I'm bitter with Toyota's reluctance to truly improve this platform over time (a touchscreen head unit and shark fin is hardly groundbreaking), so this may come off as harsh but...
So much for motorsports heritage, as TRD USA has all but ignored the platform, and Toyota has not sponsored the 86 in any real racing series (drifting does not count) in North America except for that ridiculous attempt with Ken Stout.
C'mon Toyota, balance my ass...the car should be a tad faster. Change the final drive, tweak the ecu, make the heads freer flowing, we don't need 40 more hp, just something a bit more from the factory...
