2012 Toyota GT86
2017 Toyota GT86
Introduction to the Toyota GT86:
In 2012, Toyota gave petrolheads a surprise by launching that Toyota GT86 which was an awesome car. The first Toyota GT86 is very cheap as it only cost SGD 148,000 for the manual transmission and SGD 151,000 for the automatic version.
Difference between the exterior of the 2012 Toyota GT86 and the 2017 Toyota GT86:
As you can see in the pictures above, both of the cars look really sporty as they have different kinds of designs. At the exterior of the new 2017 Toyota GT86, you get a sportier looking front as it now has a bumper that has 2 sharp ends in the middle which gives the new 2017 Toyota GT86 a brand new sportier look than the previous 2012 Toyota GT86. Unfortunetly, you do not have fog lamps on the new 2017 Toyota GT86 as you get a sportier look at the front of the car without the fog lights and I think that you would not need fog lights to drive around in any country. Unlike the previous Toyota GT86, the 2017 Toyota GT86 does not have the "86" batch at the side fake scoops. Now for the new Toyota GT86, you will get better grills at the front as it has a very nice plastic part at the top o the grill which you get on the old 2012 Toyota GT86. In my opinion, the black plastic part looks better on the new Toyota GT86. Now, the new 2017 Toyota does not get a rear spoiler as the old 2012 Toyota GT86 did as Toyota wants to take all the styling to the front of the car than the back of the car.

The 2017 Toyota GT86 gets a total new steering wheel as it now has buttons on it which controls the multi-media touch screen system.
The rest of the features of the car is pretty much the same with the 2012 Toyota GT86. You will get a total leather leather wrapped steering wheel with a plastic "86" logo on 2012 Toyota GT86 while you will get a normal chrome Toyota logo on the new 2017 Toyota GT86 which looks more expensive in a sports car. It also has some aluminium trim on the steering wheel which looks better on the new 2017 Toyota GT86.
However, this car would not be good for you if you do like to fetch your friends from school every day as if they sit at the back seats, they will feel uncomfortable as they will have their heads crouching to their knees.

The 2017 Toyota GT86 now gets a new 2.0L Subaru Boxer engine with an increase of bhp which means that you will get more power as you get 205bhp and 157 Ib-ft under the bonnet. while for the old 2012 Toyota GT86, you will get a 197bhp and 151Ib-ft. The new Toyota GT86 may not be as fast as the Toyota GT86 HKS but it can be fun car to drive and it can also be your daily driver.
