The Toyota GR86, launched for the 2022 model year, is the second generation of the celebrated rear-wheel-drive sports coupe co-developed with Subaru. Its biggest update is the new 2.4-liter FA24 flat-four engine, which produces 228 horsepower and, more importantly, eliminates the noticeable torque dip of the previous 2.0-liter engine. This change transformed the car's driving experience, making it feel more responsive and capable.
Enthusiasts value the GR86 for its pure, analog driving dynamics in an increasingly digital automotive world. It’s a lightweight, well-balanced, and affordable package that prioritizes driver engagement above all else. Its status as one of the last naturally aspirated, manual-transmission sports cars available new makes it a strong candidate for future classic status, especially limited-run models like the TRUENO Edition.
Current market data shows that the GR86 has experienced very little depreciation since its launch, with the average sale price of $30,073 sitting close to its original MSRP. The market is active, with values reflecting mileage, condition, and trim level. These cars are being driven and enjoyed, but their strong value retention points to a healthy demand that should continue.
Buying Tips
- Pay close attention to the engine's health, as some early FA24 engines have reported oil pressure issues during hard track use, specifically in right-hand corners.
- Inspect carefully for aftermarket modifications. While common, the quality of installation can vary greatly, and a stock example is often a safer bet.
- Decide between the base and Premium trim. The Premium adds 18-inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires, heated Alcantara seats, and an 8-speaker audio system.
- Always get a pre-purchase inspection to check for hidden accident damage, a common risk for a car designed to be driven hard.
