Who else bought an 86?

Noticed a couple of threads in classified of people parting their Yaris due to a pending FRS/GT86/BRZ arrival... I'm one of them, I pick up my my BRZ Sport Tech on Thursday. Keeping my Yaris though for a winter car.

Looking to get into an FR-S at the end of the year, but I wish they offered a real white instead of puke white.

Nice car, but the Scion mentality, you need to spend 30% of the car's value to mod it properly!!

I think the op is talking about me :)

Yup , hit a deer on my Yaris. Been owning the car for a little while and now is a good time to change . I test drive the frs and sold .... Will get the car by the end of the month with the 5axis kits on .

Reason for me to get the frs is because is cheaper than its twin, and I'll be mod the heck out of it , I even already have a wheel set waiting in the basement before the car :)

Not my car , but it'll be the same color and bodykits and 19" work equips

Picked it up today..

Had dealer install Eibach pro-kit and my Wheels prior to delivery. Still need to install the plate relocate on the front.
Not much for mods planned, hopefully a Borla exhaust if I can save the pennies.

What are the specs on these? They look cool and all, but do that have the mojo?

That looks like it has a front lip different from the FRS. Is that a subaru only fascia?

From all of the big car magazines and professional testers/drivers...the car is considered one of the best handling cars that you can currently buy...from ANY manufacturer.

This car is what sex on wheels looks like
