One engine, turbo 4.
Only other option that is still rumor is some sort of hybrid style like the CR-Z to complement the turbo 4.

This would be a mistake even if it weren't a rumor. The CR-Z would be selling like crazy if it had a 160-200 hp all gas engine in it. Instead, its barely creeping along. If I could order it from the factory with an empty engine bay and sans batteries I would. :)

Besides, any car that cuts its A/C off at traffic lights in a 100 degree weather just to "save gas" is full of fail.

Turbo 4 isn't bad. Tis a shame it doesn't come with a v6 but you can do a lot with a factory turbo engine.

Just give Honda a little time, they are working on a non-sh*t CR-Z. :D
On the V6 side, I think if the stars align and the FT-86 does well and they can bring some LFA tech into the lower price we might see a RWD V6 from Toyota.

It has been a while since this thread has discussed the FT-86, but much has been learned in the past two months! First off, Scion will be revealing the "FT-S" at the NYAS April 20th, which will likely be Toyota's variant of the FT-86 in North America. Though a second concept was shown in March at the Geneva Auto Show, it will probably not make it to NA (or at least as a Toyota). However, I'm wondering if any Z owners are considering the FT-S as a next car, because it may be a Z competitor if made right. Just my 2 cents, cheers!

not me. scion is like nowhere in my radar as next hobby car. lol

heck, if im buying a scion, i'd get the xB as a beater :tup:

2 quarters through the 2011 Fiscal Year and no FT-86. Hell Toyota is showing a new concept. You guys still thinking 2011?

I'm hoping it stays true to the original concept as a light 200hp RWD sport coupe. If so, it will be my new daily driver, not a replacement for my Z.

Im on their forums and people are really REALLY dissapointed with the choice to launch it as a Scion. They already had the TC, so why did they need a second car. Ppl were like umm were gonna go buy the subaru version instead. Scion is just known for being cheap and putting the cheapest stuff in their cars. Everyone wanted it as a Toyota by far. I would much rather buy a 370z vs a FT, but I did have high hopes for the car which made me follow it closely!

Scion = fail. In every way.

Toyota doesnt want to ruin their rep with the elderly, by making a sports car.

I'd probably get the Subaru version anyways, but it would have been nice as a yota.

is this even gonna happen thanks to japans problems?

Yeap, they have left the Sport Car to the Lexus brand. :shakes head:

it looks a lot like a celica in those pictures...

I think the styling aspects that will carry over to the production car will make it look sick.
