Maik's new asphalt grey GT86

Last week i picked up my brand new GT86.
I've never been so excited.


The images shown my winter-setup. Stockrims with hankook wintertires, lowering with Eibach-Springs (front 30mm, rear 40mm).

I bohght 18" rims for summer (Barracuda Karizzma).
Tomorrow will be installed a Soundsystem.
Next comming up a Cusco front strut and a
exhaust from KKS.

...enjoy

Nice shots! Are the Eibach springs the Pro-Kit or Sportline or does Germany have different kinds? And was it an option offered by all Toyota dealers in Germany?

This is the Pro-Kit by Eibach. I bought the springs together with the rims and tires from a tire dealer. He gave me a very good price.


Basically I had the springs also can order at the car dealer. This is an optional extra that offers any Toyota dealer in Germany.

Thanks all !

The color is asphalt gray and can be ordered as an option from the dealer.

I took the pictures with a D700.
