Finally the Toyota 86 is here!

[aza013]

You will be looking at around 3 years befor STI and TRD will have any thing out in Australia .
I was down talking to Toyota and subaru on Sunday.
Toyota have a back log for 18 months and Subaru could have a car ready for me in 11 - 12 months

I'm still thinking about it as with all what I want on it the price is $42000 drive away.

could buy a lot for 42K...

100% agree, that is one thing that is going round in my head and the 1 year for it to be delivered .

Or I put 42K into the fto .

[Astron_Boy]

Put it this way.

In 1995 the Mercedes I bought was worth $75,000.
When I bought it. it was less than the last 4 digits of the price tag.

It's not the same I realise, different cars, etc.
But fact is, you're going to spend 42K on something worth a shadow of that in time to come when you sell...

Your FTO would give the 86 a run for its own money...

You know what the first thing I thought after reading this thread.

"Hmmm, wonder what side the exhaust pipe comes through on those."

There might be a new source of MR2 style mufflers on the market for the Veilside rear bumper setup.

This was a test after they installed the following, everything else is stock

- Single Turbo Kit with Tial GT2871R Turbocharger
- Tial MVR 44mm Wastegate and Tial Blow Off Valve
- Injector Dynamics 850cc Fuel Injectors running E85
- Haltech Platinum Sport standalone engine management
- Haltech Wideband and Haltech Advanced Boost Control System

Saw a black 86 yesterday.

First one I've seen that wasn't in a dealership.

[SchumieFan]

Ive seen several,

TBH i think they are a bit soft... they had a real opportunity to build something spectacular and instead built something mainstream that blends in with all the other traffic... and the interior is just saddening! there is nothing new or quirky... it could just be any other toyota on the inside...

It was at a roundabout.

[ZFL45H1]

U did well then

[bass_twitch]

I've seen plenty around now,
Saw 2 on Saturday driving around Dural (their current target market! )
Still love them,
Just waiting patiently now for all the stars to line up (Read: prices to drop)

EDIT: Best thing about them is that they are fiancé approved!

Saw one yesterday on Newcastle foreshore had a haltec decal up the side of it not sure if was by haltec or not but looked sweet no photo though sorry
