The last thing I want is to end up with a car that only has some of what I want in it and in a color I don't really care for because that's what they had on the lot.

In all truth the FT-86 and FR-S and the same car but the concept car for the FR-S looks just like the TC, I dont want a car that looks like something else I was a ride that is easy to spot and recognized as what it is.

Skyline, Supra, Corvette, even the Copper if you see any of them you'll know but the FR-S body looks (for now) too much like the TC.

With that said I do like the concept body for the FR-S and I would drive and enjoy the crap out of it but as said before looks too much like a TC to me.

And does that mean there will be no "bumper sticker" pricing on the cars when they first hit the showrooms and everybody wants one?

Thanks, Random.

It's going to be weird if Scion winds up with a hot-selling car and they are forced to sell it at list. We don't normally believe in that kind of fair play in America. :laughabove:

The difference is in bold and makes a difference. A corporation is far more likely to change than the government. Different discussion, don't go offtopic.

Wow, obvious trolling? That's not gonna work here :|.

Maybe he's talking about an update model release?

Maybe he just meant to say 2012 for the FT86?

Have your troll meter checked, will ya?

What i got from that article is the reason why i think he mentioned both ft86 and FR-S name plates, is because we know that the North American Model will be called FR-S ..the international model, while still identical may or may not be called a FR-S. It is still an FT86 as far as the globe is concerned.
