New Yamaha R6 announced... probably not

Yamaha teases concept car for Tokyo...could be interesting...

Yamaha supplied the engine for the old Celica GTS (which also went into the US version of the Lotus Elise). They also made the V6 for the original Taurus SHO.

 

Didn't they also help design the Lexus LFA V10 and the acoustic for the driving experience?

 

Bacon!

 

Im still patiently waiting for Toyota to make motorcycles.

 

Hmm, I was thinking the same thing about Honda

 

^^^^^^^^^

 

I wonder where they put the piano in that car.

 

Hondas are bad enough. Can you imagine how insanely dull and boring a motorcycle from the guys that brought us the Camry would be?

 

have you seen and driven the new Lexus cars/Scion FRS?....think you will be surprised

 

Lexus and Scion are designed by Toyota's lepers.

 

We just got a 2014.5 Camry SE (for the wife, so its loaded of course) and it isnt nearly as bad as the press would lead you to believe.

Compared to the Altima and Accord its pretty freakin' nice. The reliability is just a bonus.

The paddles shifters are nice, but pretty slow though... Steering is "strange", if I had to give it a description.

 

Can't wait for the two wheeled golf cart with piano keyboard and V10 engine.

 

Yes I have, so a toyota motorcycle would either be 50+hp behind the competition [lexus 5L v8] and have stability control you can't turn off completely or it would just be underpowered enough to not be usefull for anything other then drifting.

 

you can turn off the stability control all the way in the F-Sport Lexuses
HP isn't everything, they are also lighter than the competition and do it with NA and not FA and not to mention about 10K cheaper....so yeah

 

Here it is....Sport Ride Concept

Smaller than a Miata, 1650 pounds, 3-cylinder 850cc engine

That's cool!

 

Damn, I could dig that!

 

850cc for 1650lbs? Nah, that must be for the 3 wheeler thingy.
