Question Anyone got Akio Toyoda's email?

It can't be that hard to figure out right? A Lexus enthusiast needs to speak to a true enthusiast within the corporation.

Can anyone help?

Why don't you go the Nurburgring 24H where he will be racing again? I'm sure you could talk to him there.

If you can't get through to Toyoda himself, try:

Yoshi Inaba
Chairman & CEO – Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A. Inc.
Yoshi_Inaba@toyota.com
(310) 468-4000

Most all of these guys have admin assistants reading and filtering their emails so that they're left only with what they need to see, so good luck getting through.

^ This. Definitely not going to get some personal email from an unknown through to a corporate level executive of any company.

Especially if you try to call him "Aiko"

Really? No way, that was a total guess

But it is usually "first name.last name@company name.com", so it is not surprising.
