Its been orderable for a while now. I ordered mine in Decmeber! There is a forum in the EUROPE section where we have been discussing pricing and extras this for the last couple of days! A dealer leaked the info.

It is more expensive than everyone was originally expecting but given the massive increases in prices of cars over the last couple of years it isn't too bad.

It is about the same as most of the hot hatchbacks (but a fair bit slower as they are all turbos) but will still attract anyone wanting a proper sports car. The closest natural rival is the MX-5 (Miata) which is ~£20k.

So it's £5k more for a GT 86 than a Miata? That is insane!

In Canada that is reversed, at least for the FR-S version - it's $3k CAD (£1875) cheaper for the FR-S. Of course our base Miata has the 2 litre engine, I think yours is a lower output smaller 1.6 or something, so that would account for some of the difference, but nowhere near the full £6875.

Miata price is wrong. They are like 24K base and Touring (with LSD i believe) is over 26K. So actually GT86 is middle of the Miata price range.

^ That makes a lot more sense.

currently Mazda is doing deals on they pay the tax and 0% finance so you can get a 2L for less than £20k (atleast for the soft top)
