CONDITION Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: some minor stone chipping to paintwork, minor signs of rust on a rear wheel arch, and small scratches on exterior plastics. Inside, only modest wear and one minor crack on the dashboard. The seller is not aware of any mechanical or electrical faults. The most recent technical inspection was conducted in June 2022. The seller states that the last maintenance was undertaken in early 2023 by V-Spec Performance in Blackburn, Victoria, which was a comprehensive service. During the seller’s ownership, they have upgraded the suspension to Shockworks coilovers and fitted brand new TRD coil plugs and ignition coil. This is a great opportunity to own a desirable late-model AE86, which are increasingly hard to find in largely original condition. With its spirited performance and rewarding handling, it would make for a highly engaging weekend toy or a smart addition to any JDM collection.
