This just pisses me off. Too bad it's a smart move to just keep developing the car without changing performance so some people will buy, sell, buy again.

If I would've known about this, I definitely would've waited. That'll help the 13's resale prices go down down down.

I thought 10 Series has the push-start? This one is basically the full GT-86 Limited that I had been wanting since these cars were introduced, but was only available as the BRZ, basically, up until this year. Even then the 10 Series was about 70% complete. Now we finally get THIS? Seems like Toyota has no clue what they're doing and should have just released it as a Toyota in the first place and killed off and absorbed Scion. Just rebadge and remarket all the Scion line-up and call it a day.

Digtital climate controls and push to start make me lean towards getting one. All other stuff either I already have or don't care for it. If pricing is 28k and below than you have my attention and possibly my money.

Good thing I'm swapping this thing in a year or two.

I've always been 100% sold on a BRZ...

...Until now. If they end up pricing it close to a BRZ Premium, my head might explode.

Is it just me or does the timing seem to always be off with Toyota?

While I'm happy to see this, I think they should have released this when the 2014 model came out...not 3-4 months after :-/

Curious what the price will be for this car, as the 10 series (that had half the features of this newly announced one) was priced at the same as the BRZ.

Anxious to see what their "official" arm rest will look like though.

Really hope the jdm headlights become cheaper and easier to get instead of getting them straight from japan and spending 2k. Maybe with the monogram series it'll be easier.

Sounds like a BRZ might be a better fit? there's a 3rd less of them on the road, if you're looking for a more "special" car.

Honestly, even with the amt sold I still rarely see them on the road. Remember there's about 28 million plus people here.....30-45,000 total 86's isn't too much of a dent against other cars

I'm not even mad. I bought the car because it's a drivers car, if I wanted these features and then some, I would go ahead and buy a 3 series or is250.

You guys are over reacting.
