Following the legacy of Toyota’s lightweight, driver-focused sports cars, the GR86 represents the next evolution of the much-loved 86 platform. Developed with a clear emphasis on balance, engagement, and driver involvement, the ZN8 generation refines the formula with increased power, improved chassis rigidity, and sharper styling—remaining faithful to the spirit of a pure rear-wheel-drive sports coupe.

This particular example is a 2022 Toyota ZN8 GR86 RZ, presented in the striking shade of Solar Red. The vivid finish accentuates the car’s compact proportions and sculpted lines, while a selection of well-considered upgrades gives it a more purposeful stance that complements the GR86’s inherently sporty design.

Under the bonnet sits Toyota’s 2.4-litre naturally aspirated flat-four engine, paired with the highly sought-after 6-speed manual transmission. The larger displacement engine delivers stronger mid-range torque and improved responsiveness, preserving the analogue driving experience that has defined the platform since its inception.

Enhancing its driving dynamics and visual presence, this example is fitted with a suite of performance upgrades including HKS adjustable suspension, a Blitz tower bar, and RAYS TE37 17-inch wheels. Aerodynamic additions such as the GR Aero kit, GR muffler, and a Result Japan carbon fibre rear wing further reinforce its motorsport-inspired character.

Inside, the driver-focused cabin is equipped with a genuine navigation system with reverse camera, alongside modern conveniences such as LED headlights and cruise control. As one of the few remaining naturally aspirated, manual rear-wheel-drive sports coupes in today’s market, the GR86 continues to embody the essence of accessible, enthusiast-oriented driving.
