2020 86 news

https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/2...-android-auto/

Here is some news on the 2020 86. The article cites a news release from Toyota, but I was unable to find it on the Toyota USA newsroom site. Essentially Toyota gets some of the 2019 TRD Edition model upgrades as an option like the BRZ Performance Package, but they call it a TRD Handling Package. Brembos, Sachs dampers, and 18 inch rims with Pilot Sport tires. They also offer it on the base model (Only? Not clear.). Considering Subaru is said to no longer even offer their base model, this is a unique combination. Also new is Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. I am excited by that last part since I’m hoping it's just a simple software update of my older radio, or at the very least I can switch the head unit out while still under warranty.
