Toyota 86 in new limited color "Solid Grey" - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Wheels look like 18" to me with the same style in BRZ PP.

Bring the PP to the 86, Toyota!

venturaII · 09-04-2017, 12:46 PM

Is that a real solid color, or is there still a hint of metallic/pearl in there?

Dadhawk · 09-04-2017, 12:51 PM

To me, I can't say. Both shots look like either a rendering or so touched up they might as well be. Like @Kaotic Lazagna said, I need to see it in person.

In general not a huge fan of gray though until it get's to darker shades. For example I really like the "Watkins Glen Gray Metallic" on the C7.

I think they used the wrong photo. lol.

Here's the actual interior of the "black package."

Leather/Alcantara heated seats. I guess in Japan, all 86 come without headunits, and you have the option of which kind of HU you want????

Chaetagnath · 09-04-2017, 01:01 PM

That looks awesome in my opinion. I would probably consider it if I were in the market for another toyburu.

Kaotic Lazagna · 09-04-2017, 01:02 PM

Seems like you can also get these interior combos.

It's available in every exterior color except black, which is ironic imo.

Description read as "Brembo exclusive 17-inch aluminum wheel (black paint / with center ornament)"

Here's a pic of the car in rain.

weederr33 · 09-04-2017, 01:48 PM

I'm a fan of that version for sure

I don't like dead colours.

That color will blend into the background and make it difficult to see. In rain it truly will be invisible. Take an already small car with a profile low enough that SUV drivers already can't see it and give it that paint? Better just assume that everybody is about to try to smash you.

Yep, extrashaky has a point, especially in the PNW, nine months out of the year.

When I first test drove a FR-S it was asphalt in color. My first thought was, what an awful name for a color for a car; my second thought was ...... ya, right that will blend right in with the road, so nobody will be able to see me.

I came out of a copper red miata and it seemed like a lot of people couldn't see me coming down the road.

People don't see me in my whiteout FR-S, which is weird. That's one reason why I got the clear side markers with very bright amber LEDs. Also why I got the Berk muffler delete, treating the car like a bike (if they can't see me, maybe they can hear me).

so, no radio, but you still get the steering wheel radio controls to fiddle with! fun!
