Breaking: standard Scion FR-S / Toyota FT-86 model and aero kits revealed

[ryangt]

Uh... this could be the test from germany >.> they mentioned in the reviews from yesterday they did it on a open airfield. I am guessing this is an interior shot from one of those tests.

Are there any more of the interior shots? The file name is ftinterior2.jpg so maybe there are more?

I really like this interior. The shifter looks great with a great looking shift knob. The white tech with chrome surround looks good in the overall black background. Love the red stitching everywhere.

The only one thing I hate is the window with the divider. Its a distraction. Why do they want to divide the window? So that you can open the little window to let air in while keeping the main one closed? Why can't you just crack the whole window open a little to let air in?

So, i'm going to just believe that this is the Scion Version.

Also isnt the Top Gear U.S track kind of in the dessert. Every time I have seen a power lap or w/e they call it there is sand all around. While in the pic there is clearly grass.

True. ^

There's got to be more pictures! where are these people getting them from! Hachi where is the verdict on this?!

Nice interior shot, wonder if that's the radio they will be using?
Prefer if it was like the Modellista interior shot and either be removed or hidden. All you need is an aux input and smartphone and you'll have a Phone, GPS, Radio and MP3 player.

Photos from VLN show a trunk, no hatch. Guess I'll have to load my track tires into the back seat like I do already.

Don't forget to throw down a old sheet on the seats first.

I like the base version except the rims are ugly and the fender insert with a badge looks really bad. Glad to see options. Now how about perf. Numbers?

[BronxBomber13]

[rL-gT]

Loving the vehicle.

As for the tails... Cover em with a light smoke vinyl?

All I know is I am glad to see the postion of the head rest. From the interior shorts of the Modellista model with the forward pointing headrest i was nervous cause those are uncomfortable (for me at least) but with the interior shot from the tests those look so much better.

Yes background looks like Europe. You get that post WWII feeling from the buildings.

Thanks for update guys! So much info in such a short period of time!!

I wonder why they didn't include the STI/GTS type kit that we've been seeing?!

Im 100% certain that Toyota has leaked all these pictures on purpose to build up the hype around the cars and what will actually be revealed in Tokyo will be the production car's real name.

So looking closely at the zoomed in pic..



We know that it says Toyota 2000GT (トヨタ 2000GT) on the right...

And we know that on the left under the FT86 pic it says Sport(s) (スポーツ)

My money is on the FR-S name being on both the Toyota and the Scion.

As Front-Rear-Sports (which is what i recall FRS standing for) would fit the picture.

前リアスポーツ

Apologies for my bad translations. I dont know any Japanese and im just using the online translator.

Yeah, I was looking at the too... in the end I think they just put it as トヨタスポーツ (Toyota Sports)... that's my conclusion.
