They've got to stop with this F1 gearbox BS. It's seriously taking the fun out of the car.

Beautiful.

People don't buy $200k cars for fun.

Nice vid! The interior is dreamy and the exterior i like too. People had the same mixed emotions about the GTR but that car has really grown on people.


Out the box this car is awesome all around IMO.

It looks quite a bit better in that last barrage of pics. There's a really odd angle from the earlier set that's not shown again. Heck, I like it a good bit more now from when the original post was made. It's growing on me fast

At $200k, its not that relevant though. Toyota needs to fill the gap between it and the $25k coupe.

Yeah, no kidding, I'd like to see some incremental products in that $175,000 delta. Maybe a new Supra in the sub $50K range[?]

Sports cars don't make that much money, Camries do.

I'd rather Honda and Toyota make two sports cars; one of great value (S2000) and one ultracar that may not be the best value but is extremely impressive. Imagine that Honda or Toyota only had a $1billion budget to fund the sports car division. They can either make two good cars or 5 cars spread out in the spectrum.
