Since 2003 when I pitched Toyota the idea of a modern AE86.

I gave my 2007 Yaris 2 door to my DIL,so I went looking for a replacement. Thought maybe a Corolla might be in order. Went to the dealer sat in the corolla ,jt was OK but a bit short on leg room. I saw a new 2016 FRS series 2.0 om the showroom floor. I asked if it was OK if I could sit in it,sure,help yourself. So I folded my 6'2,34 inseam 68 yo frame into it and thought man this has tons of leg room and didn't feel cramped at all.

I asked If I could show the wife,he said,sure take it home and we'll see in 2 hours or so.
The wife said,Now that's a babe magnet,until you step out of it. She said ,what the hell,the house and life insurance are paid for. Yes go get it.

I've developed a technique for getting in and out that makes it easy for me. And yes,I look back at it like I checked out my wifes' ass when after a date when I said ,good night.

Thanks, but the CR-Z was inspired by a later student project at ArtCenter.

You don't own a black car, the black car owns you.
