On the 10th of August 2013, Toyota Australia and the NSW 86/BRZ Club collaborated to host Australia’s largest gathering of Toyota 86’s in celebration of the 1st anniversary of the car going on sale in Australia, with Toyota 86 Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada being present to welcome over 500 fans and owners.
Official attendance was 272 cars including 234 examples of the Toyota 86, which Tada-san said was a record number outside Japan for the one-year-old nameplate. A further 27 owners brought their AE86 – the spiritual predecessor of the modern car – while 11 others brought their Subaru BRZ.
