FR-S / FT-86 Concepts: Mk1 vs. Mk2 vs. Mk3

[john]

MK3 has my vote. Gotta love where the gas door is

[cyde01]

i voted mark i, but mark iii is a close second. on the mark iii, i don't like the extra creases and vents underneath the headlights, prefer the look of the mark i brake ducts, and the fenders look great but maybe a little over the top. on the fenders, if they could maybe split the difference between the mark i and mark iii that would be the best of both worlds. as far as the rear end i think the simplistic rear of the mark i is my fav, but i do prefer the LFA look mark iii rear end as opposed to the wonky mark ii rear end. i do like the headlights on the mark iii the best.

It is just funny because it seems in the polls the most recent one gets all the votes. Look at the last poll with Mk1 vs. Mk2 . But now Mk2 is getting no love but at least Mk1 is consistent with the few of us.

BTW: Hachi.

With these shots.. it looks like you're using a 24-70mm 2.8?

And I'm going to guess with the body... 60D?

After looking MkI & MkIII pics over and over and over and OVER... conclusion, can't decide.

I like MkI for sure, simple and sweet... but feels lil bit too simple. MkIII is evo ver (right way) MkI, but feels like it evolved too much. If they show lil bit plain/dull ver of MkIII, I totally go for that!

Wow!!! I'm the first and only person to have voted on the MkII.

I wonder if maybe it's just a color preference? Anyone have a MkIII in the same color as the MkII?

that looks downright evil

i think besides other things mentioned before, tone down the wheel arches in the front for the mk 3 and get that thing into production.

This is weird to me because I didn't think I was so biased to colors. Especially since red is my favorite color...

The press release states the car was modeled with the 2000GT in mind, and the arches resemble that so I doubt they will go unless they get more input and change the inspiration.

Citation:

The profile, inspired by the Toyota 2000GT, reveals a hood-line that is remarkably sleek and low, made possible by the boxer’s architecture.

Mark III > Mark I > Mark II

Mark III is Mark I on steroids... that caused a deformed backside (tail lights).

The Mark III looks muscular and with the 20x8.5 20x10.5 staggered wheel setup makes it look like a Exotic-lite car.

if Toyota ever makes the production close to this concept (maybe 18x8 18x9 wheel setup), with realistic sized Brake discs and keep the side aero skirts and rear diffuser moulding.... its GOLD.... assuming the price is reasonable.. (<30K USD, <60K AUD (my area))

i dont mind the wheel arches as they are at all, but it's something i feel like they could end up watering down possibly just a thought

Hm... Maybe f17x7/r17x9 might be better I think. 17's still can put decently big brakes (like STI's have 17x8 w Brembos)

Yes please! yes please! yes please! 17's please, no 18s or 19s. As I said in another thread, give me the smallest wheels that will fit over the largest brakes they can fit on the car.
