I'm in the same boat. I don't need a car payment but If they have some good incentives, I may consider it.

True, although if Hakone actually is a pearl, it's more peel than I recall on any other JDM painted pearl Lexus or Toyota including Corolla I saw at our recent International auto show.

Lol, after you said you weren't going to get another 86 and instead was looking at Jaguar.

No I think you missed a step. My stated plan was to have some other vehicle between around now and 2024 when I retire. The Jag is the retirement car. Was thinking along the lines of a WRX on the new platform for next year but this special edition changes that plan.
My original plan was that I would have moved onto a different car last year but like the FRS so much I stuck with it.

Definitely missed a step.

Get the WRX and paint it this green.

Or get the 86 and enjoy it's lavishly tan interiors. Your hatred of the front end though??¿¿

I can ignore the front end with the darker colour.
Sacrifices must be made.

The front end droop almost disappears with the BRG. I definitely like it.

These aren't limited editions? They're not restricted by a set number?


Good for you @Tcoat! Grab an AT this time

They are a limited edition but nobody seems to know how limited.

No way.
