Could be but i think the crease below it could lead up to the hole (use 1 sculpted crease line instead of 2) like they did with the previous concepts. Then again, I'm no engineer... :P

I wanted some numbers and figures but I am happy with what we got


gonna still try and remove the scion symbols everyone if possible


Off Topic: Does anyone here work? I took my break at this time so I can check out the news and wow 30+ pages already

I go to school and work, doesn't stop me from checking my iPod during class to check the news

And even at work I have a computer I can play with a little bit while waiting for something exciting to happen lol.

As far as the concept goes, I'm really impressed. They didn't turn it into a toaster! Though I think it'd be very hard to turn the FT-86 into a tC toaster design, I thought they'd try it lol. Maybe they had a go at it and in the end realized Toasterizing the FT just wouldn't work? Eitherway, Good job with the design, it has a few elements from both MkI and MkII concepts and blended it nicely.

Though the rear diffuser is way to It looks like half the car was left behind on the highway or something. And the SCION light thing needs to get toned way the fuck down (to not saying SCION at all preferably) and either a normal light bar, or nothing in its place.

The front looks gorgeous, the side profile is perfect.



And look how small it is!!

Great job on the photos Hachi, your my personal Jesus Christ!

I got ya. I like the aggressiveness though.

Same thing regarding taillights. I prefer the Mk1 style.

I hope they use a similar LED lighting treatment inside the headlight housing as the Mk1

Yeah I agree, 1 crease line from the Mk1 looks much better

Before I go (Damn I wish I had more time to look at all those pictures)

I see the dash look very simple (the way I wish it become) WOW look at the dash in this picture? Loooooks realllllly simple and clean

Funny how the original Mk1 concept STILL looks the most production-ready among all the concepts, with its proper door handles and realistic side mirror and wheel designs...

Yep, that's cause we all know the Mk1 looks the best. Seems almost like they got the release of the prototypes wrong. They should have released Mk2 first, then Mk3 then Mk1 last. Mk1 does look the closest to production level.

Anyone got a decent desktop background of this one @ 1280x1024px? Do want one for my work PC but I don't have any editing proggies here. Preferably one of the media polished pics...

[SOB]

So were still creating concepts? Where's the specs? Engine, trans, power, interior, actual wheels, actual brakes, actual body....?

Even though the styling does look good, I am dissapoint.

Tough cookies man.

Seriously....

Supposed to handle like this


While accelerating & riding like this


And looks like a Japanese version of this



And hopefully is as reliable, fuel efficient and and priced similarly to this


..... disappointment? Rly?

i mentioned something along those lines, but i wasnt the only one.
EJ dont stress, thermodynamics is the easiest part of engineering (for me anyway)
and did anyone else notice the brakes? they are mounted to the inside of the rim!! how the fuck are we to change the wheels??
and with the trunk lid scion branding its just a pannel that looks like it removes (if noone mentioned it yet )
anyway im sure this has all been mentioned already :p
im a few hours behind (just saw the car)

HOLY SHIT ITS BEAUTIFUL!
