Then you have a few people who hate Asian drivers, but that is a different story. The rest of the people hate BMW drivers. The rest of the rest hate Hybrids, and there are a few who hate trucks.
Nobody hates El Caminos or Rancheros. Except for me.
j/k Hate is such a strong word.

It's like it's suddenly become okay to just have blind hatred and express it on every single Toyota article.
The LF-A isn't my personal favorite, but you have to give credit to any company that is racing right now, especially one whose CEO is going to drive in the race.
My guess is that most of the people whining have hated anything not American for a long time, and who now have been allowed to whine and cry openly by the general shift in attitude toward Toyota.
I mean, for heaven's sake - it's a *car company*. Beyond that, it's a car company that has put out many classic sports cars, and lost money on most of them, but is trying again with a sure money loser. We also know they are doing something in the way of the Toyobaru.
I dunno - I'd expect a car enthusiasts site to have a bit more enthusiasm and a bit less hatred.

There are 1001 reasons to hate Toyota, the biggest reason being they haven't built a car worth a shit since the mid-90's MR2 Turbo (no the Supra and that faux M3 turd don't count)

This can't be a Lexus... because that CLEARLY isn't boring.
Maybe the 500hp V10 caused a conflict with the Boring that the Lexus couldn't recover from, and that's why it caught fire?

Honda killed the next-gen NSX, so there's nothing motivating Toyota to release it.
Toyota has been fucked for some time.

That's what you get for making vapourware.
