Could it be because sports cars don't sell well, meaning that it's tougher to make a profit on them?

I do see where people are coming from when they say Toyota makes boring cars w/no soul or Japanese Buicks...

I would take a hybrid Celica if they made it for a commute car. Lol !!!

The MR2 Turbo was about the last nice Toyota sports car made.

Too bad, I owned a couple of Celicas in the past. In their time they were very nice.

Yeah, Toyota has lost the young enthusiast crowd altogether and has become known as a boring company lately, hence the birth of the Scion marquee (which has been doing exceptionally well, btw, forcing Honda to play catch up) to regain the 16-24 y.o. segment . That is all the more reason for new sports cars to be released to breathe new life into the Toyota umbrella brand among the $30k+ car buyers.
