Don't even bother with a direct conversion. It never works that way.

Oh and OMG... THANK JOE PESCI!

BUILD IT! NAO! With that steering wheel.

WOOOOT! seriously I was almost ready to go buy a Legacy GT and say fuck it! Thank you Toyota, first time you have not disappointed me (with a car, truck wise your solid)since the death of the Supra.

uk car prices are inflated way beyond what you americans will be paying.

e.g. currently the base model prius in the US is $22,800 - in GBP (currently) that is £14,750

yet the base model prius here is £19,504 which means we pay £4754 more than the americans for the car OR in USD, $7348

that means uk pays around 50% extra for our cars - by that logic you could probably be expecting to pay:
£20000 * 0.66 = £13200 or...

$20,407 USD (at current exchange rate)
probably rounded up to $22,000 or something id guess

It's nice to see that wallpaper was probably an actual photo that's been photoshopped and not just a photoshop. Anyways very excited since Geneva is only a week or so away.

They said the concept will be stretched to meet crash requirements...I hope not by too much the concept's size was one of the most appealing things to me, lol.

One of the big things they have mentioned so far is that the hood and front portion of the car is too low to meet pedestrian safety requirements. I think this is a positive thing in that the concept hood makes the side view a bit droopy up front and a higher hood could make the car look more agressive.

was anybody else smiling while reading this article and seeing the pics??

CyberFormula · 02-19-2010, 03:02 PM

Damn..

FT86 still has the ugly rear end by the bottom near the exhaust.

Well right now $1 is Euro .74 or 20,000 euro that $27,000+, but just like old topic canada and other country tax for cars are higher so ill say base will be $23k to $25k

wow this is great just woke up news

Doty0588 · 02-19-2010, 04:49 PM

Man, knew it wouldnt make it to production, but the more I looked at the interior the more it grew on me, so was now hoping it would stay. I didn't really expect it to, but had hoped.

4agze · 02-19-2010, 04:58 PM

lets look at the head room from this pic the guy looks like 200lbs w/ a 6ft height, looks like FT86 wil have a good head room, well depends on the production seats if its going to be like that or more thicker may change, I just hope the production seats are lower and comfortable.
