Video: Chris Harris drives the new Toyota GT-86

One of the most anticipated cars of 2012 is Toyota’s new rear wheel drive entry level sports car with way too many names: GT-86, FT-86, and FR-S. Test car specialist, Chris Harris, has traveled to Spain to get the most out of a short session with the car. This video is about 10 minutes long and shows off what one can do behind the wheel of one of the most talked about sports cars of the year.

As a reminder, the GT 86 is powered by a 2.0-liter naturally-aspirated flat-four engine that delivers a total of 200 HP at 7000 rpm and maximum torque of 151 lb-ft at 6600 rpm. The engine is mated to either a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission. The only problem is that we don’t have an official confirmation of the car’s performance numbers just yet.
