I stopped reading after this point:

AERODYNAMIC ENGINEERING.
The aerodynamic design of the 86 is the result of lessons learned in Toyota's Motorsports experience, including F1.
With a coefficient of drag (Cd) of .27, the 86 is slicker than supercars like the Porsche 911 Turbo (.31) and the
Ferrari F458 (.33).

Like DarkSunrise has mentioned, those cars create downforce at speed hence the relatively higher Cd #s.

They state "numbers can't define this car" yet they go and compare a number in order to say "at least the 86 is better than 458 and 911 turbo in this!!"

Pathetic.
