Can someone translate this news from Tokyo Auto Salon 2014?
http://car.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/...11_630483.html
I am mainly interested in the Style Cb design, the race cars, and that cool center-seat Tamiya collaboration at the end. |

● 86 × × Cb/86 Style Style Cb spyder
model was born from a project by the Women's Development team. By changing the bumper and headlights, the change in expression with the familiar, of the 86 original model the front face "a little scary". By front 75mm, 15mm extension to the rear, thereby realizing a stylish form good proportions while there is a volume at the same time. The interior is coordinated with a focus on leather of dark brown. To produce a sense of quality adult can ride for a long time. Model of the coupe body in the schedule on the market, the price of development with the aim of 4.5 million yen to 5 million yen. that's for the weird headlight edit: and now that someone posted that, i don't need to translate the rest.

Now THAT is a nice front end. So much better than the Cylon face that does not fit the rest of the car. Somebody make a front end like that, then shut up and take my money.
Sexy. |

Somebody build a replacement nose like this for the 86.
I'd take a sawsall to the lip on that one too. How critical is an air dam/curb feeler on a car that rarely goes over 50 like the twins?

I'm sorry but I think this looks awful. This front end could work on another car. Not the 86 IMO. |

The last image looks like the Toyota Camatte 57s concept. I don't think its made for the street.
