Ground effects I dig, but the wings is too rice!

kvl · 12-13-2011, 07:28 AM

it really looks more and more like the celica

Regarding the spare- you're all saying its a full size spare- that looks like a space saver to me.

No way is that wheel 7" wide.

Also it's a yokohama tyre- the factory tyres are Michelin Primacy. However Yokohama usually makes the tyres for space saver wheels in japan- my MR2 had a Yoko spacesaver.

Shouldn't a wing add lift?

Hate the spoiler but love everything else! The spoiler could come in handy after a turbo is added for down force but at stock form is not needed.

someone needs to do more drop chops.

Why would a turbo car have different downforce needs that a naturally aspirated car?

yea...i don't care about the spare. i'm swapping those tires/wheels out anyways.

what i really care about is the headlights. i want to know if the LEDs that this 86 appears to have is an option for the US version.

There will probably be halogen headlamps and then the HID headlamps as an option

There are a ton of styling similarities between the two cars.

The big wing doesn't bother me. It's a good marketing strategy.... No one will be able to mistake what kind of car this is. And it will sell to the rice crowd and the people who respect the aerodynamics of it.

From the front, it looks great. From the side...eh no so much for me. A lip spoiler would be perfect to keep it clean. The red is def growing on me.
