The Tamiya 1/24 representation of the Toyota 86 captures the car's light chassis and rear-wheel-drive balance that made the real car popular. The full-size Toyota 86, born from a Toyota and Subaru partnership, uses a 2.0-liter flat-4 with D-4S direct injection and this kit mirrors the engine layout and proportions faithfully.
This kit gives an absorbing build process, measuring 177mm long by 84mm wide when finished. The opening hood reveals a well-modelled flat-4 engine, and the front wheels are steerable for realistic poses. Metal transfers are supplied for mirrors and badges, and metal-plated light parts plus window masks help achieve a clean, show-ready result.
Tamiya suggests colours to match the official Toyota 86 palette, including the limited TS Metallic Orange spray. Other factory shades such as Sterling Silver Metallic and Crystal Black Silica are easy to reproduce with their paints, giving scope for faithful or customised liveries.
