New TRD 86 concept

Over in japan, they just had a big 86 meet. TRD, Inspired by griffon have a new track and street concept.

Both look good with a lot of parts i hope they put in production!

Official sites here

Swan neck wings are all the rage i guess? Love the front bumper the front fenders the rear exhaust and rear bar/diffuser setup! looks of inspiration here...

I find the exterior to look pretty plain so some little styling and lines really goes a long way.

They don't make one for it, they prob think their replacement air filter is enough for minimal gain,if any.

Yes, TRD does make an air intake kit.

And you're right, aftermarket intakes in general add little to no horsepower - TRD's own included.

Better wing efficiency, ie more downforce.

Lose the wing.

Also, the front fender flares after the wheel is kind of cool.

I wish they would eliminate the shark fin; it looks gaudy and cheap. The grill has an improved look. Really liking those headlights; curious to see what the back looks like. Always been a fan of a bold bright color for the brakes. The black roof is a nice touch on the white car, but for the red, not sure how that would turn out. Really like how the body is indented behind the front wheels. That simple design gives the vehicle more character, style, swag, etc.

WANT: Vented fenders and that rear bumper - diffuser - exhaust combo.


Don't care for everything else exterior on the cars.
Want all that alcantara/suede goodness too! ...but without the Orange.

The white car has a completely different bumper.
The roof is carbon.
And the fender is actually vented!
