How much does the 2023 Toyota GR86 cost?

Prices have held steady compared to this time last year, signaling a stable and predictable market for this model year.

There are 476 listings available, which gives you a modest amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

Is the 2023 Toyota GR86 a good car?

The 2023 Toyota GR86 is a strong fit if you want a focused sports coupe that prioritizes driving enjoyment over everyday practicality. It earns 3.88/5 from owners and 7.67/10 from experts.

The model scores 10/10 across Performance and Cost effectiveness.

Owners consistently praise its fun driving experience, nimble handling, and affordability, and many describe it as a great sports car for enthusiasts. The trade-offs are familiar for this kind of car: some owners want more power for the price, and the cabin can feel less polished than more mainstream alternatives.

That lines up with the overview, which frames the GR86 as a driver-focused coupe with sharp acceleration, straightforward controls, and blissful handling dynamics. It is best for you if you want a fun car rather than a detached daily driver.

With 30.5% of listings marked as good or great deals, the market gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2023 Toyota GR86 reliable?

The 2023 Toyota GR86 is built around a simple, enthusiast-focused formula, and owners often describe it as fun, dependable, and a car they can count on for an engaging drive. The expert evaluation also emphasizes its low center of gravity and well-weighted, direct steering, which support a durable-feeling, confidence-inspiring driving experience.

Toyota recommends premium fuel for the GR86, and the automatic version is the most efficient. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is less about complexity and more about finding a car that has been driven and maintained with care.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Toyota GR86?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 77.9% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully, because a sports coupe like this is more likely to have been driven hard than a typical commuter car. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection that focuses on tires, brakes, suspension wear, and signs of modification or track use. Pay close attention to cabin condition too, since this car’s appeal depends heavily on how well it has been kept.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Base trim gives you the essentials, including an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, dual-zone automatic climate control, and 17-inch alloy wheels. The Premium trim adds 18-inch wheels, Michelin Pilot Sport 4 all-season performance tires, a duckbill rear spoiler, adaptive front headlights, larger brakes, heated sport bucket seats, leather and Ultrasuede upholstery, and an upgraded eight-speaker stereo. The Premium trim is the better value if you want the fuller sports-car experience.
• Powertrain: The GR86 uses a 2.4-liter boxer four-cylinder engine with 228 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. You get a standard six-speed manual or an available six-speed automatic, and the limited-slip differential comes with either transmission.
• Safety package: Automatic-transmission models get pre-collision braking, adaptive cruise control, pre-collision throttle management, lane-departure warning, a lead-vehicle alert system, and high-beam assist. Premium trim adds blind-spot monitoring and adaptive headlights that turn with the steering wheel.
• Infotainment: You get an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus real knobs for volume and tuning. The system is intentionally simple, and the Premium trim adds an upgraded stereo.
• Fuel efficiency: The automatic returns 21 mpg city, 31 mpg highway, and 25 mpg combined. The manual returns 20 mpg city, 27 mpg highway, and 22 mpg combined. Toyota recommends premium fuel.

Which 2023 Toyota GR86 trim should I buy?

The 2023 Toyota GR86 is offered in 3 trim levels: Base, Premium, and 10th Anniversary Special Edition.

Here's the short version:

• Base: This is the value play if you want the GR86 experience at the lowest entry price. You still get the core formula: the 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, dual-zone climate control, a digital speedometer, and the driver-focused cabin layout. It is the trim to choose if you care most about the driving feel and least about extra comfort or appearance upgrades.
• Premium: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds the equipment that makes the GR86 feel more complete. You get 18-inch wheels, better tires, a duckbill rear spoiler, adaptive front headlights, larger brakes, heated sport seats, and the upgraded stereo. If you want the most rounded version of the car, this is the one to target.
• 10th Anniversary Special Edition: This is the style-and-collectibility pick. It adds forged matte 18-inch wheels, exclusive paint, black exterior accents, a performance exhaust, and special interior trim. Choose it if you want the most distinctive GR86 rather than the best everyday value.

Premium trim also adds blind-spot monitoring and adaptive headlights that turn with the steering wheel.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Toyota GR86?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop patiently and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 30.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 476 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have held steady compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 77.9% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $28,149, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2023 Toyota GR86's resale value?

The current average of $29,492 sits slightly above last year's $29,347.

That small increase suggests the GR86 has held its value fairly well, which is a good sign if you plan to sell later. The market is not showing sharp depreciation, so a clean, well-kept example should remain appealing to future buyers.

Because the price change is modest, you should expect resale to depend more on condition, mileage, and trim than on broad market swings. A Premium or special-edition model in strong shape is likely to be easier to move than a rougher base car.

Is the 2023 Toyota GR86 safe?

The 2023 Toyota GR86 has been evaluated by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and earned top marks across the board, including a best score of Superior for its crash-prevention technology.

It earns a 6/10 safety score from our experts.

Automatic-transmission models get pre-collision braking, adaptive cruise control, pre-collision throttle management, lane-departure warning, a lead-vehicle alert system, and high-beam assist. Premium trim adds blind-spot monitoring and adaptive headlights that turn with the steering wheel.

One important caveat is that these advanced driver-assistance features are tied to the automatic transmission, so manual-transmission shoppers give up some safety equipment.

Should I buy a 2023 Toyota GR86 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 30.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 77.9% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have held steady compared with last year.
• The 2023 keeps the GR86 formula focused on sharp handling, strong performance, and a simple, driver-first cabin.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $28,075, the 2022 costs less than the current year's $29,492 average.
• It delivers the same engaging, affordable sports-car character with a redesigned platform and strong value.

The bottom line: If you want the newer-year market with stable pricing and decent deal availability, the 2023 is the cleaner choice. If your priority is saving money and you find a well-kept 2022, that earlier model can deliver much of the same enthusiast appeal for less.
