Toyota bought one, took it apart bolt by bolt, and copied the suspension, etc. Not sure if there is any truth to that, but it does sound plausible. The Japanese were notorious for copying successful designs in the seventies and eighties, to the point of having lawsuits filed against them in some instances. A low milage Lexus LS400 would be a fine transportation appliance.
