I know it's camouflage but the Lexus look is so craptastically ugly on the car I almost wish they would do it, in an ironic way.

is this really a camo 86? obviously it is a 2nd gen, but seems like just an aftermarket lexus styled bumper like the 2 or 3 that were made for the 1st gen twins.

Looks the same to me.
Also, isn't it possible this is a multi-car announcement? Toyota/Subaru have already announced they are working on more than just the 86/BRZ. This could be an open update on their strategy, highlighting the Twins since they are likely first in the queue.

So they confuse the masses thinking its NOT the twins by providing a view at a specific angle that shows off some shadowing/reflection that you cant tell what the heck is being reflected. (plus none of the subaru/toyota lineup has a badge that sits on a blank space of fascia, they're all within a grille in some manner)
Should have known as much. Plus if you look at the badges, its not at a direct straight on shot of the badges either, you can see some thicker shadowing at the top, indicating the light source is coming from somewhere skewing towards the front. With an actual car (old or new) i couldnt tell what angle that was, cuz i dont think any press photos are from that angle. |
