Toyota FT-86 G Sports concept
debuts in Japan
by Mashfique Hussain Chowdhury
A new version of the Toyota FT-86 concept has been revealed
at the Tokyo Auto Salon, a motor show of sorts. Dubbed the
FT-86 G Sports Concept, it is also featured in the new trailer
for the upcoming PS3 video game Gran Turismo 5.
As the small rear-wheel-drive coupe inches towards production,
the new concept debut also introduces the “G Sports” badge.
Toyota says they plan to use the badge in a series of cars
modified by motorsports tuners Gazoo Racing, to be released
only in Japan.
One available upgrade will be the addition of a turbocharger
to the Subaru 2.0-litre 4-cylinder boxer engine that sits in
the concepts so far.
Exterior modifications include a unique front bumper,
wider wheel arches, front lip spoiler, rear spoiler, unique
rear bumper with diffuser and central exhaust tips, new
rear lights, 19-inch wheels, and a carbon-fibre bonnet
with air vents.
No specs were revealed for the Toyota FT-86, but the car is confirmed
for production, and will should debut as a 2012 model. Being
designed as a drift machine from the start, it should obliterate
wannabe sports cars such as the decent Honda Civic Type-R
and the overrated VW Scirocco.

So, what do u guys think of this?
I think the FT-86 design with this new sports concept looks
much much better than the original look of the FT-86 previously.
I personally thinks that the design is fabulous...the aggressiveness is there.
Something close to the latest Nissan Skyline GTR35. :top:
A real stylish look car...that look fast too
Well, just something I found on the net, so thought of sharing with you
guys here. Hope you enjoyed it.
