You say that, but GM still hasn't gotten on board with it. Hell, they still keep the key and fob separate. And all this even though the SUVs have smart key. Really baffling that you can't get a Sierra Denali with smart key, or AC vents for the rear seats.

Yeah, I knew the Vettes have them, wasn't sure what else through.

The 86 is just a rebadged Scion Frs. It's nowhere near a supra level type car.

My 2015.5 Yukon has a fob only (key inside) with push button start and buttons on the doors to lock and unlock. Never take the key out of my pocket.

Speaking of cars, what happened to Vette Guy who used to post here? Haven't seen him in a long time.

Seems odd, all of those smooth lines on the jets yet a ton of sharp corners on the car.

What took designers so long? Or was it affordable manufacturing holding design back?

Please be adding a smart key.


One of the reasons I selected the trim package with my truck is because it didn't have a smart key. I can't stand them.

Keyless entry with push button start. Never have to take your fob out of the pocket to get in and drive the car.


I have a 2011 Infiniti M37 and it's got it. Shouldn't all new cars have that by now?

I love it btw. Put my key in my pocket. As I walk up the door handles light up, push the button on the handle and doors unlock, push the button and it starts. Same with the trunk, walk up, push button on trunk, opens. Very convenient, and impossible to lock your key in the car.

Are the engines going to be massively overbuilt, torsionally balanced and crank the boost up to the sky ready like the old Supras?

Probably not, I think it will be derived from the V6 TT Lexus is introducing this year in the sedans.

I have a want to own one still.. Trying to find one unmolested is the problem.


Which is why you should just give up the dream- unmolested examples are so rare and don't think the owners aren't aware of that fact and want ridiculous premiums..

I'd say it's the other way around, the FRS was just a re-badged Toyota 86.

Also, no one has posted spy shots yet?
