Toyota 860
I guess this is the new "Release Series" from Toyota. Not a fan of the stripes but it does get the new spoiler.

Same price as the BRZ with PP with none of the goodies. The orange is a nice color, but looks red in some pictures. |

Nothing says it is going to be a special edition here.
No announcement from Toyota just two sites with almost identical text and some pictures of a RHD car. http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2...-features.html http://pressroom.toyota.com/ All I see is an Orange edition with some stripes and other black added and no PP Brembos.

If this really does not come w/ the PP goodies then this is definitely the worst "special edition"/"release series..."

Hmm makes it odd that they even announced US pricing.

Seems like a very poor value proposition. But perhaps that's because the BRZ offerings are really good value?

The sites announced speculative pricing. Toyota has announced nothing.

Does the US 86 not get that spoiler even as an option? |

Pretty much standard RS extras: "Besides the visuals, the 860 Special Edition also brings a push-button ignition, dual-zone automatic climate control, heated seats, and a larger TFT screen in the instrument cluster that includes g-meter and lap-timer functions in addition to trip information. Basically, it brings the 86 up to the equipment level of the Subaru BRZ Limited. There are no mechanical changes"

The US 86 only gets the old Scion spoiler. There's a good amount of options on the 860 you can't get on a US 86. I'm guessing the 2 colors are new as well. (edit) ^^What TCoat said. |
