AE86 Original 20,000 Mile Car UPDATE!

Postby Caccomando » Thu Dec 03, 2015 5:53 pm

Hey everyone,
Ok so long stort short if you havnt seen this car or this post yet. Last year I got my hands on a 1 owner AE86 hatchback with 20k original miles. You may have seen me over the past months selling stuff and buying up stuff. I have horded alot of OEM parts from Europe, Japan, Australia and locally here in the U.S. I have bought and sold with alot of very cool people, thanks to anyone whos helped. Im on Instagram as "coolcorolla" look me up.
My car is in the shop and has been since ive got it as im refeshing the exterior. Once I get the car back I will be posting more progress and the journey.
The day before she went in!

(UPDATE) So I cant really do much with my stockpile of parts since I dont have the car at the moment but heres a little teaser of one the things to come. :P

SPRING CANT COME SOON ENOUGH!

Wow that's a crazy thing to find. Almost like that other guy who bought theirs and drove it about 10km to his garage and never took it out again. :P

Looking forward to hear the story! Are you planning on driving it?

Lucky. 20k miles!? I hope you're refreshing, etc. the oem bumpers and not throwing on jdm bs, or worse: aftermarket.

i only ask because i think i saw his car on ebay a month or two ago, you got it for a nice price!

i have a story to share about a low mileage 86, when i was first getting into cars and ae86 about two years ago i found a 5k original miles white manual sr5 coupe for sale. that's right 5k miles! but even more astounding that it wasn't even the original owner who had it, some guy bought it and put 3k miles on it that year, so it originally had only 2k in 2013 or so. and he only wanted $5,000 for it. iv'e always regretted not getting it.

Yeah, it looks and sounds like the ebay car, I remember the auction. Clean car, just needed cosmetic help, if it is the same car.

Buddy of mine found an sr5 this year in a garage with 24k miles.

I'm guessing there are now 6, this clean and such low mileage.

I remember seeing one someone drove off the lot then put it on stands and only changes the fluids. Anyone know the link to it or remember who's car it was?

http://jalopnik.com/5828381/this-is-what-a-brand-new-25-year-old-ae86-toyota-corolla-looks-like/ this maybe?

id be willing to bet there are atleast 150 ae86s in a 10/10 condition not 5, how many ae86s were even made like 300,000?

Nope not the one. This is the one that kept coming up when I was trying to find it again. The one I remember was a red hatch

Haha, my bad. Should of stated I was asking Caccomando about the story of the AE86; however, knowing what happened to the one on stands would be cool too.
