Excited to make cars like they used to eh? How groundbreaking and original, to make more of the cars the long time fans of the brand want, lol.

It sounds like they are going to go get the original AW11 MR2 blueprints and update them for today's world and say that is good.
I mean the twins very much have "limited electronics," compared to most cars. |

It sounds like they would "like" to but have been told it won't happen. The original article that is being quoted just says they knock the idea around once in a while not that they have ever seriously considered it.

exactly. Sam as Tada-san mentioned it but we know it probably won't happen. Of course I don't know anyone that thought Toyota would work with BMW either, so at this point anything is possible. Hey Lotus might want a less expensive sports car too since even being bought out yet again they are still having issues. |
