With Toyota's look into a cheap RWD compact, maybe this market is heating up again. Finally! But a turbo-charged two liter pumping out 247hp? Nice indeed, but there has been such a big push away from turbos. I guess we'll find out come 2010.

Future Silvia?

This time coming from the Japanese magazine, Best Car. The "AE86" is slated for a Winter 2008 debut. Boasting a 120hp engine and under 2200lb weight, this car is set to be an affordable lightweight compact RWD car - the likes of what we haven't seen since the Miata debuted. Interesting note from the article is that the car would sport a RWD system from Heavy Fuji Industries a.k.a. Subaru. Anyone else see the Scion Fuse in the sketch? Hmmmm, I think I'll believe this when I see the car in showrooms. It's only a year away...

AE-86 Return?
