Toyota was pushing the whole "driving should be fun" idea pretty hard at the show. So in addition to real cars like the 86 coupe and plug-in Prius (no idea how that fits in), Toyota rolled out the Fun-Vii concept.
Now, a car with "fun" in its name must be amusing and in this case most of that fun is derived from the changable skin on the vehicle. It's basically like one big computer monitor so you can pretty much stick anything on it just like a screen saver. Here you see the wildly hilarious flower photo being displayed.
Toyota says the appearance of the interior is variable in the same way, although we're not really sure what that means. It's undoubtedly fun when it happens though.

So I see a black wagon/hatchback-ish thing filled with flowers. My first though is hearse.

@stovt001 - Yep, same here. Hearse or funeral flower car. It's almost a tacky casket on wheels. Looks like there's a cool concept under there somewhere, but sheesh that flower skin is bad.

Try saying that about the Toyota Funcargo...

The problem, here is that Toyota has NO clue about the fun of actually DRIVING, so their fun has to come from LCD panels on the outside of their cars. And please don't cite the new Scion, because it is a Subaru.
