| You wouldn't expect a budget sports car like the Toyota GT 86 Turbo to go into a battle against an established supercar like the McLaren MP4-12C, but here it is. The Toyota GT 86 Turbo is powered by the same 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder engine as the regular GT86, but thanks to turbo technology, it develops 250 hp at 6,500 rpm and 250 lb-ft of torque at 4,500 rpm. Toyota's turbocharged GT 86 comes with a 6-speed automatic transmission and it weighs 1,220 kg. Toyota's official specifications say that the GT86 Turbo is able to accelerate from zero to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 5.5 seconds and that it can reach a top speed of 150 mph. You can have a GT 86 turbo for as little as 35,000 GBP. There is also a racing version of the GT 86 Turbo, which has an output of 335 bhp at 7,000 rpm and 300 lb-ft of torque. With the extra power, the racing version of the GT 86 turbo is able to get from nought to 62 mpg (100 km/h) in just 4 seconds and to hit a maximum speed of 60 mph. In comparison the McLaren MP4-12C develops 625 PS from a 3.8-liter V8 twin turbocharged engine and it requires just 3.1 seconds to hit 62 mph (100 km/h). | |||||||
