GR86 Ordering

The Bright/Neptune Blue and Ignition/ Track bRed are both listed as metallic , I thought these were solid colours 🤔
Ja, they are but, I'm guessing its just the translator or wording used on the configurator, none of them are really pearl either.

I'm really pleased to see the spoiler and body kit as dealer options. Fingers crossed we get the same.

Interesting that in Europe the colours appear to have the same names as those used by Subaru for the BRZ 🤔
 
Looks promising! I had a quick configure but I see no mention of blind spot monitoring on the high spec cars? I'm not too fussed if its not there since visibility in the GT86 is pretty good, but would be a nice to have. Also a shame that the red interior is not an option, here's hoping that it is country dependant!

As for the GR parts for the UK, I would be sceptical if UK dealers offer it officially, since Fensport is the official UK importer of those parts, but I would gladly be proven otherwise!
The UK press release said:

The interior colour-ways also reflect the driving focus – all black, with silver accents, or black with
deep red upholstery details, stitching, carpets and door cards.
So it looks like the UK cars should get the red interior bits.

I hope you are correct but specifications can change at short notice before launch, so until we actually get it in writing from Toyota U.K. and it’s on the configurator we can only wait and hope 🤞 if I recall U.K. spec GRY was different from other European markets 🤔 Didn’t some countries get heated seats and heated steering wheel , sorry to bring up old wounds, 🤔
 
In UK, we must be very close to GR86 price list release and ordering as the Aygo X and today BZ4X launch is kicked off and corolla cross is autumn as per Toyota. Also, from the global forum its seen Germany customers are able to place actual orders and get the confirmation e-mail directly from Toyota. Hopefully we can do soon.
My personal experience is Toyota e-mail confirmation and status on my-toyota app is what matters based on a new toyota Yaris cross customer after 7 months of waiting, the spec and price will get honored if order is confirmed by e-mail.

Base GR86 price in Germany converts to under £29k - good.

Base GR86 in Germany priced a whopping 10 Euro below base GR Yaris - not so good.

It comes down to is the price, whatever it turns out to be, is it one you are happy to pay 🤔 When it’s finally announced we can all make that judgement 🤔
 
I've done it, I've done it. Wasn't able to resist and ordered my "Basis GR86" (as Toyota Germany calls it) in magnetide grey metallic with 18" wheels and parking sensors :).

Bye for now Fred
Congratulations, is that the Base model? Is yours 6MT? I’ll add you to the pre-order/order list 👍
 
They call it Base Model GR86 (the "cheap" one is called Pure), 6MT with 18". The paperwork will reach my doorstep in a few days and it won't be a preorder, it's definitiv an order :cool:

Bye for now Fred
 
Im afraid ive switched my order from a magnetide grey gr86 into the same for a bz4x.. So no GR Garage status for me

But ill have a complete alternative garage.. Petrol(the GR Yaris)
Plug in(our Rav4 PHEV)
And the Bz4x (EV)

Why? A change in circumstances makes the latter cars into daily drivers, the purchase price of my fully specced 86 touches that of the standard/mid range Bz4x(minus gov incentives), plus the ability to charge 2 electrified vehicles at home makes the decision easy albiet a sad one.

The running cost of the bz4x is 75% less than the GR86 giving the planned 15k mileage a year 🤷‍♂️(700-900 in electricity versus 2500 in petrol)

The RAV4 PHEV is used for shorter Trips, it's still on its initial tank of fuel.. As it runs mainly electric

Sorry you’re not ordering the GR86 , but circumstances change. Pleased you are going for the bZ4X , we are also interested in the bZ4X at some point in the future. It’s a pity the steer by wire system is not an option from launch in Europe, I’m keen to see how that performs 🤔
 
No idea what’s happening at Toyota UK, as all other model launches are done now except GR86 and other Corolla cross is Q3 2022.

In Germany the launch was done and now it’s closed for 2022 and waiting list for 2023 for GR86 like GR Yaris !

That's the exact reason why I have paid a blind deposit when I realised only 400 were coming to the UK. For most not 'in the know', these GR86s will be sold out before they even realise it's available to buy.

Only 400 to the UK? How did you find out? That is such a low volume car, I hope they do choose to bring it to the UK 🤞

Erm, the first post of this thread? lol.
 
Just asked Toyota UK when the GR86 is launching in the UK - response below! :unsure:

No information on that model here in the UK, sorry!

Ahhh :ROFLMAO: - think that post predates my joining of the forum, though he also says colours will be the same as the GRY which they're not (as much as I'd like the metallic red).
Still feels we're a long way off anything in the Uk - filtering Google by articles in the last week all point to 'being on sale mid 2022', personally I take that as we'll be able to place an order mid 2022 for delivery maybe Q3/Q4 2022 at a guess
