In this economy, I'm sure none of the high end sport cars/sedans are getting stellar sales. If Toyota was smart they would hold off for a little bit before dropping something like this. I'm sure they're going to hold off on the GS-F production since they seem to play it very carefully compared to other manufacturers.

I think it will sell, but maybe this time it will beat the germans. The ISF,like the G35 are very close, but cant beat them cleanly across the board. Evolution is hard to accelerate. The germans have been in the autobahn bomber production now for 15 yrs solid with really no solid competition . I am a die hard fan of anything from Japan,but have always respected the germans ( as does the rest of the automotive world)for their insane engineering and design. I just wish they would be a little more reliable

I agree with many of you here that since the economy is going down by a lot and with the high gas prices. They should just offer some sportier package for the current GS Model and call it a day because not really a lot of people would want to buy a GS-F at this point maybe when the time that they are ready for release. But just not now.
