Seems like there's been another leak:

Toyota FT-86: This is it?

Tail's a bit ugly imo. But I'd probably still end up buying it!

Jackygor 10-27-2011 08:26 PM

The rear looks pretty bad but a simple blacking housing of the tail lights should make it look better.

could use a nice wing or something...

Just what I was thinking. It looks great and all but something about it seems a little underwhelming.

^^^ I think it goes well with a spoiler lip like a m3.

twitchyzero 10-28-2011 01:26 AM

just a bit over a month left and we'll see if all this hype was just a major disappointment or a true entry-level sports car that's been lacking from japan for many years now

Culture_Vulture 10-28-2011 02:31 AM

Honestly? I'd rock any sports car (that could be considered a sports car) that Toyota comes out with.

sounds cool. Trouncing miata is big thing to say, however.

^ that looks much better

.Renn.Sport 10-29-2011 07:31 AM

So whats the final name for the car... Can't see it anywhere in the scans

God damn, I've been waiting on this car forever... It looks so clean

Culverin 10-30-2011 01:31 AM

It's like Toyota finally got their sense of style back.
I've been disgusted with the horrible looking cars for the last decade. This looks lean and mean. At this price, it would completely destroy a Civic SI.

It looks great and a finally a car for enthusiasts. It's not going to set any lap records, but that was to be expected. It looks sexy and is a classic sporty RWD. Definitely in the right direction unlike the CR-Z. If priced correctly, this could actually be a good alternative to the genesis coupe which is also a fantastic car. I love Honda, but they definitely need to look at reviving their late 90's sports cars as they currently have all their marbles in the wrong direction.

I have no idea what I'm looking at. But that looks like a lot of plastic just begging to be swapped out for aftermarket parts.

Man... if the price for this car is so low, the market for parts could get HUGE.

twitchyzero 10-30-2011 08:11 PM

interior looks like something i'd expect from a pick-up truck...

you didnt like the Celica?!

tofu1413 10-30-2011 09:00 PM

centre position for tach! yay.

wonder if the motor would be tuned to run like the old 4AG blue tops.. with the TVIS noise at the last 1000rpm or so..

the interior looks like its got lots of room for aftermarket stuff.. factory din unit looks like its begging to be replaced and the space underneath.. looks like space for oil temp metres and such

LuHua 10-30-2011 09:06 PM

^I remember reading somewhere that the interior was designed to be able to take a rollcage without cutting trim pieces, I wonder if that still holds true.

tofu1413 10-30-2011 09:10 PM

^ so the hard parkers could have a relief sigh when they install their PVC piping painted cusco blue? :troll:
