As much as the kid in me wants more horsepower, these cars (particularly Gen2's) are just about perfect as they are.

You can absolutely yeet them into a turn and then decide with little more than...

Going on a bit of a tangent, but most mid-engine sport cars lack an LSD entirely, or only offered as an option in the "race-trims". The cited reason is that MR have enough weight on the rear wheels...

Sad to read the 86 is no longer for sale in the UK because of pedestrian impact laws.

Too bad they can’t teach the fool pedestrians to look up from their phones once in a while

When the first gens came out there was little talk of how "underpowered" they were. They were also heralded as changing the landscape at that time.
The whole underpowered thing came later as the...

This is the first review I have ever seen that says that they think the Gen1 is better looking than the Gen2. I figured Tcoat would have done a victory lap by now.

Enjoyed this review. Have loved Evo for many years. My only complaint is their overtly obvious Porsche bias.

Just imagine yourself sitting across the person sharing a couple beers and it changes the tone. Text always comes across so harsh compared to spoken word.

Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious, but still, I lust for them. Thanks for the write up and thoughts, seriously, in my mind I cross shop the Evora and the BRZ as crazy as that sounds $$ wise.

Steering on my '17 has never once cut out on me at the track, even on Hoosier A7s. I'm pretty sure that was more a problem on earlier gen 1s.
