3 years before release?
That's pretty hard for me to believe. I'm sure they may have a very general design vision drafted or even clayed out by then, but no way the nitty gritty details are ironed out that early.
Yes I know the 5th gen was released as a concept in 2006...3 years before release, but that's just it. it was a concept car, and everyone screamed BUILD IT AS IT IS! I find this to be a bit different.
