I’ve asked a company to design a GR 1 of 430 badge. This is what they have come up with. Thoughts? Anyone else interested?

Looks great - would be keen!

Even better if we get the numbers right. I'm order number 2 for example.
 
I don’t think we can have a different number as it would take too much time , atm it’s a one time design. I guess if we had a bulk buy and 150 of us were willing to buy then there’s a chance each of us could have a different number but I’m okay with 1 of 430 tbh. In regards to maybe waiting to see if any more are built, I’m in the camp of I don’t think there will be so I’ll risk it, and if they do, well can just remove it.

Update; Let me look at it tomorrow. I will try and find a text style which
Can be re-typed then the number Changing then won’t be an issue.

Doesn’t include the demo cars, 1 of 500 seems better, but may not be accurate on the total volumes.
 
Reality is unless Toyota actually state how many have come to the U.K. ( we live in hope 🤷‍♂️) we won’t know for about 6 months after the last delivery what the number is. As @Chris Mc points out there are also demo cars and press / training vehicles.

End of the day a gel sticker ain’t going to break the bank , a lot cheaper than fixing the clutch pedal , gear knob and throttle response 🤔 (if you feel the need to ) 😂

Personally I’d prefer something that looks more like the 10th Anniversary Plaques once we know the actual numbers

 
If we do it, let's do it properly! 1 of 430 makes it sound like everyone received the first car no?

We could remove the 430 and have it like a serial number? 001,002,003 etc then it doesn't matter if they add more?

And think we should ignore demo cars
 
What to put on said plaque is an interesting debate 🤔 ultimately we will know how many cars are coming/came to the U.K. ✅ , not sure how build number would work as the GR86 is built in between lots of other cars 🤔 the one thing every owner will know is when their car started life in Gunma , as I’m assuming folk know their build date from the MyT information 🤔
 
Best to wait a year or so until all cars are registered and we'll be able to verify the number of GR86s registered in the UK here:
