Car Profiles - Toyota 86

TOYOTA 86

The T badge is boring no more, especially that the word fun had come back to the brand. Good looks and side sliding enjoyment are standard. Limited practicality is a demerit but who cares?

The Good: A driver's delight
The Bad: Tight back seat

Price Range: P1,636,000-P1,946,000
