    The TOYOTA 2000 SR concept is a tribute to the mythic TOYOTA 2000 GT, considered the first ’Japanese Supercar’ as it revolutionized the way that Japanese car manufacturers were viewed in regards to their skill. In its production, Toyota proved to be one of the Japanese most ambitious companies.

    As we all know, TOYOTA has settled worldwide as being the top selling company, despite not having a strong and visible history behind. We consider that it was time to show a Concept that benefits the heritage of the TOYOTA 2000GT, the first Japanese model that could rival European and American SportsCars.

    The one thing that caught my eye:
     The SR is propelled by a hybrid engine: A 3.5-liter V6 turbo front mid-engine position has been adopted, that boots up to 610 horsepower.

    Homely? I think it's pretty hot looking. Reminds me of "Speed Racer" too which I find hilarious, given the Japanese manufacturer. I wonder if that's at all intentional :)
