  • AE86 // LEGACY
    From humble beginnings, the Toyota Corolla GT Coupe (AE86) has become one of the most sought after 1980s performance cars.
    Motorsport success and popular culture is a path to global cult status that few cars have trodden, and though the AE86 was a masterclass in understated design, what was beneath the surface was a concept last seen in the 1960s when the Mk1 Escort took the rally world by storm.
    Once described as Toyota’s evolution of the Ford Escort RS1600, the AE86 Corolla invented a whole new genre of motorsport, and became the star of a cult cartoon, TV and film series, Initial-D.
    Get under the skin of this legendary car with the latest classic car story from Paul Woodford’s Car Films channel.
    This is the unofficial story, of the Toyota Corolla that changed the world.

    📼 Written, filmed, presented and produced on iPhone 11 and GoPro Hero 7 by Paul Woodford.

    It's not only the engine and the suspension but it is also the weight distribution. This was the key factor why Keichi Tsuchiya likes this car's light weight, balanced weight and old school rear wheel drive.

    I saw many around town where I grew up back in the early 90s. I didn't pay attention much until I bought a Option 2 VHS tape, it was in Japanese, and it was about building and drifting them. I was hook and bought 3 GT-S at $500 each. It wasn't a beautiful car or anything special. I went on and drive many better and faster cars: Supras, Evo, STI, MR2 turbo. But strangely they are fast but not as fun as the Corolla GT-S. My friend has one and helping him working on it and hanging out in the weekend. It's bring people together. It's also a time machine to my younger days. I try to drive it once a week if I'm not to busy.

    I really love the AE86 and I like that you mostly talked about the rally history of the car instead of focusing only on drifting is a breath of fresh air, also, the fact that this video was published on my birthday makes me like it even more!

      Nice bday gift!!! I had a funny story with my ae86 I bought it the night of August 5th so I spent the next day washing and giving maintenance to the car and that day I found out it was the hachi day (August 6th) so it was something beautiful for me as I spent the last year without a car cuz mine was stolen, so it felt like a gift from the universe to finally get my dream car in that precise moment while in the whole world people were celebrating this car’s legacy!!! It was like a party day with my kids that day they really love the car and it’s eyes!!! Mine its a 1985 AE86 Sprinter Trueno Coupé 🥰

    Excellent video on this legend, definitely the video I'll be sending to people when the ignorantly say this car is only famous because Initial D, or that the car is only expensive because of the tofu tax. So much more to this car that is such readily available information, but people want to say "£30k for a 40 year old corolla huh huh" to put it down.

    I had an AE86 GT-S TC-16. The handling was phenomenal. I’ve never driven any car since that had steering response anywhere close to it. The low end torque was dismal which I hated, but the handling made up for it. It was a great first car and I had it for 12 years and 160K miles. I wonder if mine is still on he road somewhere.

    I would say the appeal of the AE86 and well all small engined (2L and below) Japanese cars in Ireland is less to do with the world off rallying and more to do with Irish motor taxation and crazy insurance which meant driving anything with an engine bigger than a 2l was prohibitively expensive. Back in the 90s and early 2000s the Irish car scene was mostly imprezas, evos and altezzas for those who could afford to insure them and starlets, mirages ect for those who couldn't

      @@maxrocatansky5516 the rally thing runs deep in Ireland north and south, yes in South taxation and insurance issues have made owning performance classics and performance cars in general very expensive but the primary reason AE86 is such a cult car here just like the mk2 escorts etc is the rally history (and the sideways rwd culture here) . My friend owned a few in the early 90s and tbh they could hold their own with most hot hatches of the period. Fantastic little cars that had plenty of grip in the dry😎👌
