Hrm, I like the BRZ one better but I will be getting the FR-S so I need to get this one too. Any ETA on when this one goes on sale?

mattles 04-25-2012 05:21 PM

If it comes on a different color shirt than just white, Im totally in for one of these. Love the design.

R0ME0 04-25-2012 05:32 PM

I am a bigger fan of the 86 shirt!

It's not the same if it's not white though. Then it's not the Japanese flag. :P

86design 04-25-2012 06:33 PM

bestwheelbase 04-25-2012 07:35 PM

Hanzo, thanks for making this great design.

Here's Tetsuya Tada and Jack Hollis giving us some love!

And they're not the only ones who liked the shirt! Anybody want to see the rest of the photos? :D

ryangt 04-25-2012 07:37 PM

yes!

bestwheelbase 04-25-2012 07:44 PM

One of my favorite parts about this is how they excitedly wrote "86!" beside their signatures. The excitement is shared by us all! :happyanim:

Totally. We had some folks buy the first design who are getting an FRS. So much of the platform is shared, this is a celebration of the car and what it means. We will own one car but we will enjoy both and share our passion with drivers of any variant.

ionshards 04-25-2012 10:10 PM

This design is excellent! I'm definitely getting one of these too. Please make enough smalls so they don't sell out before I can order! :D

And, yes to more pictures!

Thanks guys.

pr0j 04-25-2012 10:22 PM

GrimmSpeed 04-26-2012 02:08 AM

Wow, great pic with the two of them. Very cool!

=O count me in. Nice and simple, just like the FR-S

MattR 04-26-2012 09:02 AM

Excellent design! I am guessing the 4 Japanese characters are Hachi Roku?

Will be ordering this as soon as they are available! :)

Tada-san and Nakamura-san liked it so much they asked if they could show it to the race team and maybe add it to the livery. That would be cool if we spotted it at a VLN race.

A Japanese car, on a German track, with artwork from shirts made in America. It's a beautiful world we live in. :thumbsup:

Any idea of having a black one or a shirt with the 86 logo on it? I think that would be :w00t:

A bunch of people have expressed interest in black. Our original concept was red ink on white fabric, as seen in the photos. Now is the time to contact us if you seriously want red on black. We'll do our best to accommodate your needs.

Edit: Hold up a second, are you referring to the 86 logo Toyota created which has the numbers inside a circle? That will NEVER be on our shirts. That is a copyrighted logo owned by Toyota and using it without their consent is illegal and uncool. We are dedicated to collaborating with creative enthusiasts on original designs exclusively.

CLTBRZ 04-26-2012 03:53 PM

LOVE this shirt. Already ordered the BRZ one, and this one will be ordered for sure as well.

As an aside, I love that it's a side profile pic so I don't feel like such an asshat with an FR-S shirt for my BRZ. Most people (non-car people anyways) likely won't be able to tell the difference!

poormans_LFA 04-26-2012 05:08 PM

bwb - i will buy one in white AND one in black if you choose to do the latter. :thumbsup: I'll still buy one in white if that ends up being the only color on offer. whatever the case I really really want the shirt!! btw, how do sizes run? I ask because I'd like to get a more fitted tee, as some XL's run more like XXL's and such. if you could provide the low down on that that would be awesome! thanks!!

Thank you for the feedback. Sizing details are posted at www.bestwheelbase.com/sizing/. Check our other threads for pictures of how the shirts fit. These will have the same cut as the first design.

Evil86 04-26-2012 08:06 PM

I see nothing specifically FR-S, so could it pass as a BRZ shirt, or am I missing something?

Look at the front bumper, it's FR-S style

bestwheelbase 04-26-2012 08:31 PM

The details are so subtle that really either should could pass for either car. They're both built on 86 architecture, that's the important part.

White shirt with blue ink, nao! :) :)

Maybe in the future. Contact us privately if you have a design idea to go with that color idea. :party0030:

I want red on black. I love this shirt red on white as it is since the red on black would kill the rising sun motif but I just don't look good in white t-shirts for some reason

Thanks for your feedback. We will be making a small number of red on black in response to this interest. Also, we have decided to do the inverse of the original concept... so get ready for to make a big impression... white on red!

White on red, woohoo! I think I suggested this in the other BRZ shirt thread too! Lol. Will these be printed on the same type of shirts as the other ones? (ie. Is the fit the same?)

You guys just want to take all my money don't you?

I'm a v-neck snob, but I'll continue to make exceptions for your shirts! :happy0180:

I'd like a shirt with an FA20 on it. It would appeal to my geeky sensibilities.

Yes, these will have the same soft feel and comfy fit as the other design.

Great minds think alike. :respekt:

Ohhh good idea! Geeky sensibilities are the best. Contact us privately if you have a specific design in mind and maybe we can collaborate on it!
