Hope it happens.

Right now, I can't see that happening. I don't know how Toyota will be able to recoupe the cost of developing one besides the upcoming Lexus IS line up of lets say for now sedan, coupe, and maybe a convertible.

They should improve on the I6 2JZ design, that motor was bulletproof.
2JZ > 2GR.
