I guess that's true. Upon re-reading key lines in the article:

"Of course, our idea here isn’t to replace the current GT86 coupe...

So there you have it, Toyota. A brilliant new business plan for a car your customers never knew they wanted.

Who’s in?"

Think out side the box Joe, the C Pillar angle will change allowing for the rear seat to be moved back.

^ Personally, i'd say its very well done photoshop.

'Never have liked wagons. I like the idea behind it though-- to make the GT86 more accessible and 'out there.'

If it comes with a hatch, it'll be perfect. More of the M coupe than the Z4 (E86) coupe. But still a win. Think of the BMW 1 series 3 door we never got in the U.S.
