I found it surprising that the Hakone comes debadged from the factory. Nothing on the rear except the Toyota emblems.

Surprising, actually. I have never heard of a mainstream car that was debadged by the factory. It shows how Toyota and/or the people involved in managing this project have been willing to do things that are different and against the mainstream, more for the individuality of the product and client. This, I believe, is one of the lessons learned from the Scion brand. Otherwise, Toyota could have become the perpetual supplier of gold Corollas (for Canada) and similar Camrys for the US.

The GT86 badge could have been used but the car isn't officially named GT86 in North America, just plain 86. And its not an FRS anymore either so that badge wouldn't work either. Its sort of similar with the Scion iM. Theres no Corolla badge anywhere on the car when it became the Corolla iM. |

Yea, me neither until now, but now that I know I can't unhear it.
I did know Alan Cumming performed it in the Viva Rock Vegas live action movie, which I'm sure was the lowlight of his career.

My 2018 86 GT Black Edition also didn't come with any badging in the back. People often don't know what the car is.
