TOYOTA
GT86 BLANCO
Toyota
has topped off its revised GT86 range with a new special edition model, the
GT86 Blanco, a car that delivers all of the coupe's acclaimed handling and
performance plus an extra dash of one-off style.
True
to its name, the new Blanco is finished in GT White Pearl pearlescent paint
with contrasting sports decals in a combination of red and grey. A stripe decal
runs up from the nose and across the bonnet and roof, matched by a GT86
twin-stripe along the sills. The front lip and rear diffuser are edged in red
and red and grey flashes adorn the door mirrors.
The
dedicated 18-inch alloys have a slim 10-spoke design, finished in Anthracite
and embossed with the GT86 name. In the cabin the sports seats have full
leather upholstery and, for the front seats, heaters. Each car features its own
numbered plaque on the centre console, recording its place in the special
edition production run.
Customers
can add to their car's specification with a nine-speaker JBL sound system and
the Toyota Touch and Go touchscreen-controlled multimedia and navigation
package.
The
look may be different, but there is no change to the supreme balance and
rewarding handling that continue to earn the 2+2 coupe critical plaudits. The
car's low centre of gravity and unique combination of a compact, naturally
aspirated, front-mounted 2.0-litre boxer engine with rear-wheel drive deliver
classic sports car performance, at an affordable price.
The
new Blanco joins the recently revised range alongside the GT86 Primo, GT86 and
GT86 Aero. It is on sale from 1 July, 2015, priced £28,500, with first
deliveries to customers from 1 August, 2015.
