I think this cars got some potential but its gonna come down to price and weight (duh). If this thing is too heavy it'll bomb, no matter how cheap it is and if its price is too high, it'll bomb no matter how light it is

hmm, that's actually pretty cool. From some angles it actually reminds me of the R35 GTR

The steering wheel kinda reminds me of the Civic CVCC...

Keep in mind it's still in the concept phase. I'm sure they'll dumb down the production model. It's looking good though. Only thing I'm not liking so far is the rear hatch. The shape of the back makes me think it's a coupe to the Prius.

It looks good, lots of potential for a great car. We'll see what actually makes it to dealers.

Always the big unknown variable. Toyota's had a decent record lately of staying pretty close to their concepts though.

Wait, wut? It's my understanding that it's a joint project = Subaru chassis with Toyota tech bolted to it. I don't think they're going to be releasing a alternate version under the Subaru brand.

Some new interior pics posted at ft86club

Toyota paid some real nice attention to detail with this concept's interior. Even only half carries over into production I'd be real happy

Exterior doesn't look too bad but the interior is down right disgusting. No Thanks.
