This showed up on my front page and is crazy. My mother bought this exact spec, white GT-S hatch with blue interior and sunroof, new in 86. It had the strangest quirk which would unleash a very unpleasant rotten egg smell randomly on upshifts.
I currently have a 86 GT-S in the coupe & red interior, and I absolutely adore it! There is something considerably off when it comes to acceleration with mine, though, it may be the 4 speed auto, or something else.
great video! picking a 1986 GT-S this weekend for $500, running and driving! planning on restoring, and this video made me even more anxious to do so! :)))
Great video, very well reviewed. I have an ST182 GT-i and I love every bit of that car. 61'000 kilometres, Gen.II 3S-GE, 156HP, 186 N/m of torque. The second gen. motor has ACIS, a further developement of T-VIS, and the same mid range RPM fun. It's an unbelievably addictive car to drive. I've been owning her for a year and I still cannot get enough of it.
My dad had one of these it was auto though I learned how to drive on it and fell in love with Japanese cars after. Then I bought my first car a 1990 300zx NA lol
I was looking at one recently after seeing the pricing of 86’s going up and getting harder to find I finally gave up because of how overpriced they’ve become and how well documented they have been I found a at160 celica and decided to take a look haven’t found a lot of info of people working on them and it does have its benefits so I might just buy that over the 86 plus I do love me a good lift back
This video deserves more recognition, great editing, great voiceover, and you even know what you’re talking about lol

Can't recommend one of these enough, they're well deserving of all the attention. Definitely try and grab one before they get too out of hand
