View full auction inspection pictures and details for this Sprinter. This classic 1986 Toyota Sprinter AE86 GT APEX 3 door coupe was inspected for a client at USS Tokyo auction on 22 September 2016. This model became famous in Japan and then the rest of the world thanks to being featured in the Initial D series of Japanese manga and anime, then in Gran Turismo and other car racing video games. See AE86 Wiki for more details about the Toyota Sprinter AE86. This has led to increasing demand for the cleanest and most genuine examples, and therefore increasing prices which are discussed more at AE86 Prices on the Rise. This example was in very nice and original condition other than some tasteful and minor modifications including Watanabe 14 inch alloy wheels, TRD sports bucket seats, Nardi steering wheel, aftermarket suspension front and rear (springs), LSD, aftermarket muffler with catalytic convertor, TRD shift kit, carbon-fibre / aluminum strut-tower bar, aftermarket spark plug cables, plus some TRD parts. While it may not have been fully original, all the paint looked very good, and normal rust problem areas were all rust free. Just minor surface rust underneath which is expected for age. Odometer was showing 66,993 km and while there was nothing obvious to suggest this was not genuine (given how clean it was overall), we always suggest the stated kms are to be used as a guide only on cars of this age and to judge each on how it presents on auction day. It was eligible for import to Australia under the existing 1988 and older rule. It sold for 2,430,000 Yen FOB which would have been approx. $38,000 landed in Australia at the time (at 76.5 Yen to the dollar, plus approx. $1,000 allowance for compliance, plus tyres if required and on road costs), and was the highest price we had seen paid for an AE86 to date. Please note that this vehicle is an EXAMPLE only and is not available for sale. It is intended to provide a good indication of import prices at the date listed. We can source for import another similar 1986 Toyota Sprinter AE86 GT APEX to order. To see what's available and research prices you can browse past and upcoming Japanese auction vehicles of any model and add yourself to our free email auction alerts trial.
