Subaru powered Toyota FT-86 Concept

NeoSHNIK · 04-03-2012, 01:40 PM

I keep seeing different numbers for the length of the car...
motortrend says the FR-S is 166.7 inches long (2013 Scion FR-S First Drive - Motor Trend)
Scion's official specs says its 166.9 inches (Scion FR-S | FR-S Features | Specifications | Scion.com)
Subaru-BRZ official spec states 166.7 in (2013 Subaru BRZ)
Finally the C&D says the BRZ is 166.9 inches long (2013 Subaru BRZ Sports Car First Drive – Review – Car and Driver)

Not sure who to believe, but its probably not 165.4...

I think you missed my point. The point is this: "this car is longer than 165.4 inches".

I disagree, although looks are subjective.

I'm pretty excited to see its numbers and maybe go test one when they come out.

Scion FR-S Preliminary Specifications | SCIONFIRST86.COM

LENGTH 166.7 in.

Zaggeron · 04-03-2012, 03:05 PM

I got the original figures from Edmunds. The Subaru site says 166.7 x 69.9 x 50.6. My original point still stands -- the picture made the car look big. It's actually quite compact.

not seeing much room for an aftermarket turbo

Just like all other performance cars, needs some sort of a wing, and it will be perfect. Can't wait to see a BRZ in blue in a showroom.
