Hey guys,

Had a rare opportunity to tour CALTY Design Studio. Here is a video they put together with the designer of the 2011 Scion tC, Bob Mochizuki

Will have a full article with photos of the Design Studio and behind the scence look of where Scion/Toyota/Lexus cars are designed soon!

did you see the ft86?

 

Honestly no we did not. I was hoping we would get a rare sneak peak and believe me I looked around for it.

But we will see the production version very soon so be a little more patient... ;)

 

Is that car a CALTY design? I know Japan has one right now because a few guys at work have seen it. From my understanding, it's impressive. My order will be in soon...

 

Thats me!

 

1stone do you mean the FT86 or tC? The 2011 Scion tC is from CALTY. The first FT-86 concept was from Toyota's ED2 design studio in France.

Now the FT-86 concept 2 I'm not sure and final production version I'm not sure which studio take credit for the design. We can only wait and see ;)

Ozzi looks like you had fun!

 

It was definitely the most fun I've had driving to and from Vegas. Taking Route 66 down was dope!
