Having said that and based on Toyota's past history, I am betting that we will never see this car in North America.
With Akio Toyoda at the helm, I'm cautiously optimistic.
After all, based on Toyota's recent history, we shouldn't have gotten the LC 500, RC-F, or IS-F (hell, maybe not even the Twins) either.
