Those wheels should look good after powercoating them to a solid colour.
Hate the current trend of every second Japanese car having two tone wheels. |

So I stopped by my local dealership to get some touchup paint for my car. While I was there I thought I'd ask about a Supra waiting list. I asked a salesman and he took me to the sales manager. He told me they're not doing a wait list until they get release date confirmation. Ok, no biggie. He then goes on to tell me about the 2 different engine types and pricing. He said it'll come with either a 4 cylinder starting at $69K or a twin turbo straight 6 starting at $100K! I did my best not to laugh, but it got even better. He then told me I should take a look at the new FRS GT they're getting next week. It's part of the Supra family and will have more power than the regular FRS. I smiled politely and told him thanks for the info.

I could be wrong on this, but seems like it could be either a 3.0L inline-6 BMW (340hp) or a 3.5L V-6 turbo (420hp). Base level would be 2.0L turbo BMW making 245hp.

^yay more hype in an article that contains almost nothing of substance! I love it when automakers talk about leaner, more bare bones sports cars...when the car in question still hasn't even debuted.

Then it would just be a more powerful more expensive 86. I'm glad it's a 2 seater.

I already have a more powerful 86. The shorter wheelbase two seater that is better balanced would be nice.
