92 because that's what premium is local to the Seattle area. I haven't seen 93 around here although I am aware it's the recommended grade. When I did my road trip to Minnesota, I encountered a few...

It's especially pronounced with the sports cars though. They all look like you could almost swap the bumpers between the four cars besides obvious dimension differences.

Are you saying that I'm lying? The 86 is one of the best chassis for under $100k. Fact.

It's also one of the lightest sports cars on the road, beaten only by the Miata as far as I know, why do you...

Because 2019 Subaru Ascent, that's why.

The same engine is also theorized to be due for the 2020 STI, or perhaps the 2020 WRX, with the STI receiving an even bigger engine.

You can engine swap an 86 and have a lighter, lower, more balanced, and more powerful car, for cheaper, a lot cheaper.

Everyone thinks it's a $50-$100k supercar, I had a couple of gas station cashiers looking at it and me as I walked in and they're like "is that a Ferrari?"
