Damn. The "real" gen-2 86 is going to be one ugly car.

Style always (well almost) flows from the top down. Now that the FR-S is out from under the Scion umbrella, look for the stupendously ugly Lexus "aggressiveness" to find its way to the 86. Upscale, ya' know. Not one f-ing dime will be spent on making it a fundamentally better car.

I'll take this, all day every day, over that Cylon crap.



Or this, which totally matches the rest of the 13-16 body.
Added: That's classic Ferrari sexy. Simple, smooth, round. Not nearly "edgy" enough for a car that can't get out of its own way.

That is f-in ugly. I'm assuming no pics with the lights on because even Toyota thinks the LED barrage looks stupid.

Fuck you, Toyota. How can you fuck up a Scion?

Added: The "alcantara" everyone loves looks like crap. What am I missing? LOL, no, not everyone who has an FR-S is insecure enough to have re-badged.

Let me be the first to say this. Certain angle, that front bumper looks nice... just certain angle, it's weird.

I'll have my final say AFTER seeing it in person.

I am NOT the target market for that ugly thing. I bought the car not because of its looks, but for what it is as a car. I do think the 13-16 is one sexy car, but this thing is trying way too hard.

How about leave the body alone and add 30 HP if you want to make it "aggressive"?

Watched vid again. Hey, Toyota! You put a front end that ugly on a car, it should have enough power that nobody should have to see it in the mirror.

I can't deny that my age is not a factor in my reaction, but ugly is ugly. That front end is an even worse match for the rest of the body than the 13-16 is.

"Refresh" as in "Fresh Step" cat-shit box filler.
