The Toyota AE86 has become part of folklore. Partly by the likes of folk like myself who remember hooning around in them when they were cheap,’ point and squirt’ second hand road warriors in the late 80’s/early 90’s….and partly because of their now ‘cult’ following due to the ‘Grand Tourisimo’ franchise with hoards of youngsters discovering these great handling cars ‘on-line’ (weird) but also through the offshoots of motorsport – classic rallying and the fine art of ‘drifting’.

Does the new Toyota GT86 (namesake of the AE86) follow in its footsteps?
