Toyota having 2 x 2 seat coupes, I really cannot see that being viable.
Unless they drop the Zupra. I would think a all Toyota Celica would be viable, after the twins get canned that is. I still believe the twins don't have a long future. A RWD Manual, running a retro fitted and pumped up 2.0 L M20A-FXS I4 would be good. LOL

Just go find one.. my 94 SMG has "around" 350hp at the crank and it was well under $40k.

I hope the real thing will look better than that. But to be fair, cars don't always look their best in these design patent. The Lamborghini Centenario for example.

To me, it looked more like VW was taking the "new Beetle" and coming up with a new Karmann Ghia. There is nothing MR2ish about that design. (MK1 or MK2)

Still looks like a VW bug to me.
