And had to sneak it in the US under the Scion badge due to the previous MR2 debacle's.
Disagree/not true. Toyota and Scion have different targets of customer base. The 86 fits the Scion more than Toyota AND Scion had nothing new to offer into the product line. This has nothing to do with the mr2 product line considering it's based on the AE86, the 2nd gen Mr2 actually has some character because of the snapoversteer (I've owned 2), and the precats haven't destroyed my current '01 Spyder.
