40 Used Toyota GT86 cars for sale

The Toyota GT86 Club Series Blue Edition became the second model to join Toyota's Club Series, a line-up of cars that celebrates the motorsport history of the Japanese carmaker. It powers the same engine as all other versions of the GT86, but it comes with an exclusive exterior finish and excellent sports equipment, including 17-inch black alloy wheels and red brake callipers.

The GT86 hatchback is not the most powerful car in its category. Even its coupe rivals get a more powerful powertrain than the GT86's 197 bhp 2.0-litre engine. However, the rear-wheel-drive system of Toyota offers unrivalled responsiveness to keep drivers at the centre of the action. The feedback is good, and the engine spices things up with its unique deep sound.

Unexpectedly, the GT86 is comfortable, especially for a sports car. Due to its low weight, it does not require a stiff suspension. It feels slightly firm but superbly absorbs bumps on the road. Drivers also get a sports bucket seat with back support, making the sports car comfortable, even for long rides. However, the engine noises get louder as you pick up more speed, and wind noise is not as low as some of its rivals.

The door bins are relatively deep on the GT76, especially compared to what you get in most cars in the same category. The glovebox is also just as sufficient. In terms of luggage space, the GT86's 237-litre boot isn't as practical as other models in its segment, such as the 305 litres found in the Audi TT. The driver and front passengers have plenty of legroom for long and comfortable journeys. However, the rear seats feel a bit cramped but are still suitable for kids or smaller passengers.

Since the BRZ and GT86 are sister models, the Subaru BRZ is the best alternative if you're in the market for a sporty hatchback. Both offer a similar driving experience, including performance, handling and fuel efficiency. The GT86 will be easier to find in the used car market than the Subaru, plus Toyotas are known to hold their value. However, the Subaru BRZ is a little more stylish and offers a slightly more refined suspension.

Some of the standard safety features you can expect to get with the GT86 include 7 airbags, electronic stability control, traction control and impressive braking power. The GT also has Isofix child-seat mounting points in the rear for little ones. Although the GT86 has never undergone a Euro NCAP safety test, the safety of a Toyota isn't usually problematic due to its solid reputation.
