I cant tell if they just copy/pasted some standard spec sheet off the Toyota website or not.
They also have no pics yet.

Im leaning towards no sachs/brembos though. Seems like to get those up here in Canada you either need to get the 2019 TRD edition or go for a BRZ Sport Tech RS.
The dealer sites are even worse than the Toyota Canada one.


Some call ALL trims an 86 GT which is confusing as hell.
One site said that the GT had 18" wheels for the MT and 17" for the AT.
Most seem to just use stock pictures for what they have on the lot so according to the posted adds they are all white no matter what colour it says.
The spec sheets can have huge variation from one dealer to another. None show everything though.
The build picture of the GT shows the Brembos and 18" wheels but the couple of actual pictures of in stock ones have just the normal brakes and wheels.
Nobody seems to have the TRD even on their sites. It is like it never existed.
Many do not even have an option to select the 86 in the new vehicle drop down boxes.
The prices can vary by a huge amount from one dealer to another. $37K for a GT? Really? With a Toyota Canada listed MRSP of $34K and no extra options added? Do some areas have such high demand they are marking them up?


They really REALLY just seem to not want anything to do with this car
