2013 Toyota 86

[jipi]

I was told by my local Toyota dealer that i can now make reservation, car will arrive by january. I cant decide what color to get. I narrowed it down to 2 colors. White or red. What do you think looks better? Most of my cars are white. (Evo 7-sold, now ek9 type R). Im kinda liking the red. But not sure. How red is it? Saw it at the manila auto salon. But never seen one on the streets. Is it like ferrari red? Never had a red car before. Also, I really like the trd body kit. Is it 200k more that standard price? Whats included in the kit? Front chin, side skirts and rear skirts? Includes the wing? I just want the duckbill spoiler.

I have seen a Red 86 and I can say It is good pick. I saw one at Toyota`s storage house while it is not yet cleaned. At that time, it was full of dust, despite in that condition you will still appreciate it. All the colors of 86 are very nice except for the gray, which I find dull after sometime - just my honest opinion.

Regarding the TRD kit, If it is 210t, it is usually just front skirt - 41,800, ducktail - 31,200, side skirt - 47,900 and leather seats (not sure if this upholstery type or just a seat cover) - 89,100. For me it is obviously not worth it. you can have this accessories at around 70T (if the seats cover is the upholstery type, if is just seat cover then probably 25t). My advised is to just wait for them to have the base model be offered. Don`t give in to them that you need to buy this accessories just to have an 86. If no one will buy their forced accessorized 86 then eventually they will be forced to start selling based models only.

Yung Camaro SS gusto ko diyan.

Fully restored ba, sir? Pati yung Porsche?

Parehas tayo ng taste bro, tulo laway sa Camaro.

Hrtrob,

how red is it? Is it like ferrari red? Ive never seen one on the streets. Only at manila auto salon. My choices are only red or white. But since all of my cars are white, im thinking about red. But want to make sure that its like ferrari red which i really like. Thanks. Nice cars!!

Hmm... There are actually two popular Ferrari reds, Rosso Corsa (deeper red) and Rosso Scuderia (brighter, hint of orange under sunlight/halogen light). The red on the 86 looks closer to Rosso Corsa in my eyes.

Having owned a couple of bright red cars, I'd say be prepared to attract a lot of attention from onlookers, pedestrians and rice-rockets

I am not familiar how red is a ferrari red but the way I see it, It`s like a deeper cherry red type color... Red is also my first choice as well as satin pearl white (whichever comes first). I though blue was dull but when i saw it live its also got my attention. I`m also waiting for 86. Several agents from different branches have offered me 86 with TRD accessories ranging from 210T - 700t, I always tell them I am not interested on having their kits just inform me once a bare 86 is available.

hi, any owner experience on Drifting - care to share?

Guys curious lang ano Fc ng 86 and GC!

[niky]

GC, still similar to the old. Around 6 km/l in the city. Lower in traffic. Around 4 km/l.

Damn. Ganyan pala talaga kalakas sa gas yung V6.

Not bad. in my experience, less thirsty than an Explorer V6 in mixed traffic. Probably on par with some compact crossovers... Better if you get a manual. Hell, it's much better than an old Evo...

Open up the taps (pedal to the metal) and say sayonara to your gas, though.

[MrGunn]

V6 pa lang yan, imagine the V8 Ford Mustang, hahaha.

86 should probably have good FC, boxer 4 lang naman siya. RWD pa so not as heavy as the typical AWD Subaru

i have a friend with a v8 and was able to borrow it last weekend, to my surprise the FC is a bit better than my explorer.

saw 2 white pearl FT86 kanina sa toyota manila bay ready for delivery...+ 2 owner na...

GC, still similar to the old. Around 6 km/l in the city. Lower in traffic. Around 4 km/l.

What about the 2.0 variant? Were you able to get an approximate reading of the 86 vs the GC 2.0? Thanks.

Edit:
Just found the answers to my own question from this site (for T86 and BRZ): http://gt86.com.au/subaru-brz-scion-...r-on-epa-site/

According to the EPA, when the rear-wheel drive coupes’ 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine is matched to the standard 6-speed manual gearbox, they return 22mpg (10.68L/100km) city, 30mpg (7.83L/100km) highway and 25mpg (9.39L/100km) combined.

Those that opt for the 6-speed automatic transmission, will see slightly better numbers at 25mpg (9.39L/100km) in city driving, 34mpg on the highway and 28mpg (6.91L/100km) combined.

While for the GC 2.0, here's another reference: http://www.aboutautomobile.com/Fuel/...yundai/Genesis

It would be interesting to see what those nos. would be like in more severe PH traffic conditions.

I think Mikko David would know, he drove them back to back.

It's red like the Subaru lightning red for the Impreza/WRX STi


FC of the 86 so far (break in 500+ km)
city 12 l/100km
city/hw 10.3 l/100km
hw 8 l/100km

Just read this, " the 86 is right up there with the greats. The suspension is perfect. Bar none, it's the best this side of a true exotic sports car" by Botchi Santos.
