Tokyo Motor Show press days starts tomorrow (tonight here in North America)!!
So the Tokyo Motor Show press days starts tomorrow morning in Tokyo (tonight here in North America), and I presume that the Ft-86 will be unveiled to the press journalists.
What's everyone guessing or hoping will be revealed about this car? I want to know: -- engine specs and performance #'s -- weight -- if the production form will basically resemble the concept form -- solid date for production Did I miss anything? Think we'll get this info?

I think, we can get bout 3 out of 4 of stuff you wrote, but I highly doubt resemblance of concept to production model gonna be same. They still have 2 yrs, so I'm pretty sure they gonna change the body shape and other etc.

Ya imma agree with ichitaka on that, im sure the body lines will change a bit from the concept to the production model as it happens with just about every car

Why do they have to change it up so much anyway? I guess to meet safety standards and all that other nonesense? Such a shame, so many nice concept cars have been butchered by the time they hit production.

Without a doubt.
Its going to be the Engine bay shot pictures. That is going to be the money shot. It should give the people confirm assumption into confirm facts. Also finding the information within the engine bay area such as the coding of the possible chassis name, Toyota's engine code series numbers, etc. Just small things to confirm some stuff into plausible facts. |
