I'm saying if the car is 200hp and over 2800lbs, it wouldn't be functional under all but very few circumstances.

Here's some more pics... Courtesy of Teamspeed.com Spied: The Toyota FT-86 (The New Celica) - Teamspeed.com

Although (Apparently Isamu can see them anyways

) but for the rest of us, you can see it's not quite as striking as the Scion concept released earlier, but you can see a more refined actual car model. Looks kinda boring now...

is it just me, or do the swirls do a terrible job of hiding what the car looks like

Because it's still and you can look at lighting/shading no. But imagine passing it on the street @ speed, you'd never notice 1 line.

they put them on so it shows the lines?

I know what they are for, but sitting still it just doesn't do the job it's intended for

lol Cwiz, you bastard... you can basically make out the front, but it does a way better job in this pics... but yea, I still liked the older concepts better... meh

More pics with it around the 'ring! I'll add some to the OP.

I want them to go back to the FT-86 Concept II design like in the OP. That one is pure sex. Black 'sports' car ftw.

I just hate how they unveil the concept... Covered in angles that catch your attention and spark imagination.

Then because we somehow 'have to' you get the test mule, and eventually the final rendition of the sales model and all those angles and edges are smoothed out into curves.

Sometimes curves aren't everything... I want something sharp with edges. It's what adds artistic detail.

Oh well...

Here is another pic of the front, big change!

Isamu · 05-18-2011, 01:03 PM
