Is that a viable option?
No, there are pics, videos on the blue one under the hood. No turbo/supercharger so far on any of them. About this new red one, no pics under the hood just yet.

Edit: One thing I'm thinking is the plate holder thing in the front bumper seems to be the long way as for European plates. It also seems to be attached.

I'd love to see a shot directly of the rear end, or a rear 3/4 view to get a better perspective of how the mega wing matches the tumblehome and transitions to the fenders.

I love it. Is this red one a different car and not a Photoshop of the blue one?

I'm pretty excited for this edition. I would like some performance benefits with it though.

Blue one wears GT-86 plate, this one has 86 plate.

Talking Hoping for the best options!

I also hope we can get this Version in New Zeaaland.Definately want this type.Just hope all the dial inside come with the digital display for the A/C as well.With options to choose what ever options are available for japan...

Toyota New Zealand are so tight lipped about this car wont say a word even on asking about it.

I've only seen two sites with these... The second ones are from: http://speedhunters.com/archive/2011...toyota-86.aspx

The first ones from http://www.evo.co.uk/carreviews/evoc...ota_gt_86.html But it makes no sense why they are in there...

I can agree with that a duckbill on that aggressive kit would do nicely.

or if that wing was a tad shorter I wouldn't mind it so much

Now I am really really considering getting that big a*s wing for my FireStorm (red) FR-S
and the wheels look RS Watanabe-esque, especially in the second shot
