I feel like so many of the design elements of the FT1 have translated onto the production Supra, but there were a couple that just worked better on the concept. Namely the front bumper and the side/door vent. I don't mind either on the Supra, but the FT1 had presence man.

I agree about the door vents, but I actually like the front bump/nose on the GR Supra concept better.

Dam the FT-1 is a SEXY car, love it in grey way more then red... I'd agree on the door vents/intakes and I think the pre-production MKV bumper is very well done overall.

I wonder if 5Axis/Calty or some other Toyota-subsidiary design house will end up making the concept wheels for the production car, like how 5AD made the Scion FRS Concept wheels. Granted, nobody ended up buying the 5AD wheels, so maybe not.

5AD wheels look nice

True. Maybe someone will work on an FT-1 inspired aero kit for the A90..widebody, F1 nose etc.

I ordered a few sets when they came out. Liked them quite a bit. They're not pushing much consumer product these days though.
