So when will we get updated about FT-86? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Dark · 04-20-2010, 03:45 AM

Not sure if anyone posted that kind of thread. It's been awhile that we haven't gotten any update, Toyota should announce s.th about FT-86 soon. Anyone has any idea?

They will hype some auto show presentation and when the time comes they will say "zoMg we r making teh sp0rts carrrr, lite wait FTW !!!! >_^"

I won't give up, but It's ridiculously long to wait. Just give the announcement every months of s.th. LOL

Yeah they should give us some indications on what new progress has been made with it!?

It's been put on hold. With all the bad publicity, they can't afford to ring out a car that accelerates and the tail steps out.

lol.... j/k

Seriously though! Toyota is definitely in the hot seat, especially in America. Getting all sorts of overprotective recalls and whatnot...

What are you talking about man? GX was performing drifting, which is what we want FT-86 to do. We gotta request Toyota to get help from GX engineers in FT-86's project. FT-86 will be recalled when it comes out for being a badass sport coupe. XD

.....FT-86 will get recalled because it drives in a straight line...

How comes it will be recalled for driving on straight line? Or a car like FT-86 is supposed to be driven only in the corner?

Lol because they said this will be the best drift car ever built lol. The 53%weigh at the back helps it slide out... The CEO or lead devloper said so look in the thread that gas quotes in it.

NESW20 · 04-21-2010, 01:03 AM

i thought it was 53% front 47% rear... either way, i'm not huge into drifting. i hope it grips like crazy when i want it to.

I like drifting... er watching. I really want to learn how to drift, but I can't learn with my current car.

(IS250AWD = no Traction off)
When the FT-86 release, some1 should open a section to teach a drift noob like me.
