I'm stealing some comments from Club4AG yesterday regarding the new FT-86G for discussion here... I agree with em...

Quote:
wow i dont understand how the FT86 concept seems like the most outrageous and expensive concept ever for an economical/cheap/entry level car???????? everything is big - brakes, wheels, carbon fiber, fender flares. do they think that people are going to pay $20k for the base and $40k for the G sports?
Quote:
looks like Toyota is engineering initial D tax into the new ae86. I'll be satisfied when i see a real concept with no carbon fiber and expensive materials and outrageous wheel sizes
Quote:
One thing that is promising however is just like the TRD/Toyota support for the AE86 the FT86 is getting MAJOR LOVE from Toyota. This seems to show that they've SPENT MAJOR MONEY on it and IT MUST be successful.

All the new technologies that it is unveiling should completely blow all other JDM coupes out the water and put them back on the drawing board.
