What do you plan to trade in for the FT-86? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

My DD is an '04 *mildly modded* WRX running Cobb stage 2.5, and I think by the time the FT-86 becomes available it'd be time for me to trade the Rex in for the -86.

What do you plan to trade in (if you do indeed plan to do a trade-in) when the time comes?

If Subaru does come out with an AWD/turbo version running EJ25...I may jump that route though.

My RX-8. I like it and it handles decent but crapass gas milepage.

Plus I'm getting sick of the styling. The FT86 is a beautiful fresh looking design in my book!

Im going to be dumping a 2001 S4 for this car, the day it hits the dealership

I was thinking of getting into a S4 but not anymore if this car comes out... have you taken a look at the new ones?

Well, if it turns out to be in my price range, or in any way feasible for me to buy it, I will be getting rid of my 2000 Celica GT-S for the FT-86.

If Toyota actually brings it to the United States, and everything is as seems. (ie. it's not hideously heavy.)

Yea they certainly look nice, but I think the car has gotten way ahead of itself and is too big and heavy now, its ore of a cruiser car with the power to back up the image at stoplights. But its really lost its drivers credentials along the way. Im more interested in something small and light with razor sharp reflexes and thats why i'm pinning my hopes on this car

Stay strong, don't get the S4 just yet, atleast not until we get the offical specs of this car

Nothing. I want to keep my current car and bring this home as its "little brother"

BanningFT · 10-12-2009, 09:05 AM

If I still have my Celica, I'll trade in that.

I will be trading in the yaris. Having owned 3 miatas previously, I long for a FR layout car thats light and has a decent amount of power.

Planning to trade a 370z in for the FT-86? Damn that speaks volumes for this car, even just in concept form

Not enjoying the 370z or just like the FT86 that much?

Interesting, because if the FT-86 disappoints, this would be my next choice -- how do you like it and what don't you like about it?

Aznsky · 10-12-2009, 07:54 PM

2005 350Z. Hotchkis Sways, Tein/Koni, Cat-Back, HFC's etc.
