This is a scale replica model kit of the GAZOO Racing TRD (Toyota Racing Development) GT86. The model accurately captures the dynamic form of the vehicle complete with mudflaps and twin exhaust. Included are decals to recreate the red and black livery, plus sponsor markings. The horizontally opposed 4-cylinder engine is depicted realistically. Interior features separate parts recreating roll cage, bucket seats and parking brake. Comes with metal transfers to recreate mirror surfaces and emblems.
The TRD 86 is a car based on the Toyota 86 and optioned out by TRD, Toyota's in-house tuning shop. This GAZOO Racing version of the car was run in the Japanese TRD Rally Challenge series of events, and is perhaps most notable for being driven by Toyota motor company president Akio Toyoda as his alter-ego "Morizo." He proved to be more than just a name, picking up two wins in the 5-race series on his way to the Championship for his class.
