They have been working on the Toyota version for a while now. (although toyota is trying to make it a hybrid)

I am a Toyota fan. They make great engines, and every now and then they even make good cars.

But if they offer it in a hardtop - I want one! I want one! I want one!


edit . . . they DO make a coupe!!!

looks pretty good, I'd prefer the regular model though (not the convertible). The interior seems rather lacking... they went for a futuristic look which lacks anything that looks all to impressive. Futuristic and minimalistic? Something doesnt feel right about it if you ask me lol

Its to tail heavy. I hope Toyota can revise that rear end design before it come out. Over all design is on the snooze factor.

Think about how much a SL550 cost, it will be at least that much, plus whatever premium Toyota want to charge for the V10. This is suppose to be an Aston Martin fighter.

120 for a aupercar with Lexus quality isn't bad, compared to any of the European exotics.
