Well you are all focused on the performance part of the car, and i totally respect and dig that cuz that's the part that really matters. BUT, lets take a minute to look at the body modifications on this car from the previous prototypes that were presented to the public at events.
The back: this was totally butchered.... The new lights make it look like it has down syndrome, furthermore the modifications to the trunk are just fugly. it looks like they have already made it for north american plates.
The side: it looks like they extended the trunk and the whole ass of the car a bit on the LVN model, the front was also extended a bit more (most likely to comply with the front impact rules in some countries in respect to pedestrians).
The front: surprisingly untouched but still looks worse than the prototype.

I would personally dump extra 2-3k if i could get a car that looks like the Prototype II, and i think that majority of the general public would do the same thing.

Please note that i am not saying that i would chose the body over performance, i am just saying that the sales from a good looking sports car would be MUCH higher in today's market.

so when it comes down to marketing and final production vehicles i hope Toyota makes the right decisions, cuz atm its looking pretty shitty.
