Longer and wider for each successive iteration, however the FR-S is much lower than the other two, which gets me excited. I'll bust a nut if the height ends up under 4'.

The press announcement admitted the 10" wheel width is extreme, so shave off at least two inches in the width for production wheels and less bulged fenders and you're back to FT-86 I width. Also, shave off a few inches for the cartoon rear diffuser and pointy front end and we're back to FT-86 I length too.

In the end, none of the prototypes matter. What matters are the production numbers.
