But Africa isn't just pretty mountain views, and stunning mountain roads.
See last pic -
You get to test your brakes and evasion skills too - LOL!!

I see.. Didn't know that.. So the high version has the GT86 LED strips I assume and push to start? What's the difference?

Yep, plus heated seats, digital speedo, 17" wheels iso 16", cruise control, dual zone climate control iso std aircon, smart entry sytem, and a few other odds and ends.

The only ones I miss are the digital speedo and cruise control. I like the 16" wheels which have better resiliance with potholes etc, and they still handle exceptionally well. And, without a digital speedo, my wife doesn't know how fast I drive because she can't see the analog speedo.

adjusted the clutch engagement point to allow for smoother shifts...
now pedal grabs lower on clutch release and feels more natural..
many thanks to ft86club.com for all this good info..
