FT86 as a Scion!?! With 2.5L?!?! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Midship Runabout · 10-10-2010, 09:30 PM

So this will be the 84th thread about this subject.

Come on guys. Think about what this car has been said to be since the start.
2.0 RWD Light weight TOYOTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No 2.5L BS. No AWD BS. No Scion BS. No Supra replacement BS. No 2013 BS

200 Hp NA is plenty in a decently light car. If your dead set on a turbo, the aftermarket will have a bolt on kit available probably before you even get your car.

All im saying is some of you guys are really asking for to much from this car. Its in its own class. Not a godzilla killer, nor a fly weight miata smasher. Its by itself. If the 86 is a success, Toyota would be dumb not to continue with that line up and produce an affordable Supra replacement/Z competitor. Hell maybe even that baby 86 to take on the mx-5.

So lets just wait till Toyota announces this will be a 2.5l turbo awd Scion supra replacement.

So, Toyota badge in Japan, Subaru badge in Europe and Scion badge in America. WHY? This car should be sold as a Subaru and a Toyota everywere in the world, that's the way you make money from platform sharing dumpasses.
Just kill Scion, make the FT-86 a Toyota, turn the tC into the Corolla coupe, the xD into the Urban Cruiser(like in Europe) and the xB into the Toyota CityBox or something. Scion was a fail brand from the beginning.
