    GR86 GR86- Cars for sale - General Discussion

    Yes the price seems fairly static and the number for sale has dropped as you describe, might be into the teens before long - and once single figures watch the price rocket 🚀🤞😆

    GR86 CAR magazine GR86 “final drive”

    I was hoping for an epic road trip however it seemed more like a recap of everything you probably already know about the GR86: https://www.carmagazine.co.uk/car-reviews/toyota/gr86-coupe/ I liked the last line tho’: “ It’s like a Porsche Cayman with two extra seats for £20k less. Bravo! “

    So how do you think the ZEV Mandate is going to go then? Scrapped entirely pre-election? (22% EV sales in 2024, 28% in 2025 etc) https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/361918/zev-mandate-electric-car-sales-targets-become-law

    GR86 Evo Tyre Test 2023 with GR86

    Interestingly a GR86 was used for the annual tyre test, so might come in handy at some point for someone (likely not for a while for me!). It’s not Evo Car of the Year so hope I’m not upsetting anyone with spoilers (if so please shout!) - Continental SportContact7 was the overall winner and was...

    GR86 UK GR86 numbers

    I wondered this, looking through the “orders / owners / register” thread the last add to the original order list was #210. (i.e. “batch 1”) I make it 20 “adds” requested since then, from page #245, starting with Mute101 on 6/6/23 (i.e. these are “batch 2”)

    GR86 UK GR86 numbers

    If there is indeed a second batch (as opposed to cancelled orders that became available) I’d have thought we’d end up at over the 430 or so that was originally thought to be the total? It might’ve given us a clue however the list of orders on here doesn’t appear to be updated any more - I’ll go...

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    Went to the Goodwood Breakfast Club with my wife and 9 year old son, first time with more than two people in the car - she was surprised at the lack of room and son asked why the car was so noisy! Also saw this one there, wife said I should have gone for the blue 😂. Popped into the local...

    GR86 More cars on the way..

    Quoted from this thread on PH, quite interesting as there are possibly not any (or many!) extra cars after all, guess we’ll know one day via howmanyleft or suchlike! https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=23&t=2038085&i=80 “ As someone who’s still waiting for my order from April...

    GR86 Electric GR.

    Interesting if it’s not vapourware, surprised it’s only 100kg more than the ICE. Toyota are more focused on self charging hybrids than EVs 😂

    GR86 What optional extras would you have paid for if you had the choice when buying the GR86?

    I ticked sunroof but would have liked the option of this roof, obviously dependent on how much extra price and weight and loss of torsional rigidity! https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/motor-shows-tokyo-motor-show/tokyo-motor-show-toyota-ft-86-open-concept
