The AE86 is a very very famous tuner but I am not sure how well it'll go without mods. I usually am interested in stock specs of cars as I believe that's the REAL performance potential of the car. Mods can make a Corolla faster than an EVO!

hey guys...aint this AE86 like 20 years old?
How many are there on the streets here anyway? I cant recall seeing any so far while driving in UAE.

Other than the Celica-ish hatchback look, whats so great about this? Aint it just a 1.6 liter 4 cylinder corolla?

I just have no idea why these tuning fan-boys have the hots for such a puny old Corolla. Maybe because it was featured in that Japanese drifting movie, 'Initial-D'.

WSF! tell us why you love the AE86? Is it the cult-factor (racing movies and Need For Speed 2) or is there more to it?

"Aw.. do i have 2 love it cuz it was featured in Initial D or NFSU2"..
I used 2 c a 3dr red corolla hatchback dat used pass several times @ al mulla plaza area a year ago... I loved it with those popup hedlites n it was loud!! I did some research found out abt this AE86 n discovered that it is a "RWD" n was meant 4 "performance purposes"... i just had a crush on that ride... LOL
