http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2011/10/ft86specs-628.jpg (http://www.autoblog.com/photos/toyota-ft-86-specs/)We may have a clearer picture of what the Toyota FT-86 (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/toyota ft-86) / Scion FR-S (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/scion fr-s) will bring to the table when the production version finally arrives. A few scans of a purported Toyota (http://www.autoblog.com/toyota/) training manual on the vehicle have made their way into the hands of the internet via the FT86Club.com forum.
If the site's translations are accurate, the vehicle will boast a 2.0-liter flat-four producing 197 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 150 pound-feet of torque at 6,600 rpm. While not overwhelming numbers, if the handling is as good as we've been hearing, the powertrain should be enough to hustle the 2,667-pound coupe around your favorite twisty road at a respectable pace.
The sheet also reveals that the FR-S will come in two trims, at least in Japan. A higher-spec variant will come with a limited-slip rear differential in both manual and automatic-equipped vehicles, while the lower-spec model will only have the LSD when equipped with a third pedal (which is just fine by us).
Topped-out JDM versions will also have a leather-wrapped steering wheel, LED accent lighting, a six-speaker audio system, sport pedals and white-faced gauges. Models will also be differentiated by wheel size, with higher-trims wearing modest 17-inch rollers and lower models rolling on 16-inch stock.Toyota FT-86 / Scion FR-S specs leaked via training manual (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/10/31/toyota-ft-86-scion-fr-s-specs-leaked-via-training-manual/) originally appeared on Autoblog (http://www.autoblog.com) on Mon, 31 Oct 2011 11:30:00 EST.
