O.o What? Almost every review loves the steering and suspension setup, for toyota marketing/engineering to change that, they would have to be idiotic.

FIrst I was just making a joke, and this car prob will become a classic, but I would think a car is a classic because of its performance, aesthetics, uniqueness, and overall awesomeness, not for what it's supposed to 'represent'. IF they can improve on every aspect of the car, and not include the HPFP, tailight condesation, vibration, rattling, window auto-scroll issues, etc, why can't the second year model be a classic? if they had botched the look or the way the car actually drives, would you still be calling this car a future classic just because it represents the 86?
