Toyota has recently announced its G Sports conversion car series that will be sold through Toyota-brand dealers in Japan throughout 2010. These G’s series vehicles are designed for owners interested in having a unique vehicle and several of them took center stage at Toyota’s booth at the 2010 Tokyo Auto Salon. We have heard plenty about Toyota’s FT-86 and the company’s G’s version stole the show. Dozens gathered around the car during exclusive media hours in order to see it up close and personal. Plenty of carbon fiber accents can be seen on this extremely stylish and polished design, making this FT-86 Concept even more impressive than the original.

Along with the standard carbon fiber goodies, there’s a vented carbon fiber hood and a massive rear spoiler. We also noticed an aggressive new exhaust setup.

With this concept Toyota continues to build interest in the FT-86, which is believed will head to production shortly. The car is rumored to be powered by a 2.0-liter Subaru boxer engine with Toyota heads, delivering around 200-hp. Toyota is hoping this model will be a hit with enthusiasts, tuners and help get a younger demographic into its showrooms.

i'm so buying one when it gets here

looks very diff from the other renderings.

looks more like a 350/370z

looks good... what is the CDN price estimate?

not bad, does look like GT RAWRR's little brother

Could use more power thats for sure

i really hope this thing comes to canada

its time for a change toyota.. a CHANGEEEEE

looks like the NSX that was suppose to go into production.

- same body shape
- same headlights
- same tail lights that go across the rear end

mmm that looks nice... but quite similar to other cars out there oO

id really like to see a new Celica that looks similar to the last gen

I wouldn't mind owning one.

25k usd = 40k cdn

well ppl bought s2k for $50k cdn. I don't think it's fair to judge this car without a testdrive. It seems pretty promising to me. I guess this track oriented car is more about the driving experience, just like the s2k.

trading in my s2k for this one

40k cad was also what people paid for the celica gt-s back then, so it's a fair price imo.

I'll take one in a Subaru version please :)

i thought the RSX-S/Celica GT-S was both priced around 32-33k...even after taxes and fees it shouldn't be more than 37-38k?

40k well its worth it too the people who can afford must be a good driving experience

theres a AE86 in the back! Wonder if its the same one used for Initial D the movie with EDISON CHEN!

pretty excited to see this car go into production soon.. hopefully we'll see them at the end of next year.

I wonder how well the perform against Gen coupes...even though I'm sure it won't even fall in the same price category.

hmm? was it? I thought gts was closer to 36 pre-tax, but regardless I think the price is fair for the ft86
