Toyota GT 86 Spotted in Dubai

In Dubai, if you’re working in oil, you get a Range Rover, a Porsche Cayenne or something along those lines. if your a sheikh, you have to have the latest Ferrari and Mercedes G-Class, plus maybe a rare exotic. But what if you’re earning average wage and want a stand-out car?
The popular solution in the land of almost free petrol is of course a muscle car, like the Chevy Camaro. But for AED 99,000 you can also get a brand new sports coupe from Toyota, the new GT 86. It really is a fun little car to drive, and we found that it’s not something you’ll get bored with in a hurry.

It's got a 200 horsepower 2.0-liter boxer four-cylinder, which sound really sweet even though it can't keep up with turbo hothatches.

Youtuber Patrick3331 filmed this example in an underground parking lot in Dubai. It’s pearl white and looks quite good, even though the boringly simple interior will let some people down.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
