The only reason we have the GT-86 is because Akio Toyoda kicks ass. Without him, no LFA, no GT-86. We'd be looking forward to some "performance" Prius coupe a la the CR-Z. Unless Nissan/Honda gets a similar CEO with a "make a fun car, damn it" focus, we won't be seeing a new Silvia any time soon.
Uh, GTR and Z are not fun cars? New NSX not hitting your happy button? Evo was too boring?

I can agree that Honda makes nothing fun, realistically, but Z's are pretty damn fun cars. So are G37's. As for Mitsu, they're a bit of a debacle.
