The Toyota 86 is one of my favorite cars. I reviewed the 86 GT early last year and loved it (that car had all sorts of TRD goodies installed). Upgrade a bit and you’ll have an 86 GT for $28,585. The GT Black costs exactly the same as the GT, but adds visual flair: black side mirrors and black rear wing supports.

Only 86 units of the Toyota 86 Black Limited are available, and all 86 allocations are exclusive to the Japanese market, or at least most of them are.

Toyota’s myriad of special edition 86 models didn’t receive any engine upgrades and it’s no different with the 86 Black Limited Edition. Unfortunately, Toyota capped production of the new 86 Black Limited Edition well below the production total of its predecessor. Visually, the 86 Black Limited Edition is a home run, right down to the bronze wheels and red brake calipers.

Toyota decided to celebrate the AE86 Black Limited earlier this year when it introduced the 86 Black Limited Concept at the 2020 Tokyo Auto Salon in January.

Toyota has also tweaked the vehicle’s underbody to improve airflow and will optionally apply a bronze pinstripe as a visual nod to the AE86 Black Edition. Even more exclusive than its source of inspiration that was limited to 400 cars, the Toyota 86 Black Edition will be capped at only 86 cars, with production split evenly between manual and automatic models. With the AE86 Black Edition representing the model’s swan song, we can’t help but wonder whether it’s the same case with its modern-day equivalent.
