I think Toyota Aust. had good intentions for building a track with the release of the 86 as the impetus.

However from the lack of news since June/July when the video was released, I reckon that the plan was mothballed in the end.

http://www.caradvice.com.au/176966/t...plan-revealed/

In saying that, the "making of video" was only posted 1 month ago by Toyota Aust. So that is actually the most recent news we have... could still happen?

What an awesome ad! Thanks for posting!
I was at the movies yesterday and saw our ad (SA) for the first time on the big screen, way better than tv

Yeah, it immediately caught my attention when I saw it.

It's pretty sad that Toyota North America has lost it's fun and cool factor by passing it down to Scion.

i think you missed the point of this car buddy.

That guy is keichii Tsuchiya, he helped make the ae86 famous, which lead to the development of this car, which he also had input in designing.

if you dont know who he is, you need some education..
i suggest watching best motoring..
