lexsum Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Could the new skyline prompt toyota to make new sports cars? more pics here: http://motorshow.cars.uk.msn.com/motorshow/Tokyo2007/photogallery.aspx?cp-documentid=5625991 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 It does look good doen't it. I still dont see Toyota doing much for a while though:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 The Toyota FT-HS will probably be out in 2009 in some form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJI Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I hate the look of that thing. Looks like a glorified 350Z with extra angles and big wheels. The front 'grill' looks crap and the headlights are those silly stretch up the bonnet type that don't suit performance cars. Not a fan at all.

hoff Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Got to like the rear though, surely. Still not as nice a supras but nice all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Could the new skyline prompt toyota to make new sports cars? Errr they are!? LF-A FT-HS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 But are they not out till 2009? Edit: I see your point though, they are making another sports car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snooze Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Is the GTR just a 2-seater now, then? Eurgh. If I want an impractical, fun car, I'll buy a Caterham, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexsum Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 Errr they are!? LF-A FT-HS yip - we'll see if these concepts make it - my money is on not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 yip - we'll see if these concepts make it - my money is on not. The LF-A has been lapping the 'Ring for months...it exists. The FT-HS is not so certain. but I'd be amazed in the current climate if it doesn't spawn something. Toyota have invested so much in F1 that they have to have sporting vehicles to back it up.

colsoop Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 They will probably do what they did against nissans 300 zx by seeing what the new skyline can do then build something that is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4leks Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I'm not sure about the design but I still desperately want to try one! They have decleared that it is at least matching 997 Turbo's time on the Ring (maybe even quicker) and handles even better. 480 bhp @ 588 Nm torgue with 4wd and just £55k for brand new one in Japan, so should be around £30k in couple of years it is shame that it is gonna be much more expensive here (as usual) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefgroover Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Autocar says that Nissan claimed "two front seat passengers could converse crusing @ 188mph without raising their voice". Have Nissan learned to contol the tyre & wind noise in their vehicles at last? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
