Concept! Not production, and we're talking about them showing a production, or modified production.

SHINCHU86 · 11-02-2011, 08:11 PM

yeah but.. FR-S! SEMA! lol

FormulaJDM · 11-02-2011, 11:26 PM

I finally got to see it in person! I knew it was small, but surprised how small it looks in person. Like a 3/4 Gen Coupe size, which I like. Sema was a good show this year. Interesting also to see Honda had what looked like a production supercharged CR-Z engine in their booth.

^^^^^ any pics?

SHINCHU86 · 11-03-2011, 09:52 AM

yeah i am thinking the size is what a 2+2 s2000 would be like. especially with the low nose.

they must have trucked that thing over to vegas immediately after knotts berry farm huh? it gets around!

Too bad the Scion PRODUCTION version won't look anything like that...

How much do you think those rear shoulders are flared out compared to what we will see on the production one.

Its difficult to judge from the latest renders and the camo cars.

ForReal-Someday · 11-03-2011, 11:35 AM

True. The production version won't look anything like that. But I think Five Axis has seen the hype around this car, and they are planning on creating body kits for it. I'm hoping for a kit to drop that hood even lower which should be possible from the pictures they have of the hood open at the Nurembergring race.

It looks like they added an inch in the rear, and in the front. It kind of looks like they raised the front fenders an inch or so as well. Then they carried that Thickness around the front bumper. That's how they had room for the vent in front of the hood.

Don't see why not. They did with the Scion tC (1st gen). There were mutliple tuned up versions, including an all Carbon body HKS built one.

Alfie · 11-03-2011, 11:00 PM

I had realized how small it will be too!
That's why im going with WHITE! It's the safest colour!
Next time you're in a traffic jam, squint your eyes and most cars dissappear but the white ones really stand out!

Any other colour and I will constantly have to be driving defensively in this thing!

Heres a preview video I filmed for AE Performance. I got a ton of shots that will be in the full length edit. The car is so small!
