On the topic, can a push button start manual be started by rolling the car and engaging a gear, like a regular key start manual?

Of course, the push-to-start button just engages the same wire the start position in a normal key based car would. There's no difference beyond how that wire becomes hot/is activated.

Of course it's not true.

LOL

I always love when dealership salesman and service people pretend to have knowledge about upcoming releases. I especially laugh when their defense is "you are not in the industry, I am". Yeah, cause selling cars at Bob's Nissan really puts you right in the middle of the auto manufacturering industry and gives you access to all kinds of inside secrets.

Nope because I have had Keichii Tsuchiya skills from the womb and I'm a beast at Gran Turismo. Reall cars can't be all different.

Alot. Its basically a cheap way of saying "I don't wanna actually spend time and put R&D into a car that shouldn't be that fast". I doubt the FT86 will have a fragile motor and I'd rather keep the motor that came with the car.

I'm with you on that....I was just thinking this...

[DrunkenMime]

so are those 17" wheels? I remember we had numerous debates on which wheel size Toyota would use. I think we'll get 17" & 18" (option)

Can wait to test drive this b*tch!

I'm going to write you off as one of the kids who will have there parents buy them this car (why would any self respecting parent buy a sports car for their kid to dive). You will then procced to do gay ricer mods and think you're a street racer. You will then get into either get into a fender bender or you'll just completely total the car. Your parents will then buy you a new car and the cycle will continue. Don't feel bad, cause you'll just be one of many who do the same.

Get a used beater so when you do upgrade to a sports car you will appreciate it.

There will be AC

Whats good here for someone with a trained eye is that the exterior photos minus the tacky lip kit give us a clear picture of most of the cars body lines and as I had suspected since i first saw test mules this car is very similar to the MK2 concept in terms of bodylines hood lines flairs etc just simpler nose and tail ends.

Its funny seeing the Modellista car looking so Tacky, I have seen a Modellista SXE10 altezza here In Barbados and its a beauty compared to other sxe10s. It also has the red trimmed interior which brings the altezzas interior to life.

Which Island are you from originally anyway?

Jamaica...i miss getting JDM stuff lol
