Ok let the hating begin...
J/k it looks sick however... just my observation, and in no way do I mean to sound like its a bad thing.
It looks like a 350z, a G35, a lexus 430 sc, and a celica all got together had a huge orgy, and this is its love child.
Anyway, car looks sick, but I hate the spoiler.

The only logical step I can see SoJ taking (as well as Toyota), is to take the 2.0L DI H4 that Toyota and Subaru have created, and possibly at some point offer a higher trim level of the FT-86 production car that runs a 2.0L turbo. Considering the two worked so long developing the DI system and heads for a 2.0L H4 motor, it only makes sense from a business standpoint (for both manufacturers) to then offer a higher end trim of the 'Yota coupe and possibly the rumored Subie coupe, that runs a next-generation 2.0L DI Turbo motor with STi 6spd.
All I know, is that if Toyota brings a 2.0L DI H4 turbocharged motor with a Subaru-sourced 6spd in their upcoming coupe, and Subaru either does not make a coupe or does not make one and release it here with the 2.0L turbo motor, I am switching sides. I for one am tired of only getting a 2.5L option.
You can put me down for one of the first off the line Toyota, or you Subaru, if either of you plan to bring us a 2.0L turbo coupe.**
**Disclaimer: opinions and comments posted here are conditional, on the explicit expectation that Toyota or Subaru manage to release a 2dr coupe, RWD or AWD, that actually weighs in with a curb weight which is not to exceed 2,800lb wet (full tank of fuel and all other necessary fluids). Thereby managing to not completely **** up the opportunity to release a milestone product for the future of well-balanced sub-$30k sport coupes.
