Many of you saw the story that Hiromu Naruse, one of Toyota's lead technicians, had died while testing the limited edition Lexus LF-A. This was the man responsible for the design of cars such as the 2000GT, AE86, Mk1 & Mk3 MR2, Supra, every model of Celica, and many others.

Its only fitting that he gets a RWD small hatchback car produced as a tribute, something he always wanted to see Toyota make, soemthing affordable for the masses. THis is only a rumour however, but if it's true, Toyota are moving onto exciting times.

Imo.. something small & rwd could be dificult to work with lol not saying its be hard, i mean if you go from a nissan big boat to a toyota hatch rwd it may take some getting used to! i may be wrong completely lol.

id love to see toyota doing this, theres a guy that rolls a rwd kp70 at knockhill and its awsome to watch him go sideways while some stupid evo's spanking it down the straight lol

RWD HATCHIE's are full of win material!
