Saw it, hated it, and finally, farewell to you all - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Pistol Pete · 06-20-2012, 01:23 AM

Well, I finally had the chance to see a Toyota GT86 in the flesh. The car has a nice enough exterior shape but the interior is utter hideous. Talk about a cheap interior! How can any self respecting guy take a girl out in this thing??? Maybe it's good for a bromance. How about the stupid flimsy plastic diffuser?? It was horrible. I now know what I suspected all along, that this car is just another ricer. I find the car embarrassing. It'll be the butt of every joke and it'll go the same way as the celica, supra, mr2 etc, etc, etc. Sorry, but this thing is not for me. I can afford so much better! For example, the Megane RS250 is another league of car in every concievable way. The build quality, the engine and performance, and the interior is infinitely better. Renault know how to build a proper affordable sports car that is NOT cheap. If you guys don't know how to reconcile affordability with quality, as is patently obvious you don't, then it's no wonder you went for a toyobaru.

Oh, just before I bid you all farewell, have you guys seen the mounting complaints on youtube about the god awful chatter from the engine that's about as attractive as a tractor motor? So is this how a sports car is meant to sound? There are also idle problems being reported on youtube too. Lol, one guy's toyobaru was idling so badly, the tacho was going up and down like a yoyo!

So it's with a heavy heart, I say, good bye and good riddance to you all, because you have been duped, but not I.

Someone's mad. But hey I know what you mean by the interior is cheap. Just relax about it. You don't really need to make a thread about leaving.

The Supra is the butt of jokes?

Well, anyway, check back to see if anything production oriented comes out of the Gazoo racing twincharged prototype. In the meantime I'm keeping my Z.
