Rate this ‘NEO86’ 1-10❗️🔥

Pop-up headlights have finally returned from the dead, grafting 1980s soul onto a 2020s chassis. 

Result Japan has unveiled the “NEO86,” a comprehensive body kit that transforms the current Toyota GR86 into a distinct tribute to the legendary AE86 Sprinter Trueno.

Debuting at the 2026 Tokyo Auto Salon, this conversion drastically flattens the modern car’s nose to accommodate functional retractable lights and a boxy grille.

The build is finished in the iconic black-and-white “panda” color scheme made famous by Initial D, complete with wide fenders to blend the sharp 80s front end with the curvy modern rear hips.

It offers enthusiasts the unique opportunity to drive a car with the nostalgic face of a drift legend backed by the reliability and safety of a modern Boxer engine.

While the fusion of eras is technically impressive, the clash between the flat nose and muscular body lines has sparked intense debate in the tuning community.

Would you be brave enough to slice up a brand-new sports car to achieve this retro anime aesthetic?

What are your thoughts? 🤔💭
