Let’s face it, the most discussed model today was the all-new Toyota GT 86, a model also known as Toyota 86 in the Japan. As you probably find out from our first post, the new GT 86 is the result of the (successful) partnership between Toyota and Subaru.

The model benefits from a 2.0-liter boxer unit capable to produce 197 horsepower and 205 Nm of torque. The Subaru engine transfers all the power to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission, therefore, we talk about a truly sports car. Also, the Japanese company offers a six-speed automatic transmission but we really recommend the manual one if you want to get the best results on track.

Another important detail to mention is that the new GT 86 is the base for the Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S, the latter being designed to enter the North American market only.
