Toyota FT-1 Concept Grays Out Pebble Beach Concept Lawn
Toyota is dropping a not-so-subtle hint this week that its push for a new sports car as a spiritual successor to the Supra are alive and well.
In an unusual move, the company built a second copy of its FT-1 concept car, this time dressed in gray pain rather than the red it had during the surprise debut last January in Detroit. This time, the interior is revised with more premium-looking materials better suited to the environment and on-lookers at Pebble Beach.
But aside from that, news about the car is sparse at best. Official details about the powertrain and pricing are still unavailable although Toyota is expected to price the production car somewhere around $60,000 when it arrives.
