The endplates on the rear spoiler does look like something from the front wing of Toyota's F1 car doesn't it?

Wholeheartedly agree. I found this concept when looking for a silvia successor.
More competition = tougher test of a car = those developing the car will work even harder to make this awesome. More competition = more win. Edit: My buddy found this car looking at the next rotary experiment. He's a rotor-head, but even he admits that if both came out at the same time, he'd have a real hard time deciding.

Great so the turbo model will be putting out around 275hp now I just need to know about the weight.

275bhp. The car can't be that heavy. I wonder what the 0-60 times will be. Not for the strip but just how it relates to acceleration. Seat of the pants feel. High 5's??

I personally prefer the looks of the original concept especially the front fender and rear 1/4 panel treatment. The side vents don't look right in the rear of the FT. It looks like it is trying to mimic the GT-R a little too much.

^ Agree 100%... especially about the side vents! All over the internet they are saying how much of a rip-off the side looks of a GTR. I say bring out the original, or at least scrap the side vents. I seriously doubt that are really needed for brake cooling.
