Toyota has given you the car the FT-86 is based off of without any confusion on communication. Its modeled after the AE86. You guys sound like you want a Celica / Celica Supra successor based off your wants of mid range torque, etc. (hey, the R series engines were GREAT at torque! ) That would be awesome to see, but this isn't the car filling that role currently.
+1. in my opinion the torquey tC was a devolve rather than an evolve of the 7th gen celica. yeay, more torque and more lbs!!!
