Being that my Celica has the Action Package, I actually really like it. But it's true. :/

Yeah, it's the smallest concept out of the three.

The Mk3 [Scion FR-S] has my vote too. I've been staring at pictures of all three all evening. The Mk1 is clean & simple but the surfacing is kind stoich and old. The Mk2 is what really piqued my interest in the car as a potential future option, but comparing it back-to-back to the Mk3 shows how they took some mechanized design out and added more sex and curvature to the car, and that really appeals to me. The Mk3 is clearly the least functional of all the concepts, but I certainly hope the proportions an curves are closest to production.

I wonder if maybe it's just a color preference? Anyone have a MkIII in the same color as the MkII?
I like the Mark 2 too, but I like Mark 1 better. Mark 2 is kinda meh with the LED, but the front and headlight are sweet.

MKIII - Don't like the mirrors, they're ****s for putting SCION on the back like that, and the rear overhang is a bit too long. Other than that its great. I really like the airflow paths throughout; it makes it look like they care. The brakes wont make it I'm sure..

3. The rear deck is extended a little and it just looks perfect.

Nah I agree, the rear extension looks bad. I imagine they did that for more trunk space, and that's why I dislike the rear because it no longer has the curve that the MkII and Celica had:



But I guess with it being extended now there's more space to fit a huge shopping cart handle on the rear!!!!

Something about its simplicity.

Scion's rear overhang is indeed WAY to long. It looks...silly.

Although I had no problems with the MkII, I do respect that Toyota seemed to have listened to the suggestions made by a lot of people on the forums. (Even if they took away the things I liked the most But hey they can't please everyone, right?)

I still love the MkI. Pure and simple, but good looking at the same time. That being said, I voted the Mk3. It takes the aggressiveness that I like in the Mk2 and takes away most of the styling elements that I don't like and replaces them with bits from the Mk1. Then they sculpt it and tone it .
Simply gorgeous.

It's like.... the Mk1 is girl next door Sandra Bullock and the Mk3 is Angelina Jolie.... looks wise.



One has to hope that Toyota/Subaru does not disappoint with the final design after this. I get the deep sinking feeling that they are going to totally troll all of us and release something that looks like a piece of shit compared to any of the concepts.

Anybody ever contemplate the "what if" of each region getting a different looking 86?

Anyway, Subaru, let's see what you got.

I really like the MKI, for me it look more production ready than MKII & MKIII but right now I'm digging 90% on the scion FR-S, I like the fenders, the duct under the lights (hope its for something not just looks) ala ferrari 458 italia, side skits, extended over hang on the trunk reminds me of my ae86 trd wing, thank God no LED fog lights & the drop vent hood again reminds me of my drop vent CF hood on my ae86.

All in all cant wait to test drive this baby hope it goes as well as it looks.

What I dont like are rear diffuser (too big to my teast), big scion on the back (not cuz, it says scion but again too big for what I like).
