so, the facelift we all been waiting for? /s

fresh off the concept car Toyota showed in !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , this slight nip/tuck is aimed to appeal for the fairer of the sex, with tasteful (their words not mine) wood sprinkled in the interior and apparently classic white gauge, which i must say, looks good..

also, in red, the car looks mature, pity they dont facelift the rear too!

under the hood, the FA20 returns... sadly without any forced induction.. but hey, at least now it comes in two tones?

Who rang for CB?

Also, nice 928.

I like what they did, but the back doesn't match it anymore.

It reminds me a lot of the Z8 and E-Type Jags.

I have a feeling it's going to be one of those cars that looks a lot better in person.

it reminds me of Zagato or Alfa, though the red one gives me some Porsche vibe too..

The front end looks fine on it's own, but the smooth organic shape doesn't match anything behind the front wheels that has sharp character lines.

the time and money would have been better spent making the car more compelling, with, say, MORE POWER.

FA20DIT is a no brainer, c'mon! Even an EZ30 or EZ36 would be better, and I have previously suggested a de-stroked (86mm stroke like FA20, 92mm bore retained on EZ36 block) would make for a nicely over-square, revvy 3.4 liter H6.

I like it. The grill looks somewhat Jaquar-esque.
