All I know is Toyota better come out w/ a "Sports/GT" car. RWD be it FR or MR layout. Toyota has to out do Nissan/Honda and domestics right?

Not really. They're doing fine now.

I mean in the "Sports car" area.(e.g. MKIII came out around the same time the newer 300ZX.etc...)

And I still mean what I said last post. They're still doing fine even with lack of Sports cars.

He means they're not in competition with other makers in the sports car market...

Toyota as a company is doing great, yes. But they do not offer the amount of sports cars that other companies do.

Toyota whined that the sales of the MR-S here in the states were the suck.

However, they only spent about $100 marketing the damn thing, and the car the marketing was done was mostly toward the 18-24 crowd. Really, the age group that couldn't afford $25+ for a new car.

...unless you're a smitten 19-year-old female nutcase who would have sold her soul to have the car. But, y'know. Whatever.

I know exactly what he meant. I'm simply saying that IMO they don't need to compete with them because they're doing great without sports cars.

Hopefully, no one else quotes me so I don't have to repeat myself for another time :)
