Looks pretty dope. Rear wheel drive, 2.0L, 6-speed MT, Turbo.

Looks pretty good from this angle:





A modern version of the AE-86?

I don't think so. Follows different lines from the Genesis Coupe. IMO, looks more like a cross between the LF-A and the GTR.

Its either an MR2 or Celica RWD version replacement. Looks nice. It should make it to production unlike Chevy or Chrysler's concept cars that don't really make it close to productions.

I would much rather have the boxer sound. Though the evo motors make gobs of hp, you won't really need that much hp in the FT86 as I'm sure it'll be light and agile.
