Anybody remember the GRMN SPORTS FR Concept PLATINUM?
Saw this on Reddit, I have no recollection of it. Apparently shortly after the FR-S/BRZ was released, GRMN had a turbocharged, supercharged concept that looks remarkably like the current prototype of the 86 refresh.
Here's an article describing the concept. |

Not a fan of those headlights.Other than that,it looks pretty cool,and having a FI option always seems like a good idea.

Did you hear about the TUNER package? It comes with an exhaust the dumps into the passenger footwell so you get all the volume and catless stench you need, with optional antilag and an Eaton 18 speed!
Jesus, this thing will be a disappointment if it doesn't come with 80 treadwear tires that last 50,000 miles |
