It's almost like Toyota is trying to one up Honda in the contest for "worst roll out of a halo sports car".

The ad people at Toyota think it will help. That's all that really matter since this is just a marketing tool.

The car is obviously finished. Incredibly lame to keep the camo on for an "unveiling"

If you're going to leave the camo on, at least push the car above 5/10ths and show that your "not a numbers car" is at least fun to drive. What a boring run.

Great helmet pics! Does anyone have a render of the helmet without the camo?

This "reveal" is getting hugely-panned on Jalopnik.
Of course, Jalopnik would pan anything Toyota-related, but at this point, I'm kinda disappointed with Toyota for dragging this out so much... And keeping the weird 2-tone wheels....
