They can be fun to drive, but so can most any modern car. Every boring joe daily driver can have an AT with sport shift dropped in it.

I loved the Toyota of the 80's and 90's. The first gen MR2 was a blast to drive. I can only imagine that's the same for the next MR2, then the MR-S, and of course the Supra.

I want Toyota to get back to making enthusiast vehicles instead of only making slow cars to congest the suburban highway.


Lexus is a little different, but not by much. I don't pay that money for a BMW, I would certainly not drop it on a more boring Lexus. Also, personal biases being what they are, put a manual transmission in one of those overweight dogs, would ya?


Also, I think the FR-S is a fantastic direction for the company. They should have released it as a Toyota FT-86, but what's done is done.


Edit: I forgot to touch on Toyota Trucks, which I understand are excellent. I'm just not a truck guy.
Contrary to some beliefs... Not all AT shifted cars are made the same. Some are exciting, others are boring as shyt.

I have no issue with toyota's of they past. They are legendary. I have issues with Toyota's since around 2002-2003.
