

Too bad they failed in their plan miserably, since that Concept looks a shit ton better than the crooked headlights/fucked up rear side window -genesis..

Or it could be like the AW11 MR2 or ZZT231 and have brilliant handling, be fun to drive, etc.

I like it.

Enough with the mega-expensive supersportscars. I want this -- inexpensive and certain to be a lot of fun to drive without requiring a lifestyle change to own it.

Edit: I think if they toned down the ridiculous styling a bit, gave it 200hp at 2500lbs and sold it for 25k it would be the next 240sx. There is a possibility of a genuinely good car here, but leave it to the bean counters to fuck it up...

Finally, a concept car from Japan which has nothing to do with eco-friendliness. If Toyota makes this, I might just begin to respect them again.

I like it a lot. Don't care about the futuristic interior but the exterior is bold. Which is exactly why Toyota would never put it into production looking exactly like that.

And they they wonder why they're being hit financially.

And then they fail to see the connection.

If it was £12-15k in the uk it would win. If people had more than that they'd want a more serious sports car, so Toyota would need to fall on the correct side of that price-point or it would all be pointless.
