Doesn't float my boat at all. Nowhere near 80s enough for my liking.

The Japanese brand is already on a mission to win back the hearts of keen drivers with its upcoming FT-86 coupe that could bring the Celica name back to Toyota showrooms.

My very first impression was that it looks remarkably like a Spyker.

Pop ups please.
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

What they said. There's not a single thing I like about that car. Especially the White interior "highlights" reminds me of people spraypainting their air vents and dash surround.

I'd probably pick the FT-86 II over that, but I still reckon it'd be a blast to drive.

With a designation like GRMN I can see it being nicknamed the Gremlin pretty quickly :P
