I keep thinking this no manual gearbox option is a BMW decision?

That must be around 4000 RPM! lol

Yes and I keep it at 4000rpm max. It barely warms up by the time I get to work which is basically 5 to 10 mins. Imagine the people in traffic thinking I'm some ricer.

I take it easy for most of it and once it's warmed may go for an extra 10-15 minute drive. I'm quite lucky to have some curvy roads just outside of town.

On topic, I can't wait to see this reveal!

Yeah, now I do Ancaster to Burlington with flex hours and work from home 2 - 3 days per week. Life is good!

Edit: Except for when I have to travel. I hate Frankfurt Airport.

I'm betting on a race version of the production version.

Remember how the Ft-86 I was different from the FT-86 II but that version was like 90% closer to production.

Remember this is a concept and not the final product.

I would call it "the mid cycle refresh" like everyone else suggested it needs.

I mean it's 4 years old now, the 86/brz got theirs after 4 years as well in 2017 lol.

this will definitely be more production ready. higher resolution enhance photo shows rear defroster and lines for the liftback and we could already clearly see the rain gutters.

Toyota please put in a rear wiper.
