These blow away the few press pics Toyota released earlier this week. Check out all the interior CF touches

I can't believe we have to wait until 2011 for this car to come out, it looks ready NOW (except for interior)!

*sorry, posted in wrong forum before*

Looking really nice! Thanks for sharing!

This car is just too beautiful...

These are better pictures, it looks really good on those angle shots. I do hope very little of this concept gets watered down when it goes into production since this is such a stark difference to the rest of Toyota's lineup exterior-wise and definitely interior-wise. To think I wasn't too supportive of the idea at the beginning...I'm so glad to be wrong on this one.

Nah, they decided instead to leak it with a quick shot in the GT5 preview video : http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11

I believe the Lexus SC430, the one now long in the tooth, was designed at their ED2 studio.

7500 rpm redline is good for starters and sounds promising from an engine stand point. I hope the production is pushing an 8000 rpm redline atleast.

That car looks wayyyyy too amazing to reach production in that form. In that form, with that interior and all of the carbon fiber, the car would retail for $30-35 grand for the base model. So expect the final product to have no carbon fiber, completely different interior, and slighty different exterior lines.

Looks amazing for now atleast!

As some other site suggested... this should be called: "Toyota Levin".

I like that... no tC replacement, no Corolla GTS model, just call it "Levin". Appeals to the ol' skool folks.

I like the ABS and TRC buttons to turn them OFF!

that's why its a "concept". I think the one they are showing is a lot more than $35K. the interior looks like a fighter jet's cockpit

I'm going to guess the see thru a-pillar isin't going to make it to final production... but man.. that would be cool... I find myself staring at my A pillar ALOT on curvy roads. That would be awesome... but yeah doubt it would make it to production.
