As previously mentioned in this thread. Maintenance wise is around the same as any other NA road cars.
Performance wise, I guess its bread and butter stuff, internet is the king of information.
Handling... Oh you dont know this car? Haha..Just saying.

Sure why not
Got 6 speed automatic that's very accommodating to people who can't handle the clutch pedal.

In fact we have a few female owners in our group and my gf have driven my gt86 without any major issue

I can't recall I did any sliding u turns, so shouldn't be me tongue.gif

Recond is a hit or miss.
My car clutch housing/manual transmission condemned in 2 months ownership, but that's due to car high mileage and me as an owner still continuing to drive the car despite loud clutch bearing whine/screeches/noise etc

Thanks for the prompt response.

Maintenance wise, do you send your car to official Toyota SC or outside specialist?

Things to consider -
1) ECU light, if reappear needs over haul
2) Consider getting an AP agent to choose own car? - Didnt know this is possible.

What else to look out for? What are the charges recond car comes with? Can I register my own new plate? Warranty?
From the thread, I read that service and maintenance is pretty standard being a NA car.
I would assume this means it will be same as most Japanese cars (Toyota, Honda, Nissan), yet I would expect higher cost in parts to set expectation correctly.
Additionally. Toms Vision Sunway is one of the specialized workshop for the car. Any other references?

Lastly, any difference in 2013 / 2014? 2017 i know is facelift.
Is the car speed limited at 180 km/h? can easily disable?

Thank you very much!

1) if appear, find out what error code. may not need overhaul.
2) yes possible. but very troublesome and price higher and often very expensive.

market price, no additional charges as its supposedly included.
find out from your recond dealer, they wary dealer to dealer.

Word of advise: AVOID Vision motorsports and any stock obtained from them.
i lazy explain, you'll find out easily if you dig hard enough.

yes you can register your own plate.
In Malaysia, unreg/recond is basically a new car.
imported used car, newly register in malaysia (hence you can use new registration/transfer your own plate)

Warranty can assume none, some do have third party warranty under written by insurance such as Tune protect.
however claims have many limitation and for 86/brz, its basically insurance to cover half cut replacements.
eg: a claim max limit 10k, a brand new manual 6 speed gear box is around 16-18k.
so you only get half cut unless you can negotiate to top off the balance uncovered amount. (i dont think it works that way)

its still a full fledged sports car, anything that breaks, you're kinda fucked.
2 door rare AF sports coupe at that.
feels awesome when you call up Toyota (for my case, at Melaka) and they don't know what's a 86.

facelift = cosmetic and for manual, 5 hp and final drive adjustment.
all of the items from facelift you can get aftermarket anyways, not critical to have.

Japan is limited to 180, soft cut where your throttle starts to close until a max of 191-194km/h on meter depending on auto/manual.
gps is around 182-184km/h

Nope but from their thread in mudah, seems cheaper. Heard that they will reduce import tax. Should affect the recond cars price maybe?

Can't seem to find their bad reputation online tho. Hope someone can tell their past experience dealing with them. 2013 Manual seems to drop to 120k now.
