anyone else see the similar body styling in the new toyota FT86 coming out in Nov?

 

At least we don't have to worry about those pesky throttle problems!!!

The Crossfire's style flows gracefully, that toyota looks like an airbrused brick...i'm just saying!!

 

no, I don't really see it

 

the bonnet is a copy!

 

It's similar, like crossing a cross with a Mazda 3 or maybe 6 front. Look at the side lines though, there is that cross from the front fender, and rear over the midpoint of the door. It's there, but as someone pointed out you can just do so much with the design of a car and they all tend to look the same. Long nose, short deck, smiley face with mean eyes.

 

I don't see it....

 

Imo I think they were going for the 370z look more than a crossfire.

 

Ditto......

 

Exactly... look at the back half... now google a Nismo 370.

 

One more for don't see it .
As well I agree that it is one more that looks the same as so many others from Toyota and Honda

 

Being a "Honda Guy" I was sort of waiting for Hondas CR-Z concept car to come out, but from the photos I've seen of it, I'm not completely convinced I'd want one.
After reading about this Toyota/Subaru colaboration, and I have to admit, I like it's design better than the Honda, I'm just not crazy about the Sabaru drivetrain.
I sure hope it makes it over here. I wouldn't mind seeing them on the highway, and maybe one could eventually wind up in my garage.
I ordered a 1987 Supra, and was pleased with it, so maybe it's time to try another Toyota.

Toyota FT-86 Concept - Toyota's rear-wheel-drive sports coupe for the 2009 Tokyo Show - Motor Trend

 

That car is a direct offspring of an accord coupe and a 1 series Bimmer. Almost scary.

IMO

 

Actually, I can CLEARLY see that. Good eye.

 

I can't see it at all...

 

I have to agree it does have many things in common, four wheels, headlights, glass, doors etc.
Its like my 300 as well come to think of it.

 

I think Toyota needs Mr. Stoddard.

 

Wow !!!
That car has 4 rubber tires, and...
The Crossfire has 4 rubber tires!

The similarities are asounding, what?, your kidding me, it has windshield wipers too????
When will these hounding simularities end?

Thats all I can see right now. I will keep on top of it though

 

Sorry, minis but I don't see it either. But I DO agree with Boiler's analysis.

I was gonnna buy one of these older Roadsters and use it as an "Around town beater".
I think of it as the Crossfire's little brother - just cause it's a smaller Roadster - not that it looks like one, tho.

 

VERY ASOUNDING LOL
