Why the heck wouldn't you put your rotors there?

Less torsional load, lighter weight, probably quicker turning.....

Gosh what a great idea that they came up with!

Maybe they could adapt it to a motorcycle?

These show up on concept vehicles just about every other year. The biggest problem with the car adaptation is removing the wheel/rotor combo. Hopefully someone figures it out and puts it in to production.

Was thinking that it looks like an angry Genesis.

ah the much hyped Toyobaru. Don't expect to see those brakes on the production version.

Hmmm...I guess I should pay a little attention to foreign products...

I walked right past the Scion booth - and that car - at the SEMA show in Las Vegas on Friday.

If only I would've taken a second to check it out...

Who was it who said 'Take the blinders off!'?

They even have the matching caliper.
