Seriously though, I think Toyota Essence would be a cool name.

Sounds like something they would name a mini van. IMO
It needs something with some kick. Toyota Revolver?

Meh, I guess you do have a point. That, and I just realized that Infiniti already has a concept called Essence.
Revolver IMO sounds kinda redneck... Then again, it may convert some buyers from the domestic crowd.

i just had a BRILLIANT idea!

make it a hatchback and call it the toyota hatch rocker cuz it will be rocking a hatch, THEN when they romanize the name in japan it will be the hachi roku! (or something close)

eh? ehhhh? EHHHH? YOU LIKE? YES? *braces for the flaming*

Agreed.

How about;

Toyota Caligo (Latin : to make dizzy)
Toyota Levis (Latin : Swift)
Toyota Semper (Latin : Forever)
Toyota Suspiro (Latin : to sigh/to yearn for)

?
