James/Jamiee & Yuni Fertitta's Toyota SPRINTER TRUENO GT-APEX (AE86) First Generation 2door Release Ver.
It's finally here, after I don't know how many hours I spent crafting it, and a good year of work. My own coupe/2door. I've wanted this shit since I first started assetto, but back in that time only a kouki version existed (late 2018-2019), and it was also the old tw model. But this is 2023 (now 2024) (and now 2025), the standards are much higher than back then and so I cobbled this together with what resources I could find. There is some scuff, but it's satisfying enough that I won't be losing any sleep or getting irritated about it. This is the 86 I'd like to actually own someday, and I'm trying to realistically base it as much as possible. This car is subject to constant updates, like with a real car- you never truly stop working on it.
