So, the Supra guys had no info on the 86 (or at least played dumb). However, the press photos for the A91 edition of the Supra were taken at the track. My track manager friend confirmed that the new 86 was going to be likewise photographed at the track in the near future (he made it sound imminent but hasn't yet told me the actual date and I'm not sure if he really can).

The previous image was taken at the track for the special edition Supra, which shows that the track is indeed a location used by Toyota to take promotional pictures for upcoming models. I'll keep prodding my track manager friend for more info on when the new 86 will be at the track for its photos, and I'll make sure to share whatever info I can. |

Well, I never saw it in sunlight, only conference center showroom lighting. But I'd assume it looks just as good.

The car in the link I posted looks quite a bit different than the one in that Autoblog article from October. This one is from a few days ago and it looks very similar to the renderings from Best Car. |
