Toyota Going Full RWD?

Pretty short article, but basically says that, after driving the GT86, CEO Akio Toyoda wants to make the Toyota line-up all RWD.

EDIT: Satire, @Manic

that wouldn't make any sense for the worlds most boring brand of cars.
RWD is expensive and no Camry buyer will justify the extra cost.

I do not see Toyota going full RWD at all. They might in their future sports lineup but for cars like the Camry and Corolla...doubt it.
