"It's not just sports cars. If you make something in-house, you can't actually make anything exciting. For instance, smartphones. For every company, the best technology [from other companies] is integrated in there and that's the excitement. It's the same for cars. If you want to make something exciting and suited to each era, you have to find which company has the best technology and generate new value."

Gee, I certainly hope that the MKV haters are going to use this quote against Tada-san by raising the C8 as an example again.

:rolleyes:

BS that something built in-house can't be exciting. Listen to Andreas Preuninger talk about the GT4. This is passion! I'm sorry but Tada-San is so out of touch with reality and so passive that it's scary that he was a CE or at least in charge of some of the projects.
