In a nutshell, let's give them another chance to redeem themselves with the "FR-S"! Is that too much to ask? 4 days...just 4 more days!


The term "new dimensions" has been on that site for years bro.


I find it funny, when someone ask..."that's a Scion right". of course I say yes, and there next response is something along the lines of "They are made by Toyota aren't they"....

People who are old enough and mature enough, recognize the car as a Toyota.

Exactly, those same people also recognize that although toyota's may not be super aggressive or performance heavy, in the end they are really good cars. If anybody says Toyota's suck they honestly dont know jack squat or their head it to far up their asss

NOOO! I'm not going to go THAT much on pink. LOL. White body with pink rims. Pinkish/redish/purplish rims. 2 different colors in the rims (Assuming its going to be like the BBS CS 4s or 5s). And a sakura design where the rear wheels are to the trunk. Thats WAYY too much pink IMHO. Keep a little bit of feminine and uphold the "Bad-assery" female driver look.

At this point I hope Scion= MK2 version for the kids and the Toyota/Subaru= Mk1 for the more adult minded kids. If we don't get the Toyota in NA, hopefully the Subaru will be more tamed in looks than the Scion.

If there are 2 models it'll be the other way around. The MKII looks much more premium and aggressive than the MKI, as such you'd give a watered/toned down MKI to Scion and the aggressive, suped up version to Toyota, heck throw some more stuff on it and they could slap a Lexus badge on there - namely a toyota/yamaha v6, lexus interior, some more carbon fiber

possible, or maybe not.

At the NY Show Lexus is not just showing a new design theme/new GS, they are also showing off the basis for Lexus interiors from now on...given the importance of that for the brand they may or may not show off the interior for the 86. 50/50

Toyota has made some great 4bangers in its history. 4A-GE, 4A-GZE, 3S-GE, 3S-GTE,... and not having this, what looks to be what might be a great chaise, why would you want a Toyota emblem when it doesn't have a Toyota Motor since they are called Toyota Motor Corp.
Ive said this a few times before...
Toyota has used boxer engines in their cars before.
The 1st production Toyota sports car (was it called the S800?) used a 790cc twin carb flat twin
