Talking NEW owner of a 2017 Toyota 86!

Hey guys,

Just joined the forum! I recently bought a White 2017 Toyota 86! I'm ready to learn a lot about this car from this forum. I've owned a mx-5 miata, camaro, bmw z4 and now this. So far it's a blast to drive almost everywhere with! Compared to my past cars, this one has an amazing connection with the car and driver :burn rubber

CONGRATULATIONS on your purchase and WELCOME to ..... The Forum .....

Looks like you have had some nice cars .....

So, are you ready to start learning ..... ??

Good. Read the manual, put the highest test premium gas you can find at a name brand station and keep on top of the maintenance according to the maintenance guide. Keep far back from the parking stops.

That's all.

Enjoy your new machine .....

Welcome! Would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the 86 compared with the cars you've owned in detail

I understood what you meant, no worries. I just didn't know that such a small number was being made.

Cool car history, after driving the 86 for a while you should write up how the 86 stacks up, both good and bad
