That would make more sense. I enquired about the launch and tried to squeeze an invite but was told that it was only for Toyota dealers and sales people... Pity we don't have something like a first 86 over here, it would of been pretty sweet.

i got a feeling there's going to be lots of white 86s on the streets. Judging by the tracking order screenshots and photo i saw.

really tempted to do. But i'll wait since I don't want to avoid warranty, I wonder if there is a smoked or a black version of the stock headlights, it'll go with the black tinted windows, wheels and after market spoiler (thinking about the carbon fiber GT wing), then again that's all in future...

or rock it out like this...

Yeah that's pretty hot! I've got my own colour scheme in mind. Might happen after warranty expires

My delivery date should be June

Just got confirmation from my dealer that my car will be landing in Australia this month!!!!!!

Email Quote:

"here is the info for the 86 user code xxx password xxx you won’t see much info on the Toyota site as these vehicles haven’t been released yet but the vehicle is on a ship that docks on the 11/05/12 so it will be one of the first vehicles we receive after release, we do not have a confirmed date for release as yet other than it is in June."

That was always their plan JFC if you were privy to the factory documents, was supposed to be released to the dealers in May. I've heard the cars are in Australia also. So sick of having to speculate everything, can't wait to post more facts.

LOL!I just had an IM chat with my dealer about the 86 (can't dub it mine yet) about changing colours of the car, by the looks of it, i'm keeping the white!if I do change colours I won't receive the 86 till next year, he told me im in the first batch (not sure of how many cars = a batch) of 86s, i mean i'm not too fussy with colours. Blue would be nicer though.


Not getting done now, but i wonder how much will it cost to paint an 86? It'll sweet in Subaru's WR Blue! Some say, "why don't just get the BRZ then?" my answer..."I don't know, something about the 86 won me over..."
