GR as a brand seems like a huge mistake, especially considering they just killed Scion. It reminds me of how Dodge tried to rebrand their trucks as Rams. Tacky.

Also Gazoo sounds really ridiculous when said out loud.

Like.... seriously call your insurance agency and say "I have a Gazoo Supra."

gymratter · 11-09-2017, 11:17 AM

im pretty sure it just means that the car will be tune by Gazoo, and not that we are getting a Gazoo Supra. we have also already seen a Toyota logo on the steering wheel.

Long story short, Toyota wanted to make a website to sell cars that uses pictures back in the early days of the Internet. Pictures or images translate to Gazo in Japanese so they called it Gazoo.com. Somehow it evolved into what it is now as in a garage with a variety or "images" of sport cars.

Is it a stupid name? Yes. So I'll stick with calling it "Gee-Ar" for now.

When the hell are they pulling the wraps off this thing? Feels like the camo shots came out years ago.

It's not at the L.A. show, as many of us thought it would have to be since it didn't appear at Tokyo.

Next opportunities are:

Detroit is Jan. 20
Geneva is Mar 8 (My $$$ is here with a launch under the 'Gazoo' subbrand - Toyota or TRD in NA, obviously. But they won't show the NA version until closer to launch in Fall 2018, I bet)
New York is Mar 30

If it doesn't appear at any of these, well, who the hell knows what is going on.

supposedly a near production concept was shown to dealers yesterday.
