With so many Japanese cars having two-digit numerical components to their chassis codes, it’s a wonder only the Toyota AE86 (mid 80s Corolla) owners celebrate the appropriate day. Every year on 8/6, AE86 owners from around the world get all riled up, the blogs post photos of famous or interesting AE86’s, and many enthusiasts get together at meets like the one Rick Cunanan of SlideYourRide throws every year.
This year the meet was at One Toyota of Oakland, and many of the big names in the Bay Area Corolla community came out to show off their cars. There were stock 86’s, clean daily 86’s, drift prepped 86’s, 86’s with unusual motor swaps, and pretty good turnout of older generation Corollas and some other models of Toyota as well. I even brought my BF28 Camry.
