Dunno if you guys saw this. It's from a conversation regarding the the FT-1 (Supra) concept and the viability of that car coming to the market.

Karl Schlicht is the EVP of Toyota Motor Europe.

Naturally, as with most chats with Toyota's people, the conversation went there – you know, about the GT 86 / Scion FR-S and whether there are any concrete plans for a faster edition, to which Schlicht was negative (no surprise there).

"We want to keep that car pure," he said. "You put a turbo on it, give it bigger tyres, and you start turning it into a different category of car..."
