The latest line on the Toyota FT-86 is that Toyota won't be healthy get this Subaru-based, rear-drive coupe to market at a utopian $20Ks price point. So today there's a report on the Web that Toyota is now working on a second rear-wheel-drive coupe — a smaller one that would slip in just under $20,000.

Details are few and so far not terribly enticing. It's said that the engine would be a version of Toyota's 1.5-liter inline four-cylinder making about 109 horsepower. That's a long way from the fun-to-drive threshold, even if the car ends up being a featherweight in the curb weight department.
