Interesting, my subaru actually has rear calipers but the parking brake is a drum style located on the interior hub area of the rotor, its strange.

Thats crazy, I wonder what their intention behind it is, and if it will make to production. That would be something to look for at the geneva auto show. Any pictures of the other rear tire to see if its on that one too?

They are a pain in the ass to change shoes on and they don't have a lot of bite when your Supra is running 315s.
