Damn, the Toyota looks amazing! First new car in over a decade that I've been excited about and would consider owning.

I'm glad toyota wants to play again. Just a few months ago all this sport car talk was dying.

Subie is still green, although its not happy about how it fits into the corporate image, from what I've read.
And is it going to be AWD like all other Subbies in the US?

Still no news of a turbo.
Even if it didn't come with turbo from factory I'm sure TRD will have a blower for it.

From what I've seen not sure if this car will happen here but if it does I think we can count on 4WD

Dunno about that. The FT-86 is something which everyone wished the Genesis coupe would be -- a small nimble handling sports car. Genesis coupe failed to deliver on this point IMO. Great power but way too big and heavy.

What drift car do you know of thats awd? The Toyota version will be RWD not AWD, and I doubt the Subaru version, if they made one would be AWD either.

I wonder if U.S. lawyers will have something to say about the "best drifting car" advertising.
