Toyota FT-86 four-door sedan variant rumoured

If a recent report is correct, Toyota has green-lighted a sedan variant of the FT-86.

Ohhh, a TE72 owner on these threads? Got any pics of your car?

OT: Oh boy, a sedan. Can't wait. /end sarcasm

Hmm...since the car is based on a Legacy platform, and in theory the car can be longer then the FT-86, my money are on the FR-S for Scion and a bigger GT car for Toyota(probably called Celica

) that will go against the Mustang, Camaro and Genesis Coupe. With a turbocharged 4 cylinder boxer in base trims and a natural aspired/turbo V6 in superior trims. Oh, that's such a sweet dream, isn't it?

Fixed.

That's a popular mod with the 4 Runner owners since it's double din. Even though it's made by Pioneer, it still looks oem and their displays have always look so outdated.

Scion sound systems aren't that bad right? what company makes them? Pioneer?

Some are manufactured through Fujitsu and I believe the newer Scions have the Pioneer h/u. It's not bad and actually is even a mild step up from an OEM unit but I don't think it has the full specs/power output as an actual Pioneer aftermarket h/u.

I remember Rockford Fosgate had a joint partnership on the older Nissan Frontiers and it wasn't that impressive. Even the JBL stereo systems on the current Tacoma sucks.

2011 Scion

It's a pioneer it seems I forgot can you get nav with Scion?

RRnold · 04-27-2011, 08:05 PM

the iQ has the latest version h/u. Even though I really hate to say this but it looks pretty good.

Oh crap I forgot to tag this thread so I could follow it. Now I'm behind. Summary anyone?

enc0re · 04-27-2011, 10:03 PM

I appreciate that Scion uses standard form factor stereos.

I see. So in other words, there's no news on a Toyota release and this was a mis-interpretation.

I cant see toyota and scion selling the same car here. i see most giving the extra couple grand for the toyota and then thats the end of the scion brand that means bad marketing decision on toyotas part....in other word if it does happen it more than likely be a lexus.
