I really, really, really hope this is just wild speculation and the lash-back from something so asinine as calling anything that isn't a Corvette a Corvette makes Chevy pause, but it certainly didn't stop Ford from doing a dumb.


edit:


Lmao, like how I have occasionally confused various C6-C8 Corvettes with a Ferrari at 500 yards away, I can now look forward to confusing a Corvette CUV with a Lambo SUV.

I'm sure that's entirely coincidental, and there was no lobbying involved.

I may be wrong, but I’m thinking that’s going to be a serious misstep in a highly traditionalist market segment.

What's funny is the salesman was talking about how the Avalon was getting discontinued after this year, but getting replaced by the "really sweet" Crown

Perhaps the joint development of the Z4/Supra led to a bit too much BMW ethos to bleed into Toyota. Except instead of trying to ape BMW by making the front end heinous distinctive, Toyota is going to do it to the rear end of all their cars in the future. :unsmigghh:

You might be thinking of the Century, which still exists and only recently got replaced.


The new Crown is 4 different models in Japan, the US version is one of them, but not the most sedan-like one.

I actually think the red SUV one looks pretty good.
