THE GR86 range is simple – there’s a choice of a manual or an automatic gearbox (the latter is a £2,090 option) and one of six colours. The Ice Silver paint of this test car is £645 extra, which added to a base price of £29,995, brings the total to £30,640.
Design & engineering
THAT list price really jumps out as being quite cheap for a modern performance car. Once you look through the specs, it seems almost too good to be true.
Toyota started the development of the GR86 with its predecessor, the GT86.
