86 Videos

I thought it'd be good to get a few 86 videos going so people can have a look at it in action.
 
To kick things off - a review on Jalopnik, driving a spanking new 86 from Barcelona to Budapest (article also has a link to an awesome NSX vid... I know it's not a toyota but a beautiful car nonetheless)...


 

cheers

    ^Best video/review I've seen on it so far. Photography was top-notch too - great find!

    That is one of the best auto review vids I've ever seen!

    There is an extensive build thread for my car here: http://www.mr2australia.com/mr2play/tm.aspx?m=18316

    Nice video!
    Really makes it sound like a small supercharger would make it perfect.
    But then its going to go up to a higher price range.

    Carless again :(

    Yeah the guy seems really straightforward about the car, and makes sure the focus stays on the car rather than himself (I've noticed the Top Gear guys recently seem to lose focus of the importance of the cars they're testing sometimes...)
     
    Speaking of superchargers...

     
    As an aside, nissky, do you drive the MR2 on the M5 in the morning/afternoon on weekdays? Your car in your sig looks familiar, I'm sure I've seen it on the M5 car park occasionally in the morning, as I crawl towards Mascot...

    A bit old but good. Chris Harris is a dude.

    What we're dealing with here is a complete lack of respect for the law.-"Sheriff Buford T. Justice."
    Do you know the 1st rule of Italian driving?
