Toyota seems to want to throw that engine into every performance car variant they make (GR Yaris, GR Corolla, Morizo edition Lexus LBX, rumored 3rd gen GR86) Kind of like how the 2UR-GSE V8 was in every high performance car that could fit a V8.

Akio Toyoda's favorite engines are the Rotary and the Boxer?

I never had a Subaru engine until I had the 86 and as much as i liked it, its not my favorite engine configuration....and rotaries are an acquired taste.....
