Julia Roberts looks a bit awkward. The LFA is a dog's breakfast.

Lesson to all the young guys, never disrespect the awkward girls as they often blossom into the ones you want to like you.

I view the 86 in a similar vein. It's a big plain, slightly goofy, but with lots of potential. Unfortunately as parents, Toyota seem to be dressing her in carnival clothes rather than beautiful dresses.

I wouldn't touch JR with someone else's d....

i dunno why everyone is hating on the wing, I think it looks great! Reminds me of some of the best JDM classics who looked amazing with wings like this....

The headlights. I'd like some of those.

steeloyangster · 09-11-2012, 08:34 PM

Love it, love it, love it. I think it fits the body lines very nicely. I honestly feel like it's a trend to hate on large spoilers. No one feels like they are allowed to like something that is pleasing to the shape of the vehicle unless it is "subtle". I would like subtle too, mind you, but this is just fantastic. It sings to everyone who sees it. I'm happy with it. I'd love to see it come to America. And I would gladly pay for one (Actually, I'll wait to hear prices first.) But it reminds me of the spoilers of some of the great Japanese sports cars from the 90's. 3000GT, Supra, RX7. They all look great still. The FRS deserves nothing less.

I'm sure there are other people who really really don't like it, but if you do like it, don't be cynical. Just be honest with yourself. YOU KNOW YOU WANT IT!

I'm more excited about the Direzza II being on the wheels. Looking forward to their stateside release...

Looks like me and you are the only ones who will ever appreciate it... to all others... YOURE DUMMIES!

Don't forget about me! Trust me when I say this; I don't easily approve many bodykits out there now a days... But this one makes sense to me.
Sure the spoiler can be a little bit smaller; but it's definitely not an eye sore.

Two thumbs all the way up!

Not a fan.. I'm sure this would drive the price up to $30k before ttl!!! and no supercharger, CAI, or anything that could make it faster save for the tune??? pfft, i'd rather wait for the trd supercharger and buy that instead of this.

sho220 · 09-11-2012, 09:58 PM

I'd really like to see Toyota spend a little more time trying to fix the chirping and CEL issues and a little less time worrying about silly stick-on plastic cladding and horrendous wings...Maybe Toyota can start giving away these kits as consolation prizes to those who have had their cars at the dealers repair shops for weeks or months on end?

Laika · 09-11-2012, 09:58 PM

I like it a lot!

But to be clear...I like it the way someone may like a pornstar. She's great to look at on your computer but you don't want to live with her on a day to day basis. You don't even want to meet her because of the connotations. I would never own a car that looked like this but I can appreciate it looking at it.

Does that make sense to anyone else? Maybe I should go back to the off-topic forum.

Love the wheels and suspension upgrade... could do without the rest.
