These were in digital format (PDF) so there are no hard copy versions anyway, so you're not missing out on anything someone else has

But, I do have some Subaru BRZ debut brochures and press materials (JDM!! ) that I'll be auction off (free of course) on twitter and/or facebook soon.

- By locking up from low speed, it provides a more direct acceleration feel.
- Minimized the response (lag) between shifts
M mode:
- In addition to improving throttle response, can enjoy gear changes like a manual transmission

Domo arigato!!! damn, no details... but good info nonetheless. it confirms that they are using IS-F style early torque converter lock up to get better response!

No. All four of those cars are photoshopped, presumably showing how Toyota envisions enthusiasts will customize the car. Toyota has stated, unequivocally, that there will never be a factory turbo'd 86. Ever.







Really. Ever.
