Toyota sucks now, ever since they stopped making the supra, MR2 turbo and GT4 celica's. Those celica's looked better and performed better, The new MR2 looks fugly and doesn't match up to the last generation MR2. Supra, I think we all know the story of that. And the RWD Corolla's bah, toyota is boring.

I think they are a fantastic looking roadster. If only they had put the 180hp version of the 1.8 that the Celica GT-S and Lotus have, it would have been even better.

I dunno, just looking at the back of the car, makes me look like i'm looking at the front of the car like the car has two faces.....I dunno I think the S2000 is more of a fantastic looking roadster.

I prefer the S2000, but it does cost roughly 10 grand more.

I have heard a rumor floating around that we might see that. I think they would sell better now then they have before just because of the popularity it has earned at the movies.

The TC is nice, but Toyota is just abandoning a lot of its sporting heritage. Just sad.

i dont think its too similar. maybe they are pulling the models to make way for the resurfacing of the Supra, although i think its under a different name. maybe the 4000GT, since it uses a 4 liter now.

thats my opinion, and im sticking to it :banana:

I think the new Supra concept car is called the 395. Who knows what'll be called when (if) it comes out.
