Toyota FT-86 leaked

Brochure images reveal production-ready Toyota FT-86

Toyota FT-86

01st November 2011

Pictures of the production Toyota FT-86 have been leaked ahead of schedule.

The long-awaited rear-wheel-drive coupé isn’t supposed to break cover until next month’s Tokyo Motor Show, but these low-resolution images, scanned from an official brochure, reveal all.

They depict the finished car, but fitted with a styling package from Toyota’s own ‘Modellista’ parts department aimed at the Japanese market – the standard model will do without the bodykit and bigger wheels. Also leaked were shots of the interior, splashed with red accents in this Modellista version.

The rear bumper, tail-lights and headlamps have all been redesigned from the FT-86 II concept, seen at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year. 

When it goes on sale next year, the FT-86 will use a 2.0-litre four-cylinder boxer engine sending around 200bhp to the rear wheels.

I cannot wait for the official pics to come for this car. If Toyota calls this Celica, I'll be thrilled even more.

What will they actually ask for it?

The big question! I'm hoping that the cheap looking interior is going to mean a realistic asking price - but the rest of the car looks / sounds good.

I might actually get excited about getting my Toyota serviced in future - i.e. there will be a car in the showroom that I will actually be interested in sitting in for a change!

Yet another reworking

Yet again they tweak the exterior and yet again the reworked version is significantly inferior to its predecessor. At this rate the launch date is going to slip to 2013 and it'll end up looking like something styled by SsangYong .
I still want one, but less than I did a few months ago.

Concept II styling looked good

Why have they dramatically changed the lights and bumpers from the concept II styling, that looked mean and had presence. This is just a bit plain externally now. The subaru looks good through!!!

Superb

Great to see that the final production car is virtually identical to the concept. I find the above comment from 'mrrobinson89' a little baffling - I am not sure if he/she is looking at the same images as me above because the car I see above is anything but plain - it looks fantastic!

What do we think?

Okay I guess. I'm not 'blown' away by the design. But it should do well.
