Official specs of Toyota FT-86 finally revealed!




Those are the official specs of the FT-86, leaked of course but coming from some official training material. So, after seeing the actual car and now knowing what we should expect in terms of performance, the target of 200 PS has been achieved and I think the FT-86 should be a really fun-to-drive car!
