"Toyota USA President and CEO Jim Lentz confirmed the company's plans to produce an "affordable" sports car for the U.S. market. Lentz cited the Toyota FT-86 Concept shown at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show as "a joint-venture product between Subaru and Toyota...(that) will be coming to market." Both models are rumored to come in at under $20,000 and likely closer to $17,000 if the dollar/yen exchange rate doesn't go completely haywire."

"the 2012 Toyota Celica--and its Subaru sister--is rumored to be a sloped-roof hatchback with a slightly larger footprint than the late front-drive Acura RSX coupe."

"Safety features likely will include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, curtain-side airbags, and front-side airbags. We expect available features on the production car to include a navigation system, leather upholstery, and heated seats."

From your cut and paste to God's ear. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Is there really a need to make a new thread for an article posted back in June which was written based on an interview done back in Feb 2010. :bonk:

Ignore.

This kinda remind me of that Sub Ft86 that's suppose to be tested on MR2 platform If I remember. I know it's Prolly has nothing related to the title at all but, this reminded me of it a $17000 car
