Think people are freaking out about some things for no reason. Spoiler is cheesy, but you can sure there'd be versions without it. Or, you can just take it off. Not a big deal. It's production-close concept, which typically means the body dimensions are and general design is locked in... but stuff like the ground effects will change. Guarantee the lower bumper, door sill and bottom half of the rear bumper will be more tame than this. I'm even doubting there'd be a rear diffuser at all. Definitely thinking no carbon fiber, it's just not practical.
I'm hoping the production version will have 17" standard wheels, but we'll see. And seems like nobody asked, but are there going to be no interior pics for this show?

If the designers have the idea to put all of these 'ricey' components, how much more for the production. Just like you mentioned, the MKII looks like the concept and the MKI looks like the final stage of a production car.
If this current design was released, I could see this car rocking a Scion badge only b/c of the wrong stuff!
As Mike pointed out, why did they square off the fenders!?!
The little things add up and they found a way to ruin clean looking car.
