I checked their website and the GT86 is still available for rent.
You are taking hearsay from another post and quoting it as fact.
Do you know for sure they are dropping these cars from the fleet based on one
employees passed on say so? Maybe another employee is saying they just ordered 30 more.. you are spreading doom and gloom like a farmer spreads manure..

I agree with your skepticism - my take; this is a potentially sensitive issue for the rental company (maybe they have a standing agreement with the manufacture?) and for them to start advertising their dislike or disappointment for Toyota on message forums they could be liable for defamation or any other legal infraction. The next best thing you'll get; hearsay. I give some credence to the OP because he mentions the rental car employee by name. Inquiring minds could also shoot an email to other Ring rental car agencies whom have the toyobaru in inventory and ask how their maintenance records look like.

Plus rental cars for the nurburgring aren't the best maintained.

Talking about manure spreading..
Race rental cars are very well maintained. You sign a liability form, of course, but no form will hold up to gross negligence. These cars get sold to the public after many miles and must pass TUV inspection with flying colors. To say these cars don't get maintained is like saying water isn't wet. Your ignorance let alone sheer lack of reading comprehension is awe inspiring, the fact that you two drive on public roads is more terrifying than the DI seal busting.
