Any 2018 86 GT or GTS on the road?

I am really curious if there are any 2018 86 on the market.They have the 2018 brochures ads but haven"t seen any at the dealers around Boston.

No, never got a brand new car so still waiting to see one. Based on your answer I think I have to wait for a few more months

Maybe they are keeping them inside, out of the winter storms, in the Boston area....

They are selling them out here .....

Somebody on the ft86 sub on Reddit posted they just picked their up a couple of days ago. So sounds like they're just now hitting the lots.

New here but picked mine up 2 Fridays ago. GT Black trim (Manual). Currently in Fresno, CA. This was the only GT Trim within the 250 mile radius... I had to drive 3.5 hours to get it as dealer wasnt willing to trade with my local dealers...

Hi Bounxou,

Congrats! After driving for some time please share us your experience. Especially if you owned/drove a previous version of the FRS/86.
What do you think about the audio system? Do you like the stock sound? Did you also get any TRD accessories with your purchase or just the car? lot of questions

Thanks

Ahhh......yes, Fresno, home of the "Fresno turn".

Yep, when you want to turn around, instead of pulling in then backing out ..... you back in, then pull out.

I've found out that by using a Fresno turn, when I back into things, I'm not in the middle of the highway .....
