what do you think? the front looks a little bit too late model celica-ish for me.

Looks very good on the side. I'm so-so on the direct front view. Also, is this thing really coming before I die lol? It's like they've been talking about it for years. But whatever, maybe sticky accelerators would be a good thing on this.

from what i've read it's slotted to be produced in spring 2012

I don't see much of a difference between this version and the early version. Maybe if they displayed it in a lighter color. I was hoping for something cheaper then the 370z, more along the lines of WRX, MS3, GTI, or Si.

Finally, finally they are making an rwd turbo 4 from Japan and its affordable to boot. Hopefully this starts a rwd 4 cylinder boom and Honda will bring something new to the table and maybe with something more then 197hp.

So this along with the Subaru variant and the Genissis Coupe make 3 rwd turbo coupe's on the market. Too bad GM doesn't step up and re badge the Solstice or give it an update and sell it since the 265hp turbo charged DI rwd Solstice coupe was a fun little car.

I like it...

HxCGuitars · 03-06-2011, 02:47 AM

I have to say, I do like it. Not as much as a Camaro, but hey

Plus, if it's got a subie boxer engine in it, that'll sound pretty dang good! Is it coming to the US? It'd be cool to see those on the streets.

weenie25banini · 03-06-2011, 03:04 AM

I like it!! Especially because it's a toyota lol I know i Know. I grew up in toyota with supra's and sedans and trucks so just knowing that they have a sport version coming is pretty sick lol. I still love my chevy though lol

Subaru also has a display at Geneva of their Ft-86 version but it's only showing the chasis, frame work and engine.

I believe the V6 Pony Cars would be more than enough to answer.

Toyotas are sooo boring, so its nice to see something sporty. But at a price cheaper than the 370Z, so that means it will be in the 20s, I just do not think it will be the performance car I was hoping for them to build. They need something that competes with the GTR. They should price this in the 60k range and give it 500 hp.

They just need to bring back the Supra!

Well if the 2.0L Subaru Boxer engine is as nice and well built as the STI's 2.5L or JDM 2.0L it should have no problem making 500hp on the stock engine. Larger turbo, IC, exhaust and injectors should get it there and even more with methanol injection all without cracking the valve covers. I cant wait until the tuners get their hands on them especially since the rev happy 2.0L is back.

Yeah, but I meant 500 hp from the factory. With it being in the 20k range, it will probably come with around 300 hp.

Supra!

TOMS1SS · 03-06-2011, 08:20 AM

Looks like every Suprapile's dream has come true. Too bad they couldn't do something a little bit more special with that engine to compete with the GT-R. Might make a decent 370Z competitor.
