Catch the new name under the photo? Not sure of the legitimacy but seems to be a Toyota official site...

Also this is the caption in question:




I'm unsure of it's legitimacy as Jalopnik supposedly had spoken to a Toyota spokesperson almost a month ago:

Jalopnik said the name would be ,and I quote, "the name of the car will be... wait for it... wait for it... the Toyota FR-S."

Maybe they changed their minds? Who knows, honestly just wait till sometime around August....
