They had to have put on that wing because all previous models only ran off golf cart parts. Mule car requires a proper engine (which they have announced) and along and behold it is not a surprise that their back end is sliding all over the place so they had to equip it with a wing. Any wing.

Moto's posts are extremely infectious; his passion and enthusiasm make me want to believe this car will be the best thing since the GT-R's rebirth.

I'm in for one. wink.gif

They don't put interiors in concept cars for shows. I am excited about this after reading the club4ag thread. I'm still buying one.

I was reading a Road & Track issue where they talked about that same model FR-S. If it really will look like that, I'm abandoning my previous NISMO 370Z plans.

but at the same time its a 2.0 liter boxer engine which is something that subaru has never come out with. I know that boxer engine come with a pretty good amount of torque. Now if toyota was involved in making the head or block of the engine like yamaha has done for toyota for so many years. Then maybe I'll give it some consideration and more liking.

hopefully it revs up to 7,500 rpm.

Am I reading you correctly in your statement that Subaru has never released a 2.0 boxer? Because if so then I'm sure the Subaru EJ20 and FB20 engines would like to have a discussion with you about how they're 2.0L N/A engines that have powered numerous cars.

Based on the information floating abound Club 4AG this particular 2.0 boxer has been reworked by both Toyota and Yamaha so I'd expect it to be putting out a little more power than a 3SGE Redtop in a car a bit smaller and weighing the same if not a little more than the 7th Gen Celica did with power to the rear wheels and LSD stock.

I don't know about you guys but a light, RWD, 2 + 2 is a very exciting thought...especially one coming from Toyota.

ya I wasn't to sure about the whole subaru 2 liter engine thing. Well if anything it sure as hell better have equal or more power than a stock AP2 S2000 and sure as hell more power than a Altezza beams blacktop

Seriously? GTFO. Your comments like this have gotten old and repetitive.


I think the 2.0 boxer is one of Subaru's most common motors. It will be nice to see Toyota get their hands on the engine and rework a few things to improve upon a great motor... I just hope there is space to get to the spark plugs between the frame rails... kindasad.gif

And it might make less power than a S2K, but it will have something the S2K knows nothing about.... torque. The F20C is a great motor to make noise and not get anywhere fast.
