I still remember the photos of the chopped 2 door crown mule driving around Fuji even before you acquired a stake in subaru. トヨタさん、お願いします!
Yeah, thats what got me so excited about this car! Toyota came to US (ok, more specifically, Moto) and asked US enthusiasts what we would like this car to be. It was humbling really...and now seeing this car come to its final stages it appears Toyota was really listening. The only figures I'm antsy to hear about anymore is the weight, and the engine characteristics. If they get it low weight and high-rev / peppy 4A style (for a new age of course), they hit the nail perfectly on the head!

Hey cyde, you wouldn't happen to know who drew that old AE86 successor concept drawing where the car was basically a futurized rounded AE86 hatch? I've been trying to find that picture. Remember seeing it on club4.
