2020 Toyota 86 TRD Handling Package Review: A Track Day Bargain

Описание: Toyota has continually tinkered with the 86 sports car since it debuted in 2013 as the Scion FR-S, gently improving on the basic sports car formula with its lightweight, rear-wheel drive, and manual transmission setup.
In 2019, Toyota debuted the Toyota 86 TRD Edition, which, at $32,420, was the most expensive version of the 86 sports car ever, with bespoke paint, a body kit, TRD 18-inch wheels, Sachs dampers with stiffer springs, different sway bars, and a big brake kit.
Now, for 2020, Toyota has released the 86 TRD Handling Package, which takes all of the sporting hardware from the previous TRD model, but skips the fancy paint, the body kit and bling wheels. It's an all-function package, that adds just $2,320 to the base price of the Toyota 86. Is it worth it? Well, let's hit the track, compare it against the base 86, and find out.
