STORY

The AE86 was built from 1983 to 1987 as the rear-drive Corolla Levin, with fixed headlights, and the Sprinter Trueno, with pop-up lamps. Both used the 1.6 litre twin-cam 4A-GE. The Japanese version was rated 130 PS gross (JIS), the European version about 124 PS (DIN net) and the North American 4A-GEC 112 hp (SAE net). Keiichi Tsuchiya helped make drifting known with the car, and the manga Initial D, which began in 1995, put the Trueno at its centre. Toyota's 2012 86 coupe took its name from it.
