TRD Launches New Performance Line Accessories for Toyota 86 at Tokyo Auto Salon

|

The Toyota 86 (along with its Scion and Subaru brethren) is just one of those cars that you know beforehand will draw massive attention from the aftermarket industry as buyers will surely want to upgrade the coupe's appearance and looks.

At this week's 2012 Tokyo Auto Salon, TRD (Toyota Racing Development) presented a first batch of performance and styling goods for the 86 sports coupe.

Toyota's in-house tuning division has developed a new aero package with side skirts, a full width front spoiler, a rear apron that includes a diffuser and a boot lid spoiler that go together with a bespoke fuel cap cover and 18-inch black alloy wheels.

Inside, TRD's offerings include body hugging bucket seats, a push start button, a shift knob, and what the company describes as a "Sports Meter Link System" with readings for water temperature, oil temperature and oil pressure.

Key handling features added to TRD's Performance Line 86 include a reworked and fully adjustable suspension with new front and rear anti-roll bars, a carbon front strut, additional cross-bracing and a stabilizer set, plus a sports brake kit with 6-piston calipers up front and 4-piston at the back and a high-response, four-tailpipe exhaust system.

Still just an underpowered Z car wannabe.

Stick an STI motor in it and then you got something.

I think it actually looks a better car with the add-ons, for some reason I never liked it just looked to plain and featureless

But but... then wouldn't it be a overpowered Z car wannabe after that? Give me a break. How many cars can one say look like other cars? Tons. Give it a rest.

I assume you have driven the car already

I assume you work in the pricing department for Scion.

No, just look at a Scion build and price....do I have to explain everything?

They should give it a whole rear (faux) defuser. It looks weird with that new rear bumper.

 I don't see why everyone is complaining about this particular model being overpriced. ALL new automobiles are overpriced. This is quite clearly a model that is reserved for enthusiasts, and when you enter that market, pretty much everything is priced in regards to the value of the parts.
