This document summarizes a review of the new Toyota 86 Coupe published in the June 30, 2012 edition of New City Magazine. In 3 sentences: The review provides an overview of the Toyota 86 Coupe, a new affordable sports car developed jointly by Toyota and Subaru, noting it is aimed at young drivers but has lackluster engine performance. While critiquing the car's fit and finish as inferior to Toyota's reputation for quality, the review predicts the car has potential with a future turbocharged version. The author concludes by saying he will look forward to reviewing an updated model that may address current issues.

The people at Toyota have allied with their rivals Subaru to create the new affordable Toyota 86 Coupe. The
issues that you would have with two companies joining forces, are the same when you mate two dog breeds.

You get a mutt.
Now I’m not going to say that this car is far from good, it just depends who the audience is. I’m happy to say this

The difference between a Louis Vuitton bag and a Zara bag is one thing… quality! Though they may look the
same, the fit and finish is far from similar. The same goes with the Toyota, thought to be a symbol of quality, this
car is fit and finished like a South Korean car manufacturer on strike. Simply simple and cheap-ish.
Again not to say it’s a bad thing, it all goes in making this car affordable to the masses. It’s not as great as the
Supra and its definitely not as good as good as the iconic original Toyota 86.

2. At 147kW and 205Nm of pulling power, the engine is not exactly sporty… but you and I know that there is a ARCHIVES
turbo charger in this cars future, and I am patiently waiting to write another review and I’m sure it’ll be better
than this Toyota 86 Coupe Review. (JY)

I had high hopes for this car, based on just its looks alone. Sporty looking for sure– and I
expected Toyota quality to go along with that styling. Sounds like it may be best to wait a
while on this and see if the next incarnation is better.

Hi Sammie, looks can be deceiving… Anyway, it would be wiser to wait a while as you say.
I don’t think it’s wise to buy a “brand new” car from the showroom. when you can buy it a
year later second hand for 20% less!
