It looks great from the front, and suffers from the same rear roofline problem as the panamera. ![http://www.carthrottle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/gt86-sportbrake-rear.jpg](http://www.carthrottle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/gt86-sportbrake-rear.jpg) And anyone who says a Toyota looks like an Aston clearly has no clue what they are talking about. ---

One of the car mags (R&T or MT not sure) this month had an article in it about this the BRZ/FRS and how this platform would be most designers dream to be able to sketch (rwd, front engine, fun little sports car etc…) and they pointed out with all those things in mind how did the car end up looking like it does. I thought that was an interesting point, I personally don’t think the car is hideous, but I don’t think its a home run either thinking more about what the article was pointing out. ---
