Hatsune Miku 86 / TRD 86 in Tokyo
 

Was in Japan last week on business, stopped by a Toyota showroom.
Right now there is a huge Hatsune Miku craze in Japan, and Toyotas aren't immune.

Call me crazy, but the 86 "itasha" doesn't look half bad.

Took these pics a few days ago.

Here is a list of touges in Japan which customers have said are best for the
GT86. Unsurprisingly, most of them are in Gunma prefecture. ]
I have driven on two of them and can imagine how fun they would be in an 86.

This page is cool. It says "Let's go to the touge." on the bottom-left corner.

Very nice.
Hatsune Miku ftw

Anymore pics of the Orange TRD???

Damn it! I knew someone would beat me to it before i bought my FR-S =(

Sweet! I have no idea what Hatsune Miku is, but I kinda like the anime graphics on the sides of cars lately. Not really sure why.

Needs Scion badges.

sorry to hate but i do not dig the whole "itasha" thing. i mean, there's a reason it's called itasha, they are painful to the eyes. i mean c'mon, hatsune miku? wth is that?

+1 on more pics of the Orange TRD please if you have more

I wonder they gonna take out Miku x BMW from GT300 & bring Miku x 86 instead ;)

Tokyo toyota showroom.. brb booking flights.

Hatsune Miku is a Vocaloid (the very first one made actually) from Yamaha.... a synthetic singer to digitally create songs. Basically open source singer for artists to create music with. Personally, 'she' is my favorite Vocaloid and has some pretty cool songs:

Vocaloids 'perform' in live concerts too:

And when you see "Hagane Miku" mentioned this is the side of Miku you get:

I guess you can say I like Miku, having 6 Miku albums in my collection, the Append Miku Figma (100th Figma made) posable figure, and pre-ordered the Racing Miku sculpted figure (since the beginning of this year...) I think Miku looks better when not on cars though...

you gotta love the Japanese :)

I want to paint that 86 logo on my garage floor like that!

Sorry guys, I didn't take more pics of the TRD 86. Now you guys make me regret not doing so! Oh well, since I go to Japan often perhaps next time?

Someone needs to make that livery in Forza 4 for the FR-S.
