Even Toyota is making inspiring cars now. You can get a sporty Corolla, the GR86, and the Supra all with manual transmissions. Even the all new Tacoma!! Which, let’s be honest, blows away the Colorado in performance, style, and reliability to begin with. And they’ve said they are NOT going all-electric! Imagine that. Toyota of all companies making the kind of cars GM USED to make.



Decorum is for the king and Queen of England.

This is America. We don’t f around.

Don't get ahead of yourself patting Toyota on the back. Tacoma is their strong point, those others are reversible low commitment steps to show other JDM makes who's head honcho.

The Supra is a BMW. The 86 is a Subaru, and below potential by hierarchy. Toyota has a stake there, and has them bowed and shuffling backwards. Subaru had the better sounding of the 4's, and now a stagnant STi is gone.

Every company messes up innovating appeal technology design, to varying degrees. Thinking for ways to grow enthusiast segments is still missing.
