Anyone else see what looks to be front headlight washers [the square covers below the headlights]. Also fog lights in the outer bumper polygons with the turn signals, and [gasp] LED DRL's in headlight cluster. Looks to be a projector beam headlight

Also note the mini shark-fin antenna on the roof; no stupid whip antenna!
Yeah, looks like we are gonna get nickle and dimed on the Advics... oh well... w/e

The car is going to be pretty much the same world wide. Minor differences like side markers, headlamp washers etc are gonna be the only differences. Don't get your hopes up.

Speaking of which,
Toyota, had you been satisfied with showing the MkI concept, this would have been more than fine. No, you had to go and follow up with the Mk II and the incredible looking FR-S. Now the production version will look tame beyond words. Even though you can clearly see what looks like a MkII body () with a MkI style front bumper, in my head you've already ballsed this part up (irrespective of the fact that this could look quite good). Please bring the goods in the power-weight, handling, price and driving dynamics/feel department.

That is all, thanks.
