I am at the top of Toyota and drive cars myself. I was also born with this name.
I myself, as well as Toyota, am not perfect. I, more than anyone, wish for our customers' cars to be safe.
For better or worse, we have to bridge this divide between developing cars that drive by the book and cars that drive how you and I drive.
I really haven't been cognitive of gas prices. It wasn't until I filled up my husband's Toyota Prius Hybrid that I had a moment of understanding of how people who drive gas cars feel.
I don't drive. No. Cars terrify me. I am really frightened of cars.
Top Gear' is the thing that helped shape my life with cars, my perception of cars and my obsession with cars, and I'm raring to give it a go. I'm also quite gobby and happy to get into trouble, so I'm hoping I can underpin the programme with journalistic credibility but still cause some mischief.
After I joined Toyota, there was a period when I drove more than 200 cars in one year - different types, other companies' cars. I want to be able to tell what distinguishes one car from the next.
Your car should drive itself. It's amazing to me that we let humans drive cars... It's a bug that cars were invented before computers.
I'm not going to waste a second feeling sorry for myself because I'm not a bigger star than I am. I can walk down the street in most places in the world and I still drive really nice cars.
I love to drive. My present to myself from 'The Tudors' was a red Mazda MX5 hard-top convertible. I loved that car, and also what she represented - my first success.
I think with more electric vehicles on the road, hopefully we'll still be able to drive some fantastic sports cars with big V8s, or V10s, or even V12s. Why not? If we can find a way to balance the automotive world, where ultimately, when we have most of the commuters drive electric cars, then we won't really have any issue with some sports cars driving around.
I'm not like a gearhead in the sense that I'm not all that useful under the hood, but I am a, I would say, a gear enthusiast. I love to drive anything; I love to drive cars I'm not good at driving with crazy shifters.
I like to drive nice cars; since I live in New York, and I don't drive there, it's a novelty to be on the road and drive and listen to my music.
Every single year, I tell myself I am going to drive. It never happens. I don't know how to drive. I am already 20. This needs to happen.
I don't mean to in any way impugn the makers of Bentley, but that car is nuts. When I do drive, I drive a Toyota Prius. So driving around the streets of Albuquerque in a Bentley made me feel so fake-a-rooney.
There is a great market for cars in the United States - as Honda and Toyota have proven.
