    Who gives two shits what it looks like, New RWD toyota sports car whoo!!! I'll buy one for sure. But I doubt it will go into production with the boxer engine cos Subaru is also releasing a RWD boxer car based on the work they put into the FT. Subaru said they wanted it to be the only RWD boxer car on the market so I think Yota and Subie will go their seperate ways. Besides VVTi is toyotas little secret and they didn't want Subaru to bite it i guess. Toyota said they will be selling it for only 32k in Australia Max so they can appeal to a younger market therefore spawning an intrest with a new generation of sports car enthusists. It will be the cheapest thoroughbred sports RWD on the Australian market.

    The 4AGE made the AE86 Famous? Don't think so...

    It got cult status because it is a cool looking RWD car that handled well... The fact that it had a 4AGE might have been a contributor to its status, but the 4AGE just completed the "package".

    Plenty of Toyotas got twincam engines and were never famous.

    I reckon as long as this thing handles well, the haters will go on hating, and the people who want a decent new car will buy one
