i have a hard time believing Toyota will use the 22 yr old N platform to build anything new. i think once production of the 3rd gen IS wraps up then all of their core models would have officially moved over to TNGA.
a new 86 could come sooner than later if Toyota just repurpose the Copen concept. imo with a new Celica coming a smaller and cheaper new 86 would make sense.
originally it was supposed to end on 10/25 but has been extended by 5 months to 3/26. some have speculated that Toyota had requested this as a stop measure until the rumored A100 is ready. :popcorn:
i posted this in the FTse thread but this is what @ichitaka05 shared on the 86 forum
