Toyota/Scion coupe specs reach the Internet
Mon, 31 Oct 2011
Specifications for the Toyota FT-86 and Scion FR-S coupes have leaked on the Internet via scanned images of the training manual, posted at www.ft86club.com.
If the site's translations are correct, the 2,667-pound coupe will use a 2.0-liter flat-four engine that makes 197 hp at 7,000 rpm and 150 lb-ft of torque at 6,600 rpm.
It looks as if the FR-S will come in two trim levels: a higher-spec variant that features a limited-slip rear differential in both manual and automatic versions of the car and a lower-spec model that has only the limited-slip diff with the manual transmission.
High-spec models will also have a leather-wrapped steering wheel, LED accent lighting, a six-speaker audio system, sport pedals, white-faced gauges and bigger wheels.
