What happens when these 18 year olds, that fell in love with that car get to 40, and have more money than they know what to do with? You release a new version of the old car.
|
They might have a cult car. It's a very expensive gamble.

Making the customer happy is OK, but it's not the number 1 priority.
They're there to make money.
Shraka wrote on Tue, 02 March 2004 00:59 | In Australia...
What does Toyota have to compete with the 350Z/RX8? Nothing.
What does Toyota have to compete with the WRX? Nothing.
What did Toyota have to compete with the 200sx? Nothing.
They have the Celica/Corolla Sportivo for the Integra Type R.
They have the MR2 for... the S2000? Well I'm not realy sure.
|
I think the only car they have that can come close to the RX-8 and 350Z is the IS300. Apples and oranges though.
It'd be nice to have a Supra. Or maybe a hardtop MR2 with the 2ZZ-GE from the Celica.
The Celica and Type R are direct competitors to the WRX and 200SX.
So is the MR2, but it's priced $10k too high to really make any money (that's the problem when you have to develop and new car).

Because it makes money.
