Hachi Roku is BACK!

BUMP

Just came across some newer pictures. Don't know about you guys, but I'm happy to know that this idea still hasn't been put into the shredder =D






...That picture is one of the most epic pictures of all time. ^^^^^^


I'm still wondering what kind of changes will be made to the production version. Surely the interior won't be this bold, right?



...Am I the only one who noticed the "ABS" switch? HAHA! Next time they take this car for a test run... It better be sideways! At the EBISU!

I'm guessing that they are expecting the FT86 to become one of their 'legends' in the long run.

The interior isn't bad at all. If you're someone who likes stock cars.

But if this car were to join the D1 series, I feel that they'd have to remove the entire dashboard just to place straight-to-the-point gauges, steering wheel, etc.

But the overall design isn't bad at all.
=)

I like it......................would appreciate if it was a bit less curvy though.
Lets hope they have sensable prising in Dubai.

@Josh, I agree. The interior actually looks cool. But I think it'll always remain a concept (or for a while), such interiors don't usually reach the market. The Toyota IQ had a similiar one when it was in it's concept stages. They'll probably make it simpler and add Carbon fiber and graphite to it to give it a better look, just like under the gear knob.

And yeah... D1 people do that.. But then again, if you change the dash, you can't compete in the street legal class.


@Samaj, sensible pricing is something you should hope for AFTER they call it street legal. Most of the quick Japanese cars aren't street legal here.


Is it just me, or is the entire roof bit (pillars, roof, windows) cut and stuck from the GT-R? In the first picture it looks exactly like it! Or maybe it's just me being silly...

ps toyota is bringing cool back with that car! love the GTResque profile side windows!

Definate GTR styling! exactly what i said in my first post!

also got some rx8 styling.....will be interesting to see how much more refinement it will undergo before a production version is released

That's a 3D render. So the setting might have been inspired by the GT-R.

my car's interior already looks like that..

well, almost.

check this out!




I agree with Sam. I'd like it more if it had less curved lines..
But, welcome to the modern age..
