RE: Dany Bahar suspended

The original proposal for the M100 was a car shared with Toyota in order to replace the AE86 and to help leverage Lotus volume. The Excel got the gearbox/diff & the M100 got a FWD Isuzu powertrain - only because GM took over.
Now I was just wondering; if Porsche wed themselved out with a VW Phaeton/Toerag clone, couldn't Lotus leverage something similar with Toyota for profitability? I dunno, maybe a halo version of a cheap Toyota sports car, rather than just the engine? Even if the basics come from Subaru anyway?
Love the Aspergo-mong shirts. Do Castle Lotus sell them yet?
