Yeah unfortunately....only once in person though. It was a 350z owner at a gas station. Guy walked by me and said "that's an ill rex bro". Mind you its essentially stock in appearance.

waiting for moto miwa to confirm cause he's one of the few guys in the public that knows these things first hand.

Maybe looking something like this? Ignoring the Yellow only scheme.

if the rs2.0 follows the rs1.0 route, it will have its own body kit for the US.

Yep. And I can't see them going with a subdued colour and then slapping a big motherin' wing on the back.

I feel like a full body kit would have been included in the original details(Assuming they are real). I'm hoping for a really nice front lip and a unique rear wing.

Toyota isn't producing a redesigned FRS after seeing sales dropped each year. Their main focus is on a joint partnership with BMW to produce a hybrid sports car to be released in 2016....and no, it's not a Supra 2.0 that people have been asking/rumoring about. This will ultimately kill the BRZ since the engine and design were contributions from Toyota, while Subaru contributed the chasis.

The facelifted redesign of the twins is already doing testing in camo. The FSR and FT1 concepts are going to be their next sports cars, regardless of what their names will be. The FRS/BRZ will be produced for at least 2 more years.

Yep!
Both the FRS and the FT1 are also meant to support the FRS not replace it. One is intended as an entry level and the other as something to move up to.

Doesn't do it for me. I'm in love with the standard red accent, especially in a blue car.

This is tasteful and all but meh...

According to this page http://newsroom.toyota.co.jp/jp/download/6468323
This rather tasteful interior (IMHO) is for an GT“Limited”.

This page http://newsroom.toyota.co.jp/jp/download/6468313
Seems to indicate that the GT“Limited” looks like the second image. and the color name for the GT "Limited" is "Orange Metallic". Looks a little off to me.

And this is very off topic, but I want one of these 86“style Cb”. Very, very much.

I'm telling ya, the FSR and FT1 concepts will only result into 1 sports car being produced. Toyota and BMW are each contributing to their joint partnership on the design, so look for it to have a bit of a z series appearance.
