I heard from a friend of a friend (who is a service manager at a lexus dealership so this is legit) that they had found a way to reproduce the rotary carbon fiber loom used to build the LF-A for way cheaper, and that the next gen FR-S would be made entirely from carbon fiber.

Also it would be powered by a NA 2.5l Valvematic I6 with a 9k RPM redline.
