Yeah, Toyota has definitely lost their way when it comes to the enthusiasts cars. The older Supras, Celicas and MR2s were fun cars. I am not a fan of the collaboration cars with Subaru and BMW. Dodge probably did the best job of marketing over the years. Gotta hand it to them for keeping that heavy platform selling so well for so long. They will be interesting to watch to see how they handle the EV transition for that type of customer base.My Impala with the 383 and custom dual exhaust with X pipe could set off car alarms from the engine noise, and the cam lope was palpable.
I do not miss it.
I actually swapped in a camaro dash cluster to get more gauges so I get that- but can't really think of any I'd care about having on an EV.
So really the only things on the list I'd want on my 3 even if I could get em would be the magnetic shocks, and better lateral support on the seats.
As to the BRZ from my (limited) reading it's a lot more a Subaru that Toyota is slapping their name on- kinda of like the abomination that is the BMW Supra.
Toyota increasingly is looking like it's gonna be the Nokia of the EV transition.
