2013 86 TRD Edition
 
Ok, I love my FRS and have been looking at doing a few mods. Nothing too radical. However in my search I came across this Youtube video from years back. Its from a Toyota dealership in Donegal. From the number of views not too many have seen it. Im posting it because Im pretty sure if the 86 in this video was offered in the states it wouldve been incredible. He even mentions a turbo was going to be available. Check it out and I think youll agree, its the 86 of your dreams.... One last item....where the heck are all those TRD parts?

Also, it's not identical, but we did get something pretty close here in the United States.

Ignore what dealers and salesmen say ..
I've heard some dumb stuff from them .. ie. if you want a turbo then go to subaru for a BRZ because they have that as a factory option.
I asked him to repeat that and he said did with 100% certainty.

why would a car salesman tell you to go to another dealership to buy a different car? :iono:

If the FRS in that video was offered in the states it would have been $50K and they would have sold about two of them.

That edition was released here @EddieZ2 with the brembos. Was meant to be 20 released but only nine sold including my one http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23305 and @Tech one http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=99536

OP the RS 1.0 was the only TRD Edition sold in the usa.
The body kit you posted was a factory option for other countries.

@funwheeldrive the RS 1.0 and Toyota 86 Blickline Edition (Australia) had the same unique TRD body kit from TRD.

I know, that's why i said it's not identical. They are similar looking though.
