all we can do is speculate until we see an actual clear un-masked version.. however, I am losing faith...

Also this could be the Subaru version.

I love the overall shape of the car. I think the production version is gonna turn out to look good. I'm more worried about the specs and price of this car not turning out to my liking.

Lets go Toyota group!

2012 Toyota FT-86 - Top Speed

Ok so i haven't read through this entire thread, but i just saw that this car is going to be powered by a 2.0 NA I4...

so much for it being fast..

. maybe faster than a civic.

Depends on if you are one of those that are still unrealistically thinking it will weigh under 2500lbs. If it's 2200 lbs with 200hp, it would be pretty damn quick. I'd love to be proved wrong, but I'm thinking it will be closer to 3000 lbs.

yea seriously... look at an S2000 or a Miata or a lotus, thats what a LIGHT car looks like. this thing is going to weigh closer to 3000lbs. lets face it. with all this eco and mpg rave, 'fast' is now 200hp, and with all the safety regulations, 3200lbs is now 'very light'

... not a good combination if you want a fast car.

If i can go out and buy a genesis with a 2.0T or this slow **** with a 2.0 NA, its not even much of a decision. wtf man. 2.0 NA :gtfo: i thought they were actually going to build a fast car.

Looks like my Z will remain in her stable. That mule isn't going to replace her.

yea this would be cool to replace an altima coupe.... not a Z. honestly the only Z i wouldn't rather have than this car is an 80's 300zx 2+2

flashburn · 05-18-2011, 05:47 PM

I still wouldn't mind getting it if its no more than 3000lbs, gets 35+ mpg highway, and is no more than $22k. I'd use it as a daily driver, and get something better as a more track dedicated car.

I just want a turbo.

One reason why I'm still thinking about a Juke. Lowered on some 18 or 19's, and some extra HP, sounds pretty nice too me. Unfortunately the fuel efficiency isn't really what it should be.

I think it should be possible to get close to around 220-230whp on the Juke after some breather's and a tune. Uprev is working on tuning software for it now.
