Hello fellow 86 / BRZ / FRS fans,

Received the latest issue of Wheels Australia yesterday in the mail and attached to it was a special issue all about the Toyota 86.

Haven't had a chance to have a read of it, but from the contents it covers

the origins of the design and development of the 86 (not that we don't know it back to front already)
a 3,500 drive from top to bottom of Japan in the 86;and
the Toyota 86 debut at the Nürburgring.

Hope you enjoy the read!

Received my copy of Wheels magazine yesterday and the following came as a special attachment, very flash.

Has some additional development info which I hadn't seen before.

Enjoy

Note:
If you want the PDF, ask him & not me lol

Nice! Anyone noticed the wording for front and rear suspension pictures are messed up?

If you have an iPad, you can download the "wheels showroom" app and it has the article for free.

If you read page 12 in the pdf (page24 of the doc) they talked about doing a touge run in Agagi with DK. I wonder if they also run the line up to Mount Haruna for comparison.
