Ouch. I actually felt a kick to my gut when I saw those FT-86 pictures again, the way it was supposed to look and how excited I was.

It's like the fantasy girl you felt like you were finally about to meet, but got suddenly ripped away from you and you can't let go. But, you have a girlfriend now who's still beautiful, so suck it up and face real life. What you have (FR-S) is still pretty darn good.

Sigh.

Yeah it's still a cool car...but they watered it down way too much and yes I understand it was to make it cheap, still a good looking car, but wished it was like the 86 GT JDM model. HID headlights and led strips, automatic climate control, last but not least....push button start. Other than that it's still a cool car.

For the cleanest images here are the full-res pages from the Wheels Showroom iPad app. The actual app is even better. It has videos and more pictures. Enjoy these screenshots:
