Finally a Toyota Sports Sedan that is rear wheel drive and not horrible looking!

Now if they'd just make one a bit smaller, sports package, Stick, perhaps AWD... it just might put Toyota on the radar as a possible car choice!
Rear-wheel drive package offers dynamic styling and exciting cruising
The design concept behind the Marx X is "glam tech"-combining the visual "glamour" conveyed by the vehicle with the "high-tech" expression of its modern and precise feel. The result is subtle contrast as well as a dynamic and stylish form.
The vehicle's silhouette is smooth and elegant, with expansive front and rear pillars to emphasize integration with the underbody.
The 1,435 mm height and 20 mm expansion for both width and track give the vehicle a low center of gravity.
Rear-wheel drive allows a front-and-rear weight distribution ratio of 54:46 for stable driving.
The bumper's wide opening and deep-set fog lights emphasize the face's low center of gravity and wide stance, while the three-lamp linear layout of the headlights and a mesh grille enhance the sense of vitality.
The combination taillights also have a three-lamp linear layout, while lights built into the lid of the trunk serve as a statement of class.
Six refined body colors are available, including the new Ice Titanium Mica Metallic.
The interior is sporty and dynamic, combining quality and precision that evokes a feeling of driving pleasure.
The leather-covered steering wheel's thicker ergonomic grip and a leather-booted gearshift add to the sporty feel.
The angles of the seat cushion and sides of the front seats have been optimized for superior hold. The driver's seat also features a switch-operated motorized lumbar support function that shifts the seatback forward or back to improve back comfort during driving.
The shoulder portion of the door trim for the front and rear seats has been pushed outward by 25 mm (total for left and right), while the distance between the front seats has been increased by 20 mm, resulting in a roomier interior. - Toyota Japan
