There are not many 56 year old CEO's out there who are rev heads and would get behind the wheel of the Toyota 86 and drift it like Toyotas CEO Akio Toyoda.

It just goes to show how engrained drifting is within Japans car culture.

Whilst the video quality is not the best, it is still a decent exhibition of what the Toyota 86 is capable of when a revhead at heart is let behind the wheel. The added advantage Toyoda has over us is, that with this being a company car, he doesn't have to worry about breaking it and forking out the $$$ for the repair bill out of his own pocket. And additionally, if it is bent in a bad way he won't have the 6 month wait we do to order in another one.
