I unno about anyone else, but I'm stoked that I can rest easy now knowing that its OFFICIAL that this car is making it to the U.S. market. We all kind of knew it was going to, but its nice to actually know now for sure.

As I've said before I'm greatly disappointed that this car is not being badged a Toyota in the U.S., as Toyota's sports image is basically non-existent, and it would have been nice to see the old glory of its sporting roots mark its return with the FT-86.

That being said, the overall Toyota fanboy in me isn't as disappointed as it could be. The car's heart, its soul, is being supplied by someone else's technology completely, FHI's boxer technology, so the car already isn't a "Toyota" in my mindset.

But meh...can't wait to see the show.
