Well during that time Toyota wasn't associated with "cool" (imo they were only successful with either utility or luxury) which might explain the drastic design change with the A80. Pretty sure nobody bought Toyota for their "handling". Besides, the younger folks couldn't even afford the Toyota premium, while the older folks with money usually bought German or Swedish.
I think Toyota has been going thru the same identity crisis in the last decade or so hence all these radical designs as of late.
