Yeah, April fools.
Toyota said in the early '00s that they will never produce another turbocharged car in order to protect the environment? Is that true?

In japan they still sell the 3S-GTE powered Caldina GT-Four, so I don't think thats a truthful statement...

That's what I was thinking, but then again that's not a new turbo engine, it's an old one. I sure hope it's not true, I love TEH BOOOOST

Well if we are that worried about pollution maybe we should stop making this big ole v8's that guzzle so much gas stateside. Comparatively a turbo is probably more efficient I'd think
