Infact, I'm more positive it will come with an open diff and have the LSD as a dealer installed option because thats how they make more money.

+$2000 is a rip-off though. Won't be getting it from me, especially with how easy it is to install a diff on an IRS.

Im thinking it will be priced under the Nissan 370z, G37, Genesis coupe etc.. Probably looking around $25k-$30k

It's especially frustrating when it will likely be standard in other regions.

$25k is the standard right now...at first it was $20-$23 (way back when). $25k now starting price....if the dollar doesn't keep plummeting compared to the Yen that is...

getting into really subtle design points, but..

i really like this gap between the front wheel and fender

it's a really subtle way of removing air from the front wheel well without having a hole-in-the-sheetmetal style air vent. the combination of the rear diffuser and exhaust could be done in a more subtle, tasteful manner but overall as everyone has been saying i like how they toned down the wildness of the mark II a lot!!

If that stays through to production, I will be worried about stone chips all up the side of my car!

I am really starting to not give a crap that this is a scion. aside from a few things like the exhuast/rims I am loving this cleaned up version.

I guess I have it in my head that scions are ugly, fwd, and slow. Seeing these pictures is really winning me over.

I doubt if it will get even close to a Boxster level..no "vents" on those..

Seriously people, this car is based on nothing more than a sporty corolla..the AE-86.

So the majority of this "aero" crap is just stylistic...just like the vents on a Mustang..

Yea I noticed that as well. In fact, so far, I'm loving every bit of this car <3 I like this angle the most

Compare that to my avatar! They really went after the MKI look, and it is stunning.
