It will depend on the weight of the car, plus there are always aftermarket parts that can raise your power and I doubt that this will be the only engine for this car.

actually, if they could pull off the supra's 276bhp twin turbo JZA8x 3L engine then im sure they'd sell alot more of this car then they would if its going to be released as the 160bhp scirocco knockoff.

If Toyota made that exactly like the artist's rendering it would be the best looking Toyota of all time...and Subaru as well for that matter

That target market change, it's only a marketing strategy aiming to those nostalgics who had an AE86 Corolla in the 80's and 90's.

That may be true but this 86 isn't the 4 seater liftback the original was. From the looks of the rendering i'd say this is more aimed at the 1 series crowd.

160bhp. If it is very light, then it would be an awesome modern day AE86!

first why boxer 4. second why 160HP. third this is most likely going weight more than MX5 and Genesis, so it has lost the competition already. plus i believe it will have that a Subaru AWD system which kills all the chances of over steering and power sliding. however it looks better than MX5 and genesis.

So the watering down begins. Don't expect it to look this good when it comes out. Sad, but most likely true.

Toyota (or Subaru for that matter, they have had some shockers over the years) can not make good looking cars...give me a Mazda MX-5 ANY-DAY, better looking, more classical, and a motoring ICON.
Imagine how HEAVY this thing will be if it is AWD.

Toyota's dependability and Subaru's expertise...sound's like my next car. Just have to decide whether to buy the Toyota version or the Subaru when they come out. Nice.

Super, a RWD coupe with a sweet sounding boxer engine. If it is light and have a proper mechanical (maybe Torsen) LSD, I am selling my MX5!
