Who has future plans to molest their FT-86? (examples inside)

Being that this car will undoubtedly gain a ton of interest from the younger generations I find it hard to believe that there is not going to be a lot of molesting going on when this baby debuts. I'm just curious who plans to wreck the nice stock body moldings, add scoops, spoilers, largest wheels that can fit (diametrically), paint interior trim, Lambo doors, and so on...

Being someone that respects the factory appearance (and resale value) I always find it funny when people do this type of stuff. Ebay has many examples which generally sell for a fraction of what they should sell for.

Alright so let's hear it. Who's going to make the FT-86 in their own image?

Lastly, whats your thoughts on this type of stuff?

Examples...

the third 350z barely passed the rice limit... if they went a lil less hardcore on it, it probably couldve looked decent.....i cant wait to rice my 86. the spoiler is gonna be 6ft high, and my paint will be seen from space. my cars gonna be like las vegas when im drivin' at night lol....jk but i doubt there will be too much rice, cuz ricers usually cant afford a car over 20k

You dont even need to ask, no one will say I'll rice out my car, put a ugly body kit on w/ a neon lights and spray paint my dash so I'll look cool on the meets and car shows. You can just look at the persons current car and for sure you'll see the future what they will do to the FT86.

All I may do is fit some wheels if I dont like the factory alloys.... Maybe even a kit.
I dont like vehicles that are over done and riced like those pics above.
I hate ugly big chrome rims

Looking forward to put a Sparco or Bride in the Driver Seat only....

then aftermarket midget rims.

Then in the future a Roll cage or Roll Bar.

I don't see how a wing would help seeing as I'll never be able to test it in a wind tunnel.

Supposing the stock steering wheel is leather wrapped with functional buttons like most new cars you would still be replacing it with a Sparco or Bride?

I think it will take a couple years for the used market to pick up, but yes.... Like with all cars, the ricers will come!



That said I really want to do some clean astactic mods on my next car. A nice set of wheels (maybe rays), Huge BBK, exhuast, maybe even a new bumper if I don't love the stock.

Some car owners should be shot! Once this car has been out for a couple of years, there will be rice!
