How to play with your 86
 

Need some of your expert advice guys. I'm in charge of marketing for a Toyota dealer down in South Africa. I want to put together an infographic on the 86. Besides the obvious stats etc, need some fun things you as an owner would do with your baby. Whether its drifting on the tracks or accessorising. Thanks for your ideas! :thumbup:

i could post pictures of what ive done to my tires, they have chunks taken out of them from drifting lol...

but being completely serious, you should make a video about a guy in another car on his normal commute to work, then show him fantasizing about the gt86 he just saw on tv where he takes the longer way home, where he goes through turns getting the tail out just a tad(instead of the straight roads he normally takes), and the biggest smile on his face, and now having a better reason to be antsy for getting off work a few minutes early just to do so.

the car is about fun, not about being better than other sports cars, but at the same time we got lucky enough to have a gotten a good looking car in the process

1. put all the money into r&d instead of the interior
2. look and feel like a more expensive sports car, but be affordable
3. the car is about the thrill of the drive at SANE speeds, there isnt a funner car to drive around a corner at 30mph other than an AE86

i reckon Toyota should organise track days and/or advanced driving (cough) drifting (cough) courses..

@carbonBLUE @Vladror thanks for those suggestions guys. I spent the afternoon watching drifting vids on YouTube. One particular one by Keiichi Tsuchiya, and I have to admit though I don't drive an 86, I kept on trying to get my tail to do a little wobble on the way home from work :)

I was told as a child if I play with my 86 too much, I'd go blind. :D

DRIFT BIBLE! :D
