Just seen the special edition coming next year. Looks great in orange.

Like the orange but all can be done to an existing one. Stickier tyres, exhaust, unpainted ducktail, all could be done cheaper. It doesn't devalue ours since it's rare anyway. Those wheels look a nightmare to clean too.
 
Limited to 860 units in the US , other than the orange “Solar Shift” paint (which looks like Toms Racing Orange) 👍 not a huge amount to be excited about 🤔 The Spanish GR86 “Circuit Pack” sounds much more appealing 😎


There is a video link in the press release

Not sure if this is the same special edition that Japan will have later in 2023 :unsure:
 
Given I chose Silver, Im not sure Orange is aimed at me :ROFLMAO: now if TUK bring a sports exhaust to the party,(and the ducktail!) Im pretty sure they could make some extra cash for the sake of 1 shipping container!
 
Probably a sign of the times but this latest “Edition” looks a bit “done on a tight budget” compared to the GT86 the Hakone Edition , offered in the US market. I can understand how in Europe the cost of all regulatory “stuff” and testing makes anything different prohibitive but with a GR TRD parts bin sat there something it wouldn’t be hard to make something very special 🤔😎



Saying that it would match No1 Son’s Peformance Edition , which did get special lightweight alloys and adjustable coil overs to go with the orange paint 😎

Is that rear diffuser painted black as a opposed to left unpainted?

That’s the only thing I would change about the GR86. That and maybe colour coded seat belts.
