Bumped into one of my Dad's old friends today, he'd taken his Toyota Corolla T Sport Compressor in for an MOT and came out with this, came with a full Miltek exhaust system as well so sounds nice

I'd love to take one of these for a spin, I know they are not blessed with power or torque they perhaps deserve but they are good looking cars and have always stood out to me since they first sold them in the UK.

The one in the pic has an extra body kit, spoiler and wheels, looks lovely.

There is loads of options available for tuning out there and the engine is to most of our tastes too.

Definitely worth driving one. They are good fun.

A guy I work with swapped the headers on his and now it burbles beautifully.

I'd have one of I didn't need to ferry kids about.

It's a GT86 Aero, no performance upgrades, just the body kit and 18" wheels, the exhaust was fitted by the dealer. All it needs is a set of Subaru badges.
