Yet another honor for Toyota, Subaru, and Tada-san. Once they do the official Top Gear review, this car will explode in popularity. Let's just hope they can build enough!

I mean, on the actual Top Gear show... Unless I missed it? I know they showed a part on the worst cars film and this little clip but I'm not sure how many people watch these compared to the full reviews in the main show. As I said a long time ago, I really hope they do a full challenge/road trip with these cars.

I don't always agree with JC but he got it right on this one. "There's no need to drive anything else"

As the accolades keep stacking up it's for sure that more and more people are going to be wanting what we already have and that can only be good.
