Thanks. I think Toyota has enough power for their cars. Its just they need an actual sporty car. Not a dressed up body kit and call it a day car. I'm guessing and fingers crossed that the next tC will be more competitive performance wise. Also as Sulu mentioned the Corolla XRS should get the new 2.5ltr thats in the 09 RAV4 next spring. Or a variation of that.

The MKS is already out with the 3.7-litre V6. I don't know if the EcoBoost version will replace the 3.7-litre or be a performance version.
The EcoBoost will eventually find its way into Ford's trucks also.

well as the name suggest EcoBoost is for economy but I know it delivers performance. I would think the supercharger is more for performance than FE. Of course i know the EcoBoost is a marketing term that I'm sure Ford will whore out cause that is a magical word these days. Eco or anything to do with gas savings or suggest it at least.
