I know you're joking, but I'd love to see it just for the hell of it. Lol. Like that hellcat powered Dodge Caravan that kept getting rumored over and over.

They did make the Hellcat Durango though which is pretty cool and now the Ram TRX and Ford Raptor R sort of fit in that category. Also thought it was pretty cool they put the 392 into a wrangler.

I was thinking for sure they would of added a GR line to the Camry's, but then again they do have the TRD package, which doesn't change any power levels just cosmetics.

my 2nd gen sienna just kicked the bucket but the 2gr-fe was a beast for the minivan. The 17 inch allow wheels leave just enough room for a brake upgrade from the 3rd gen. Stiffen up the chassis and take out the seats you've got yourself a race car, especially if its the awd. There's a trd supercharger kit for the engine that bolts on too

This is because emissions around the world are constantly changing and the push to clean renewables is a big push in a lot of westernized nations whether we like it or not. The writing has been on the wall for a few years now. Even Ford has stated the new Mustang GT will be the last 100% ICE version. We should be happy Toyota is going out with a bang. It’s a great marketing for the company and will go down in history showing they made sporting vehicles again, at the end.

Wait for a wrecked GRC to pop up, then swap the drivetrain into a Sienna. Be the change you want to see in the world.

That's blasphemy. Don't you dare.

I wanted a GR Tacoma as a spiritual successor to the Tacoma X-Runner. Toss a V8 in there with some suspension, body kit and drop it a little and you got a sport truck that would sell out for sure.

Apparently toyota is still going to make GR Sport editions of their models. And speaking of GR trucks, they sell these sweet Hilux GR sports in Thailand. But I have read that a GR sport cH-R is coming too here in the USA.

If it has wheels, people will race them.

Umm what happened to the EV MR2/Celica?

 

[david.a.skelton93]

Part of me would love to see a GR Prius, just so I can witness enthusiast's heads explode at the announcement.

Just because governments are forcibly banning ICEs, doesn't mean EVs will all be anti-sporty and kill off sports cars. GR models can live on, even if EVs make the whole experience numbing and antiseptic.

At least that's what I keep telling myself, so that I can get out of bed every morning. 💩

Hyundai is attempting to make a sporty N car. If the VN and Elantra N and even Kona N are any indication, I believe their commitment to the cause.
