F'in lame.

The tagline "rebirth of a legend" is nice though.....

But I think that it'd only work depending on wether Toyota wantd to just market the car itself, or a whole new image, and I think they'd prefer to do the latter. After all, that is half the point of this car in the first place.

FT86 is an appropriate name for this car.

I wouldn't mind that either... but as has been discussed earlier, since Toyota reserves the "FT..." nomenclature for "Future Toyota" concepts, we don't think there's much chance them using it here.

Lol then what about a one letter change to like CT86 or RT86 or anything else along those lines?

(edit: after looking at it I really don't much like those two options themselves, but maybe something along those lines.)

I would go with GT86 if not FT86.

Man, I know it won't be released before GT-5. The GT5 release date is November when I saw it in Gamespot.com. Maybe we can download the GT5 SpecII or III when FT-86 is released. I hate you so much man, I try not to think about GT5. You.......

I'm sick of the alphanumeric naming schemes. Real name please.

Haha yeah, I wonder if we all agreed up on a name that we thought was good, if the car would actually be named that. I already know we have some power, but I think it would be cool to have so much power as to name the car.
