I like the side profile, but the front view sucks, hopefully they will tone down the gapping mouth!

Odds are we will never see them in North America anyway. And is that a back seat buckle I see? A back seat? Really?

You'll see this car in US

Edit: To make more correct, you'll see this car in US, IF we get enough demands.

I wish the car wasn't so angry looking.

It looks fun though. This car is supposed to be under 20k right?

You think so? I am not convinced there is a big enough market for it. If the FRS has such a small buyer base I am not sure that there will be enough interest in something slightly smaller. At least not while leaving the FRS as is I guess.

Few sources say it'll come out (not sure Scion or Toyota).

Can't say much. Just gotta wait til TAS for more details

There must be something wrong with me...I LOVE IT! So much Toyota Sports 800 in there! I guess I'm biased though-the Sports 800 is one of my $30k dream cars. I will draw the line at the interior though-it reminds me a little too much of an MR2 Spyder.

If it's priced near a Corolla, it would be more attainable by the younger crowd. I do get people at work who get interested in the FR-S, but once they see the price, they move along and either end up getting a tC or more often, a Corolla S.

I won't be in the market for it, but I hope it comes to the US market. A miata competetor (lightweight, ~160 hp) would be fantastic for this market.

Also, I think we already have a nickname for it--"Whale Shark"
