| Toyota/Subaru FR sports car code-named 086A, will include direct injection
 Quote:
Over the past few months, rumors have circulated that the joint venture between Toyota and Subaru to develop an affordable, front-engine, rear-wheel-drive coupe has been delayed. ToMoCo president, Akio Toyoda, sought to address those concerns at last month's Tokyo Auto Salon, and according to Toyota's new overlord, development is still underway.
Toyoda told the assembled masses that the new FR sports car is an essential part of the automaker's "rejuvenation" efforts to bring younger people into the fold, and a large part of that is price. The coupe is still expected to cost around 2,000,000 yen (a little over $21,000 US) and is set to go on sale in 2012. According to Toyoda, the production postponement has nothing to do with the delay in construction of the Toyota/Subaru factory, where the two-door was due to be built next year. Instead, Toyoda claims that the hold up is due to the adaption of Toyota's new D-4S direct injection system for the flat-four engine. Currently, the FR sports car is codenamed "086A," and for those of you schooled in the world of Hachirokus, that spells good things to come.

Sorry, Toyota/Subaru. | Not true, it may look good, it may sound good, it may seem like its a decent car. But hey? who said they are just as reliable as jap cars? no one tested them, they just got released. who on earth know 5-10 years down the road some shit isnt gonna blow up or not
example samsung and LG have came a long way from crap to decent stuff out there now (i rocked many samsung items in my life ) but hell, if money wasnt a problem, who in their right mind wouldnt rock JDM brands (sony, panasonic, sharp etc )

the design of the car is decent, but if it really sells for 21 grand US, i think the streets will be flooded with these things
