Here's Why 86 Is Toyota's Favorite Number
The number 86 reminds enthusiasts of the time when Toyota Corollas were rear-wheel drive, and fun to drive.
The Corolla name doesn't just refer to some of the most mundane commuter
cars on the planet—it was also applied to Toyota's most iconic
performance models built between 1983 and 1987. They were called AE86s, a
name that breaks down in Toyota-speak as follows: 4A engines (A), a
Corolla badge (E), fifth-generation bodies (8) and represented the sixth
variant of this family (6).
