Heaps of new pictures and videos have been released about the new Toyota GT 86; http://www.allcarwiki.com/wiki/Toyota_GT-86
It's shaping up to be an awesome car. What do you guys think? Personally, the car looks awesome, but frankly I'm a bit surprised at the low power output I was expecting the Subaru to have an official upper spec with about 200kw. But from what the insiders at Toyota have been saying the car is being designed to be modded. I guess they're setting up the basics and letting the individual owners determine what power the car should be putting out. Possibly be very good for V8 swaps as I have heard talk from the cheif engineer that they want to sell a completely stripped out version from the factory, no engine, no interior trim, no panels, it's your choice what you pay for, though I'm not sure if this is actually going ahead. |

They've built the car for the enthusiasts, the racers, the drifters etc. Its a homage to the AE86 Sprinter of the past - one of the most popular cult cars in the world. They're supplying the perfect canvas at a cheap price because they know that most people who want a car like this will be into modifying it
