Japanese Release Date
 
Hey guys, not sure if you've heard, but my friend in Japan says Toyota has announced the 86 will come out in Japan on April 6th.

chate 02-03-2012 04:55 AM
Yeah! One of the other threads discussing release suggests aug 6, IE 8/6

sure, it'd be cool numerically, but what about all the hair that i'd tear out of my head by then in anticipation!!

Nice. Too bad that I'm living in China...
AND i'm worrired if they don't import manual version. That would just ruin everything :-(

serialk11r 02-03-2012 05:33 AM
Wait not import manual version???
Is it because people in China who want a "premium" (aka non-econobox) car always get auto? Does this typically happen? :O
On the bright side, the auto is pretty capable looking and looks like it will get better mpg if you shift right.

I think Asian date format is dd/mm/yyyy, So it should be June 8th, no?

Since I haven't seen the source stating anything about FR-S release date, I can't really say anything. If I'm not mistaken, Only the US use mm/dd/yyyy.

The rest of the world write thier dates like day month year.

So it will be the 8th day of the 6 months and since you yanks are silly you have to wait two extra months!!!

Both the BRZ (Mar 28) and Toyota 86 (April 6) should be on the streets in Japan.

Has anyone seen anything?

Can anyone read what is being posted on the 86 Society page or other Japanese forums?
