That one is great. I think it's awesome that it's using the OEM 86 wheels.

A huge % of cars these days have shared parts or engines or chassis or something from a partner/donor. The development cost of new cars is massive, so to make it profitable this often the only way.

This ^^^ I’m pretty sure my dad’s GMC truck has a Toyota developed or produced and assembled engine.

Sure, but a lot of people who are buying a Toyota aren't crazy about the idea of maintaining a BMW engine. Just like the 86. I would much that our cars came with a Toyota inline 4 instead of a Subaru Boxer.

Isn't even really a "these days" thing. This has been happening for several decades and is not a new fad like many seem to think.
