	Toyota replants itself near emerging markets (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Now, Toyota is banking on a new version of this sturdy workhorse and a couple of related models it will sell mostly in the developing world as a key part of its strategy to overtake General Motors Corp. as the world's No. 1 car maker.
		Toyota wouldn't say how much it spent to develop the new platform and the three basic models based on it, but the company said it sank in at least $1.4 billion so far to update or build manufacturing facilities in Argentina, India, Indonesia, Thailand and South Africa, among other countries, for the project.
		Toyota executives also realized that the company's internal system of pricing and discounting made it impossible for them to determine accurately whether the company was making money or incurring losses on each car produced in the Asian region.

		Buick Century was a model name used by the Buick division of General Motors for a line of full-size performance vehicles from 1936 to 1942 and 1954 to 1958; Buick also used the Century name from 1973 to 2004 for its value-added mid-size cars.

	Toyota Century - Ultimatecarpage.com forums
		There are whole crops of upscale Japanese cars, usually reserved for the home market (although the Toyota Century is available in China with LHD steering-wheel), whose design is intentionally aping the patrician style of the kind Detroit used on the Buick Electras, Oldsmobile 88s and Chrysler New-Yorkers.
		The Toyota Centuries, Crown Majestas, Nissan Cedric Broughams, and other Mitsubishi Debonairs are/were sold mostly to the generation of postwar Showa-era executives dilignetly running corporate Japan, as well as the civil servants humbly serving the now fully-humanised emperor.
		Same for the British style forward wing-mirrors (as seen on the Toyota Century above), also long gone in their native UK, which used to be quite common on many Japanese cars till the late nineteen-eighties.

	TOYOTA: Responsibility > Environment
		To achieve sustainable mobility in the twenty-first century, Toyota is taking on the challenge to develop various technologies and incorporate them in products, including improved fuel efficiency to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, diversification of energy sources with an eye towards restricted petroleum consumption, and clean emissions and safety technologies.
		Therefore, Toyota is actively promoting recycling at every stage of a vehicle’s lifecycle —development, production, use, and disposal— and also feeds the information learned from recycling processes back to the design stage in order to produce easy-to-recycle cars.
		In light of certain conditions, such as the depletion of resources and environmental impact of waste, it is essential for Toyota as an automaker to increase the effectiveness of environmental measures already in place and promote the creation of a sustainable, recycling-oriented society.
