Thumbs-up,
catcalls, whistles, and snaps from cell phone cameras—this is what it’s like to
drive the all-new Toyota 86 on public roads. No other car that I’ve driven,
including other two-door sports cars twice or even quadruple the price gets and
attracts as much attention as this. And this is just the first hour of a
five-day love affair with Toyota’s dreamy coupe. Forget twisty mountain roads
or race tracks, we all know how the 86 can easily beat the best of them, so you
won’t hear any of that here. The mission here is to find out if the 86 is as
good as any Toyota as a daily driver.
