sorry, some of their cars may be boring but I still remember the 90s MR2, Supra, Celica.. What did Ford and GM have during that time ? The spark of the Japanese Auto industry comes across from all parts, including most of the big 3 Japanaese auto companies, across their range they all need to sell their bread and butter stuff too..

MPLS2. Keep going, MR2, Supra, Celica, Soarer/SC, Chaser, Aristo, Altezza/IS, etc. There have been some really very impressive cars from Toyota, and great engines.
If Toyota are buying Fuji Heavy/Subaru, why did GM abandon it? Subaru won't lose their spark. Toyota want to keep the spark alive and benefit from it, along with Subaru's history and experience in innovative engineering.
