    Default FT-86 IN THE FLESH at the local dealer

    Hey Guys,

    Last week I got to see at the local dealership the FT-86 in the flesh so to speak and OMG I'm sold. I want one now.

    As proof here are the pics I took. The staff were very unhelpful as they didn't even have a brochure on it. I ended up going back a 2nd time to see if I could get them to pop the bonnet and again no real help with the car in getting it opened or the bonnet popped however the security guy was a champ and let me inside the security barrier to get a close-up shot of the interior.

    P.s. I should mention at this point that I'm in France so the local dealership for me now is in Paris lol enjoy the pics.

    Cheers Bill





    Good for 248KW @ the wheels. Hurled across the 1/4 in 12.63 sec @ 116MPH .... Not bad for a Corolla Sportivo

    I am not normally a fan of 'modern' styling (> 80's) but, I would own one of these in a flash if I was able to afford one! Body lines just flow really nicely, and I like the simple-ness of the interior. Gotta say that with a nice set of wheels and a small ride height reduction, would look sexy!

    i would be VERY suprised if ANY car was ever produced again with popup lights now thanks to design rules... sad but true.

    btw, last car to feature popup lights was the lotus esprit v8.
