I posted the same thread on ************* and WEST I think he is the main administrator and founder of ************* had to say this...
"Excellent find, and thanks for sharing!
To the subject of his reply. I have a friend which is a regional Scion manager and he says the same thing, however he knows absolutely nothing about the FT-86 in comparison. He comes to me for information, I'm afraid Scion is working really hard to get the FT-86 released under the Scion brand, but it wont happen.
The rumored price of 16k does fall within the Scion market, however bare in mind the FT-86 is currently being branded as Toyota to Japan, Europe, Asia, and Australia. I doubt they will release the same car as two brands, but alas we still have no official FT-86 debut within the in America/Canada; so be weary.
It would surely be an idiotic move on Toyota's part to put such a staple throwback car under the Scion brand that is known for cheap economical boxes. I sure as hell don't want to drive a Scion, and if it happens; ill buy the Subaru.
PS: Sorry I moved your post!" -WEST
I think toyota needs to be warned if it is gonna go about doing this. Companies tend to listen to there customers; that is if they know what's for their own good
