This is not a sports car. This is a transformation. This is not a vehicle. It is an enchantment, and a bewitching one.
The forecast called for rain all week. I couldn't have been more excited.
This was not a car I was driving, exactly. This Toyota GR86 was an opportunity, or maybe better framed as some kind of lens. I saw things through it.What was always a desolate mall I drove past became suddenly inviting. Maybe there was a big back parking lot. Maybe it was empty. Maybe you couldn't see it from the road.
But are these real qualities? Am I imagining them, projecting them? Is this a sports car or just a sporty coupe that looks like one? Is there really gold in them thar hills?After all, this isn't really the most powerful car. You get 228 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque, this 2.4-liter FA24 engine a big step up from the 2.0-liter FA20 in older 86s, with a healthier punch in the middle of the rev range.
