You can even read and see the picture of how Mr Toyoda started off the auto company. He even sleeps & eat in the office. Bought back the Ford T-model and reengineered the engine & transmission. Its a 2 stories building with everything about Toyota. What missing here is the sewing machine section where the company all started.

How can someone say it's boring when it looks like a jaguar? Sexy and a collector's item, the father of Celica and Supra!! I wish Toyota can resurrect this car and build a new MK2 2000GT. Perhaps 5000GT sourced from IS-F. The white one is the legendary 2000GT which featured in James Bond's You only live twice. How can someone say it's boring when it looks like a jaguar?
