Since debuting the voluptuous FT-1 sports-automobile idea at this year’s Detroit auto show, Toyota has fallen mum on the topic—that is, till the festivities at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance fired up. This week, Toyota is trotting out the FT-1 for the show attendees in Monterey but created a handful of crucial changes to the notion to greater suit its moneyed environs. Does this imply the FT-1 is now . . . the FT-2?
Okay, so it is nevertheless referred to as the FT-1, but Toyota has flipped the car’s colour script, switching it from a sporty red exterior with a black-leather interior to a softer and much more grand-touring-friendly graphite-more than-saddle ensemble. The splashes of rich brown leather throughout the interior are almost jarring, offered the otherwise cold, technical style they’ve been plugged into, but we feel it looks wonderful. The new graphite paint of the updated FT-1 shows off much more detail of car’s insanely intricate surfacing than did the original concept’s dark red hue, and it appears great. We’re nevertheless waiting for Toyota to elaborate on what may possibly energy a achievable production version of the FT-1, a car that is anticipated to share underpinnings with BMW were it to take place.
Alongside the new FT-1, so to speak, Toyota also debuted another, significantly less-true FT-1: The FT-1 Vision GT idea is a purely virtual automobile obtainable for download in the Gran Turismo video game. The wild digital FT-1 represents Toyota’s take on what the car may well appear like as a complete-blown race car, and it’s fairly an impressive factor. If your fantasies gravitate instead to far more streetable machines, worry not—the regular red and graphite FT-1s are also downloadable.
