In this month's issue of Top Gear magazine, we've apportioned a sizeable chunk to Japan's re-emergence; it's new dawn. And one of the chief catalysts is the Toyota GT 86.

Now that it's been properly revealed and all officially official, cast your mind back to how you first saw the finished model; a crude scan from a modifying catalogue.

To those who cooed in approval, Toyota has just revealed a pair of tuned GT 86s bound for this weekend's Tokyo Auto Salon; a two-day modifying exhibition. One is the Modellista version shown above, now official rather than in scanned-from-the-back-of-a-mag guise. Naturally, this is just a cosmetic affair, showcasing what you can do to your Toyota. There are new front, side and rear skirts, as you can see. Also, the wheels are gold. Gold.
