Just wondering if anyone knows if they are sold out now and how many cars were in the second batch? Did everyone on the waiting list who wanted one get invited to buy?

I guess there must be a few curbed wheels out there by now. Has anyone had reasonable results using a touch up pen? I used a black sharpie to make mine a bit less noticeable but thinking of doing something a bit more permanent. I’ll probably smooth the scuff with a dremel first. Interested...

Had my first heart in mouth incident today.😬 Was overtaking a couple of slow SUVs on a dead straight road, 3rd gear and I felt the back end start to go sideways as I passed. Temp gauge was showing 14degC so not exactly cold. I driven a fair few RWD cars in the past and not really had that...

I know some of you have PPF😬 https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=10&t=2022183

Glad I asked the dealer not to wash mine😬 Assume from the plate it belongs to someone on here?

I’m tempted to unplug mine just to see the difference. Anyone done it yet? Looks easy, but the only thing holding me back is I suspect it might be a whole lot more difficult plugging it back in again.

Just popped on YouTube.

I initially thought the seats were really comfortable , but I’m finding on longer journeys I can feel some pain/discomfort/numbness in my right buttock travelling down my thigh. A quick bit of Googling tells me this could be pressure on my sciatic nerve. It’s difficult to work out what exactly...

Every car I’ve owned I’ve left the aircon all year round, I find I need the AC on in winter to prevent the screen fogging up. With the GR86 I can turn it off and not have those issues. On one hand having it off will save a bit of fuel and theoretically leave more engine power for acceleration...

This popped up on one of the Facebook GR86 groups Quite surprised he span out as he had full traction control on and wasn’t being too reckless, I guess it must have been black ice.

I’ve been keeping an eye on the oil temps to make sure I don’t overheat it while it’s still tight and running in. Generally seeing low to mid 90s degC depending on how hard I’m pushing it. Which is pretty low I guess. The temp is pretty responsive to load, will rise 2-3degC with moderate...

I didn’t realise the manuals had this. Was backing out onto a main road today where my vision was obscured by parked cars either side of me and it detected a car coming - flashed up a warning icon on the big screen and beeped. Looking in the manual it looks like there is radar sensors in the...

Great video…. Shorter version here….

Just checked my oil and it’s 1-1.5cm above the max mark. Anyone else checked theirs?

My headlight washers had frozen half open this morning, after spraying them with de-icer and driving around for a few hours they’ve gone back in. How do I test if they are working? I’ve put the lights on and used the screen washer, but they don’t seem to be doing anything - either covers opening...

Looks like fun, same thing as auto cross in the US I think.

if I start the car to defrost and go back in the house(with the key). If someone tries to nick the car does it stop when the key is out of range?

When I pull the catch at the top of the seat on the passenger side to get in the back, the seat slides forward and the back tilts forward. On the drivers side it just tilts forward and doesn’t slide. I don’t know if this is a fault or by design, can someone check their car. Thanks.

Finally got my car today👌. The tyre pressure screen is showing [email protected] and 1x2.6bar. The manual says they should be 2.4bar, so will let some air out tomorrow. I guess it might make the ride a bit more compliant - anyone else played with the tyre pressures?

Thought would be useful to start a new thread for those of us still waiting and have questions. As mentioned in another thread, looking at the pics of the rear bumper on several dealer demo cars there are 4 pilot holes/divots on the rear bumper, presumably for JDM spec square plates. Question...
