i understand a litlle bit of the reasoning as tho why both the celica and the supra was cut. I belive the supra was just one of the unfortionate cars to get the axe due to the increasing gas prices and the downturn of "Real sports cars" (new mustangs are not in that catagory, 31mpg my butt). As for the Celica after the switch to FWD it fell apart. Nobody needs another sporty fuel efficient car.

dam i forgot my original point. the new LFA is probably another plot for Toyota to milk more money out of stupid rich American(Im not saying all Americans are stupid) Think about it Lexus is based Where?

Understand, a lot of "rich" people are not very sharp when buying cars. Tiger Woods driving a fancy Chev was disappointing.
Do not think I would waste my money. My current main ride is a 2009 Honda Civic EXL. I drive it to work and on long trips. I did not get the SI since all it came with was a 6 speed and did not wish to play with it in the often heavy traffic of "dysfunction" junction. I was not at all impressed with the Corolla or Camry.
My view is we are going to have and keep our Supras operational. There are no new ones to replace them and the "sports" cars sold today are troublesome. My co-worker bought a new Challenger and it is already developing problems Don't get me going about the Camero or Mustang. The word in Japanese is "sodai-gomi" or garbage that you have to pay to dispose.
