    GR86 Would you consider trading in a manual for auto gearbox?

    Few years back I was looking at lexus offerings. Lexus Lc 500 auto torsen limited diff was hailed as the last real deal gt car compared to hybrid version of the same car. So it is all relative I think. The auto gr86 can still be insane machine to drive. You can scare/entertain all your 3...

    GR86 Wireless Apple Car Play

    I use usbc wired connection. My wired Apple car play stopped working today. After some investigation I had to try another iPhone using another cable. As soon as the head unit asked permission to use Apple car play with this new phone, my old phone also started connecting OK. So the head unit...

    GR86 Flat battery after being parked for 2 days

    Just to report back on this. Left the GR86 at home on holiday mode where one cancels the keyless entry (explained in the short user manual). After a month the car started immediately. The battery meter was showing 14 volts which is as good as it gets. So far I’m happy with battery drainage...

    GR86 Would you consider trading in a manual for auto gearbox?

    In south east traffic (London and counties) auto is a no brainer daily driver. Eats up the miles without drama but if you want the drama (in a good way ) it is still a great sports car in track+sports mode. Or in full manual mode. Eye sight system really does work, perfect for stop and go or...
