On both brands, spec / colour choices can mean vastly different delivery timescales.

For those considering premium ICE, remember there is quite a lot of cabin noise at times.

Test drove the auto GT86 last night at RMB Teesside. Burnt Orange with leather. I love the car, everything feels like it has had some thought put into it and as an engineer this sits really well with my OCD lol. My ogripes are the centre console cup holder thing is CRAP and I dont like the auto gear box. They are getting a manual shortly so I will go and test that too.

A quick note after a chat with my sales guy yesterday...

He's going on hols for two weeks from today. I asked what happens if my car is delivered while he's away. "Don't worry" he says. "I'll call you when I'm back and we'll arrange collection for then". Err, no!!!! Don't these people realise how excited we are to get our hands on our new toys?!?!?

Of course I'll let my new GT sit in your car park for two weeks while your away. I don't think so!!!

Sounds like he wants to see the car before it gets sold off.

Has anyone noticed that the GT 86 name doesn't appear on the back of the car adjacent the Toyota name.

The new Toyota.co.uk GT86 website makes specific reference to the GT86 badge on the rear. Oops!

Although you can't see in the pics the Black GT at my local dealers didn't have the badge. Weird.
