I have only seen one red 86 on the road - it looks stunning. It's a flat red. I don't think there is any choice in terms of interior finish. Either std spec with the black Alcantara and small red inserts on the seats or black Alcantara/black leather on the high spec.

True, but look at the prices - ours are cheaper than what they're paying in the UK.

Sure ! Come over and I'll show you around, we can take one for a test if you like. The red is called lightning red. Looks quite hot. I think we had one or two. Nothing recently.

@sav well its between the red and the white.. in the fotos they look best, that orange is highly confusing its blinding in the sun and dull in some overcast pics, blue n silver also look kewl, black n grey jus dont do it for me- black is a nightmare to maintain.. learned my lesson the hardway lol. If possible can you post some interior pics- have not seen the high spec interior yet.

Cool, yeah the brochure shows them correctly painted so all they need to do is look.

For me it was white but then I saw the red one and wanted that but then decided to stick with my original choice and I'm glad I did because the white looks stunning in any light. I really do like them all but you can only choose 1 unfortunately.

I agree on darker cars, they are a pain to maintain.

I'll find some pics for you.

@sav....the TRD parts delivered to dealerships only have primer its up to the dealership to do the rest. Unfortunately it seems most dealerships (and customers) dont know whats the proper way to colour code the TRD kit therefore you see the entire kit coded the same colour.

I made 1000% sure even to the extent of going to the panel shop that was doing my kit to do it the right way.
