It's slower than a Mini Cooper John Cooper Works ($30,600 USD).

Great to see all the new info coming in, but why are we only seeing part of the brochure?

Surely who evers got hold of this can just upload all the pages?

So, fake or Toyota leaking stuff on purpose to keep interest?

At this point I don't think I have a choice. I plan on having this car for a long time. I am SUPER excited about this car, especially after these specs came out. But the high-spec trim has more of what I am looking for, even though it is a little heavier. Big alloys, automatic climate control, leather steering wheel, upgraded audio. I want to get all that stuff upfront and not do anything to the far after it. Can't wait to get down to the local Scion/Toyota dealer and sit in one. *Drool* Waiting till the 2014 model years start coming out is gonna be really hard. But I know I will be in a better position to buy.

Big props out to everyone who tracked down all this news and to the folks who translated all this stuff for us. THANK YOU!!!

Plus turbos these days are super efficient so they boost right away, no bs lag like when they were all using journal or thrust bearings back in the day.
I agree that a small ball bearing turbo would be nice, but if TRD came out with a supercharger that would be very tempting.

I'm really happy with the specs. If it looks as it does in my imagination in person, then I wouldn't mind pickong one of these up. Fun car, looks great, RWD, and low.. oh yeah....

I don't want it to race really, just have a blast from point A to B.

Ahh yes keep the warranty... I can respect that... If I can keep the warranty with the SC and run it up to saaaay 350whp, I would be down... otherwise, screw the warranty, turbo and E85 for me. shoot for 400whp and some suspension and trans upgrades to handle the power.

Damn I can't keep up with all the info the past few days!! But I love it

Lower left corner of the accessories chart - is that optional black bumpers and wheels for a Tofu-ten AE86 look?!?

Agreed!

My goal is a ball bering turbo (HTA 3076?) with 93 in 350 whp and 400 whp on pump gas.

Other wise, do we need change the transfer case if we pushing this number?

I like what I hear. I just wonder which spec Scion will bring here. I wouldn't mind the base with optional HIDs and a leather wrapped wheel, but I have a feeling we'll get the high spec. There's always the Scooby too.

Engine is unimpressive but it was somewhat expected. Even with DI they couldnt match the S2000 torque per liter, let alone power which we really knew it wouldnt be close given the engine humble origins (the subaru f20 is really a bad starting point for a sports car engine).

I do like the weight though! Hope chassis rigidity is good.

Considering the whole car, its a nice package. A light, 200hp, RWD coupe with a 6 speed manual and LSD, and hopefully Toyota reliability at 25k? Count me IN.
