Anime and Manga differences

 * In the manga, Takumi decided to scrap the AE86 he had since the beginning of the series. In the anime, Takumi keeps it, although he doesn't plan on racing it anymore.
 * In the manga, Takumi attends Project D's disbanding party in his father's Impreza. In the anime, Takumi didn't attend the party. Instead, he uses the Impreza on another delivery run, and even witnesses a Toyota GT86 on the road.
