It's undeniable that the overwhelming factor that car buyers consider when making purchases is looks/appearance, especially as sticker prices go up!

I don't think it'll happen. Doesn't fit Toyota's marketing strategy. They aren't about performance anymore.

Ah man, I loved the way the M Coupe looked. If I had the money, I would have bought one in a second.

Sure, the M2 might be a stellar performer, but if its appearance does not capture car buyers' hearts & emotion$, it won't do very well........Z4 anyone???
