That's a shame as its a great concept, just poorly executed by the sounds of it.

Wonder if Subaru will do a hotter STi variant with a turbo to spice it up, pic....

With all this BMW love around, I wonder if the mods would consider a BMW sub-section.

I wouldn't be a mod for long lol..... (title  :wink:)

What are people's thoughts on the new Toyota GT86, suspecting not a huge interest but I quite like the look of it and what it's about?

The reviews have been very poor and not about the lack of power that most would expect, more on the lack of feel and it's not the drivers car it was said to be.

Really, what reviews have you been reading :huh:

http://www.evo.co.uk/carreviews/evocarreviews/276016/toyota_gt_86_review.html

Glowing review from what I can gather.

Guessing there are more badge enthusiasts on this site than general car enthusiasts.

I've seen 3 reviews on YouTube and none of them like it.

i was really hoping it would be a good car but it seems once the hype has died down its bait of a dud.

sit are bringing out a hot one but they're struggling for room for forced induction apparently!

toyota are also bringing out hop up kits from the dealer such as body kits, suspension and exhausts etc so you can tart it up from the dealers

Interesting stuff, knew the car is aimed at the 'modding' scene so all makes sense.

I have traded in the GTI as part of the deal. However, I will also advertise it on here, Pistonheads and Autotrader. To make the car more attractive I will be selling including the Smoked R Rear LED's ( unless BMW take the car in which case I will sell separately with Raffe for first refusal ).
