JiB's White GT - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

JiB · 08-01-2012, 09:03 AM

Ordered June 4th.
Picked up on 31st July.

1 day later, odometer reading 200km

I have taken off in first a few times now and gone all the way to 6000rpm before remembering that i am suppose to be keeping it under 4k ish...

Only a couple of crappy phone pics so far, this weekend i'll try and take some better photos! Not enough GT photos!

I have had 3 strangers come up to me with and start conversations with the word, wow. This thing gets ALOT of attention!

There were a couple things that i was happy about that i thought only the GTS got. I remember reading that the GT didnt have keyless boot release, but it does

it has also bluetooth, that works really well with my galaxy note.

A couple photo's outside my local burger joint.

Wait until you get a message. I couldn't work out what was going on, and then my friend made my car say some pretty obscene things

wollongong toyota. I contacted like 28 dealerships (pretty much every dealership within a 100km radius of sydney) by 1 email, stating what i wanted, and when i wanted it and gave them an email to reply too. It worked very well, alot of helpful dealerships out there, and alot that are not.
They all knew that they all got the same email, so within 40 mins i had 8 dealers contact me with yes, no's & maybe's.
An hour before i did that i called 5 or so toyota dealerships and struggled to find someone to help. email is the way to go for the ground work

Yeah, but it can be slow and hard to understand. Pretty neat though, especially for a base model.

so tonight I realised that the steering wheel can move closer. no more rubbing my legs! yay! and more room to try heel-toe business

Hahahah! How funny is it when this happens. I only just realised 3 days ago that my IS250 has a USB input.
