Not So Boring After All? Toyota CEO Shows Up To Track Event In A Decidedly Unique Set Of Wheels

The new Toyota Century is what the Lincoln Continental wishes it could be. And CEO Akio Toyoda’s awesome one-off Century GRMN is so sporty, and so incredible, and so cool, and I have so much respect for the Toyota boss showing up to a company track event in it.

It’s very easy to get lulled into a false mindset that Toyota is boring, and then the Japanese automaker goes and displays its Gazoo Racing lineup, topped off with Toyoda showing up in the new Century GRMN:

Cool - maybe Toyota should have sold this in the US instead of the Lexus LFA?

I mean....but WTF am I looking at? Didn’t Chrysler already wear this look better in 2005 with the 300??? Ok

The fact that there is a Gazzoo Racing version of the Century shows just how lost Toyota is on the sporting side of their business.

That would be a brilliant Chrysler 300 replacement.

That said, I find the Century far better looking than the Lexus LS.

Clearly the definition of "silly" eludes you.
