Unless the Toyota comes out with a turbo, many people who waited and current owners of 350z/370z/Genesis etc who are looking for a newer car will opt for the Subaru version.... Looks Audi-ish with Mazda touch.... which is GOOD.
The delinquent looking rear tail lights of the Toyota only really appeals to the really young, like 18-21 year olds.... they need to offer a "red" cover tail lights off the factory.... many people do not want to mod their rear lamps within the first year or 2 due to warranty purposes.....

I still like the Toyota version better! I don't like the BRZ front grille. But the rest of the car is tight! I need to see the whole car like the FR-S.
Just because the Japanese version of the FT-86 has the clear taillights does not mean the US version will have them...
