Well, if nothing else, people can stop their speculating/whining/bitching.

Kids Heart · 01-26-2011, 11:42 AM

Well this is the Euro version not North America.

Hopefull NA Toyota will not be that dumb to let Subaru steal the sales.

We know the Toyota rear-wheel-drive coupe will wear a Scion badge, and now we might finally know what it's going to be called. The just-make-it-already Toyota FT-86 concept has evolved into the Scion FT-86 and word on the web is that the production version will be known as the Scion FT-S.

Look for the Scion FT-S coupe to make its debut at the 2011 New York Auto Show. Rumor has it that a 2.5-liter engine, not a 2.0-liter, will power the rear wheels and that Toyota plans a heavy marketing push aimed at the drifting crowd.

The Subaru version is slated for a Geneva debut, and the rumormill now suggests that all-wheel drive is planned for the Subaru coupe, which should easily differentiate it from the Scion FT-S and help keep the two cars from cannibalizing each other's sales. If anyone's listening, we'll take an AWD Subaru coupe in full STI trim, please.

Why is autoblog like a year behind?

There is no way I plan to buy this car as a scion. Scion stands for cheap girly cars. NOT performance cars! I can take its at a Toyota (even though I'm not a big fan of Toyota). But not as a scion....

This morning at the Parking lot....i walked by 50 scion tCs....before I got to my car.

Went to a toyota dealership over here in Cali, took dad to pick up new truck, and talked to one of the guys at the counter and started asking about the Ft-86. It wasnt untill i mentioned that it might be a scion that he finally took to what i was saying and so said,

"Ya the scion guys are really excited about it, its supposed to be a rocket."

And so ends the dilemma of what it will be labeled as.
