True, but personally “these days” it seems so many damn cars share the kinda important things you don’t really want them too.... E.g. the supra/bmw.
The engine is really a massive part of the character of any car.

Even our great 86/brz is the same damn car with a different badge (never mind just some parts). In this instance it worked well (IMO).

Sorry, I can't quote you.
"The engine is really a massive part of the character of any car."
My mum's Yaris would disagree with you.

You’ve actually proved my point. Haha.
It’s a bland, boring car with a bland, boring engine

Oh cool another render. This is the most rendered car ever I think. Someday they may even have a version you can actually drive.

Looks what we're not going to see anything next week after all. Here is what appears to be the 8th and 9th spot.

At this rate, we will have found technology to upload our conscience into a video game simulator to drive a rendered version of this car before the car itself rolls off any toyota or bmw assembly line.
