Yes it does. Almost identical. I think we can be sure that the production version will look like this. Not bad at all.

Just want to say Hello first time poster. I have been lurking around this forum for about 8 months. When I saw the leak this morning i was very happy to see it, minus the chrome molding (eww). The interior is ok, the steering wheel seems a tad big, and I hope those head rests dont point forward... my brothers pontiac g5 has head rests like that... god is it annoying. But over all very pleased with the way the ft-86 is looking. Hurry up tokyo auto show!

If they made the seats wide like the fit... I'd probably slide around more trying to shift than drive normally. Lol

Edit: OMG THIS GOT STICKIED.

Most likely they will be wide enough to accomodate most drivers. It's somewhat stupid from a business perspective to do anything else (ie, eliminate a fair percentage of potential buyers with seats they can't fit in). There are always aftermarket alternatives anyways

This is awesome news that the production version will not be drastically different from the concepts.

I wanted to mention that the rear CFL lights on the red car shown on this awesome site last week that run all the way across under the deck spoiler reminds me so very much of my beloved FujiHeavy Industries SVX, and that's a good thing. *praying they include the wrap-around lights for the BRZ*

Also can anyone confirm the "sub-300 Hp figures hinted this week, or have a more accurate figure about how far under 300 it will be???


Cheers, we are all getting closer to reveal day...

The brochure mentions no technical details of the production car, but shows plenty of the exterior and interior.

It leads me to believe that in addition to the direct injected 4cyl (which toyota has been calling D4S since early on) could mean a flat 6, and 3.7L 6 engine options? Can we get a translation of the characters after those call outs?

That's the color for Modellista kits. I've already posted that color names.

I believe someone said those are color codes.

Edit: ichi just beat me.

"37J" "D6S" "D4S" are Subaru Paint Codes.

EDIT: You guys are way too fast haha

Tail lights are still BLAH
NO trim on my gawd its ugly.
Interior looks nice but all black guages please
non slanted head rests a less crowded appearing steering wheel
All in all it looks fairly good.

Looks pretty close to Rampant's rendering so I really dig the exterior minus the side molding. The top interior picture not so much...too much red but the bottom interior pics look alot better. That steering wheel reminds me to much of the one in the evo

Kind of bland.

Also, I thought in the spy pics the hood swooped downward and made an indention kind of like the Fr-s concept? I don't see it on these photos.

Overall its turning out to be a good looking car.

People want a cheap and lightweight FT86. This is what you will get in regards to a simple but functional interior. I like it Keep It Simple Stupid. No need to cluter up the steering wheel or dash with busy crap. This is exactly what I want from a drivers oriented interior.
