i would agree that both yellow designs look unoriginal 1st looks like s2000 as mentioned and the 2nd looks like an 240/rx-7 cross.

the original design was just that, original. but as long as the performance and driving characteristics are what we were promised, i'd take any of the 3.

I noticed something, the 2 yellow FT-86's dont match.

The on on the cover has black pillars, black mirrors and different headlights. And a different location for the Toyota logo.
The one in the book has yellow pillars, color keyed mirrors different headlights, and again, different location for the Toyota logo.

And i think different front bumper? just slightly different.

What there were pictures in the article? All I saw was April 2012 which is a hell of a lot bettert than delayed until 2013.

Plus those are just some artist guess as to what the production model might look like. My guess is that we'll see a production model at the 2011 Tokyo Auto show and then it'll go on sale shortly after in early 2012. This auto season we'll probably see a subaru concept just to keep the buzz going until the production models show up at shows late next year.

Agreed. If they had the side from the Red concept, front end of the Yellow concept (only because it looks more production like with the blinkers in it) and the wheels from the Yellow concept, I'd be more than happy

ugh according to the article the car is getting bigger, more luxurious, and more expensive. i think that is the exact opposite of what everyone has been asking for in this car. i really hope magx is wrong.

I'm currently @ da track atm (taking a break).

I'll get back later tonight & I have hella early work tomorrow due to interviewing several people @ work (my boss is too lazy to interview people, so I'm doing it). so if u can wait 2~3 Days, but so far I've read, it's pretty much what cyde01 have stated.

I prefer the original.. But I could live with the Yellow one. I still hope the concept shape is put into production.

So, I was reading the article few paragraph through and it was pretty much rumor and bs stuff that we were reading before. Nothing really new was written, so I stop reading. I couldn't completely read the whole article (specially the right side of the article was too blur to read).

Does anyone else really like the grill on the red concept? I know its probably plastic and is going to be all chipped up and break in a week, but I really like the look of the honeycomb.

Same w Z, MX5, S2k, Supra and other JDM car you can think of. It'll chip and break

As for the yellow front bumper is for me.
