Thanks to facebook.com/Toyota86nz we bring you a sneak peek at work in progress to build the first New Zealand TRD Toyota 86 from Palmerston North (main city of the Manawatu-Wanganui region of the North Island of New Zealand). Lots of images courtesy facebook.com/Toyota86nz.
Only 20 TRD special editions will be built as part of the initial production run. These will be built to order, based on firm customer requests. Supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity, each TRD created is uniquely numbered, and rare as hen’s teeth.
In New Zealand, the new Toyota 86 comes in four models: 86, GT86, GT86 (with Aero Kit) and TRD special edition. The cars are available in following colours: Pegasus White, Molten Silver, Tornado Grey, Midnight Black, Galaxy Blue, Lightning Red and Burnt Orange.

Looking at the popularity of the other 86/BRZ models we hope to see the long awaited TRD make it’s debut in Australia in 2013. See what our members think about this news in this thread.
As always keep checking out our front page for latest developments on the Australian Toyota 86 / Subaru BRZ as well as key news from abroad as we strive to bring it to you first.
