This Toyota 86 Sounds Absolutely Crazy
Ryan Tuerck and his team is delivering on the promise of a Ferrari-powered Toyota 86.
The project, dubbed GT-4586, fired up two days before the 2016 SEMA Show kicks off and those heading to Las Vegas this year will be able to see it up close and personal. The competition-only car sounds absolutely crazy with the Ferrari 458’s engine peeking out from the engine bay of the 86. As expected with a project this complex, there’s plenty of custom touches like having the exhaust come out of the front end so that it maintains the Ferrari 458 system’s length.

Expect to see and hear more about the insane GT-4586 project once it bows at the 2016 SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week. Tuerck plans on taking it to destroy some tires once it’s ready to go drifting.
