When they dropped the new IS they kind of touted this track as its proving ground. There was never any IS spy shots prior to the car launch (except a mysterious shrunken LS looking test mule of some kind) so my guess would be alot of the R&D work will now be done at this track, away from prying eyes. I imagine that theres going to be alot fewer toyota based product spy shots floating around.

Lol we’ll see. It’ll be fun revisiting this thread in the future. I enjoy reading the comment sections on YouTube from videos over the last decade saying all the test cars that were being seen were “definitely the turbo BRZ STI” or whatever else they were hoping for... just for it all to still be nothing.
I’ll maintain my skepticism until I see something official. I figured people would have learned by now to not treat automotive blogs as gospel, but it seems we’re still riding that train in 2020.
