New info!! I saw production photos no camo
So today I saw the production model. And it sure looks good! It will have the rear brake light that lights up 'scion' and 200hp 200ft lbs. The rear wheel arches are very much like the concept, there also is a blac rear diffuser, and dual chrome exhaust. The production is very very close to the concept. I was also told that it will be made in north America. And come in some 1200 pound less than the current Scion Tc! And release date one year from now

I also don't want to be negative but this is a little shocking really; especially the release date being a year from now. If it's announced at TMS in December I really hope they don't wait until NYIAS to announce the US version to put it on sale in July.
The other part sounds plausible but the release date and weight information makes me skeptical; 1200 pounds less than the tC would put the 86 at ~1900lbs curb weight. I would love for that to be true but I find it highly doubtful. |

Alright, calling BS already.. you had me somewhat wondering until the 1200 lbs less than the tC. This thing is not going to weigh 1800 lbs.

Uh, so you're saying it's lighter than a new Lotus Elise? Protip: when making something up, it helps to make the claims sound remotely credible.
