Production Numbers
 

Looking for production numbers by year, bonus points for including colors.

I know Toyota is rather tight lipped about it, and this may have been covered before, so apologies in advance.

Ultimately trying to find out how many other MY16 Ravens were made :)

I have spent hours and hours looking for that data. It does not seem to be available.
There was some questionable data in and old thread someplace where a guy claimed to have found the breakdown of colours for the 2013 MY.


From memory (and remember they were not official to start with):


Black 20%
White 20%
Silver 15%
Red 15%
Blue 15%
Grey 10%
Orange 5%


In summary when looking for the number of Ravens the total would be a shitload.

Hmm, well thanks. Maybe this information will surface later, as was the case with the Celica and Supra.

Maybe but I doubt it. There is no value to Toyota in releasing this and anything that doesn't come directly from them is questionable anyway.

I have sales numbers by month, but not separated out by color, model year, etc... Assuming MY16 sales *started* around Sept (because they're now selling MY17 Toyota 86's as of Sept)...

Between Sept 2015 and Sept 2016, 8495 FR-S were sold.

Assuming 20% of them were Raven...

That's a total of 1699 Raven examples for MY16. But, those numbers are gonna be inaccurate.

Yep, sales numbers are easy to get but they don't mean much without production numbers. Could have sold 1000 black ones in one month and none in the next.

So does everyone with Google...

With 60k sold so far and almost no noteworthy trim levels or upgrades, the only 'rare' 86's will be Scion's silly release series and a late model orange car with MT.

A 2013 blue (not WRB) BRZ with a MT will be the winner for rarity between the two badges.

I find those numbers surprising. I see lots of orange, white, and red FR-Ss driving locally, but over the years, I can think of having seen only one silver one ever. I'm not sure if I've ever seen a blue one.

Granted, I live in South Carolina and every car is a pickup truck.

No doubt regional preferences will skew what you see. Around here it is mostly red, blue or white that I spot. The black or white ones can also sneak past without even noticing them.

I never see Hot Lava or Ultramarine here. Everything else is very common in Northern California. I usually see more BRZs though.

Well, nobody bothered chiming in with that. lol

Silly huhhhhh, hmmmm silly. I got to sleep on that one, and rethink my life some more :confused0068::barf::bonk::bow::respekt::eyebulge:

jmho

Three thousand bucks for a different shade of paint and a bunch of 'features' I have zero interest in just never tickled my fancy.

Glad you're happy with yours!

:cheers:

Just remembered something - The dealer that I got mine from said there were only two MY16 Ravens, and a red(?) one left in all of Pennsylvania.

It's all about the headlights my man. The 86 just looks wrong without them.

If you lined up every headlight that's come in an 86 I don't think I could pick mine out.

Edit: seriously, in that picture I guess that angular white bar is what you're excited about? I really don't care.

Can't see it when I'm driving it, don't care what it looks like, and I'm strongly anti-HID.

:burnrubber:

We need to start a club! I despise those things for so many reasons.

I'm already in that club, and I'm the CEO. HIDs are one of the worst automotive trends, ever.

That is the day time running LED lights = increased safety depending upon time/ place. Are we all for , or against being more safe on the open roads with other drivers ? ... check them tires ...... at least out here in CA, lots of people run their tires thin, then rain hits ... and people are driving way-way slower , slipping and sliding :thumbsup: Safety is job #1 :thumbsup::clap:

I wonder how many 10 series they have O.o ?

lol jk.

DRL have been on every 86 in every trim level across the world since the car has been made, so my car already has DRL. I guess those look different than my car? idfk, it's not making me nod my head and say 'oh yeah definitely worth spending extra money to get those'.

NHTSA and IIHS are critical of most car manufacturer headlights for inducing too much glare for other motorists. The IIHS just released it's headlight report and labeled 1 out of 82 cars as 'good', literally 1 car passed their test with flying colors (the new Prius V btw). The base halogens in the Honda Accord is noted as scoring 'acceptable' while the LED 'upgrade' scores lower at 'marginal', likely due to glare.

What part of California are you driving in? Dumbasses up here don't slow down at all in the rain which is why every major freeway gets an accident during any noteworthy storm. I agree proper lighting and tires and brakes are absolutely necessary for safe motoring, but all of those come on a base model 86.

Sounds like you are all good to go then on your exterior lighting situation then.

In some circumstances it is good to slow down a bit during a rain storm (especially when it is really dumping down) , but if it is light to moderate raining... and you have good tires ( I have Michelin hydroedge rain tires on my xA) , then posted speed limit can be maintained.. going that speed steady.

I live where it doesn't rain much , 30 miles from the coast , however mainly rains (Dec-March ... off/on). We got about a 1/4" a week ago.

I went autocrossing in that 'storm'

Most fun I've had all month, just wish I was in my car and not someone elses, oh well.

:burnrubber:

ohhh yeah you are from SF.

That storm was pretty much from Santa Barbara and to the north. I think Sat. night was the heaviest point. The kicker with first storms of the season is the oil run off / dirty roads , so cars can get squirly out there, especially when rolling with a janky tire that almost has no tread left on it , and abrupt stopping going 30+ mph
Stay safe folks
