Farkas Posted April 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 I'm excited the Subaru revision of this car will be turbo. This is good for the Toyota enthusiasts like me who feel the 2.0 N/A model will probably need a little help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farkas Posted April 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Any ballpark on price announced? They're trying to keep it between 14-18k but it wont be AWD. Good! :thumbup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littleguy Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Hmm... I'm liking the idea of a Yamaha head design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc1647545523 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 They're trying to keep it between 14-18k Where are those numbers coming from? Projected base price between 20-25k in most articles I've read. Unless they left room for a LS7 swap, nothing to get too excited about.

Unless they left room for a LS7 swap, nothing to get too excited about. 20-25k is what I'm expecting myself, but from past articles they've been aiming for prices south of 20k.

10phone2 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 I'm excited about the cars engine potential. It just depends on how strong the block will be. The Yamaha head design is a major plus and I am sure the car will kill s2000's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 I see Genesis Coupe. I wonder if Farkas' toyo love will be able to see it too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco-REX Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 I was very interested in the FT-86 until I heard about FFR's Project 818. But the FT still interests me some. If it has a Subaru block, I'm sure pretty much any subaru engine will bolt right in. And with all the room ahead of the engine, I don't think it'd be too difficult to shoehorn Subaru's new front mount turbo in there either. The FT should have a lot of modding potential. As for a LS under the hood, I don't see why not. Those things get shoved into everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrxRcr Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 I got a survey from subaru a few months back basically asking if i would buy a rwd subaru, needless to say i said yes, I even wrote hell next to the yes box. I doubt anybody will ever see my comment but it was worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farkas Posted April 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 I'm surprised by the positive feedback I'm seeing about this car, despite it being a Toyota and all. Aaron, I see the resemblance, but this looks better than the Genesis, IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmonda Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Is it me or does that look like a 911 with a bad ricer body kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Das Borgen Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Pennske making shocks for it? I'd love to see this car join the party in Grand-Am and/or World Challenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
