It's top to get in a spot to topgear top guys to review the car, but it look to me the 86 is right in the center of the magazine this time among those supercars ! it's looked very optimistic for 86 could have been among the winner best car for topgear guys. This would be an epic & amazing achievement ! After driving the 86, I see why you just can't drop a 500hp bomb power to a car and said it the best car ???! The best driver car need to have good chassis, balance, steering & handling in it class. The affordable 86 has changed the car world period.

The best sports car... in the world.

Clarkson loves making insane pronouncements when he likes something. I think they just brought the other cars along so he could put the 86 on a larger winners podium.

I find it funny that even over in Europe, there are people that would buy the BRZ just because it doesn't have a Toyota badge.

It's sweet that it won!

I think it looks absolutely amazing, but then again I doubt you will find very many people on this forum who disagree.

This validates it as the real deal.... I'm sure this will reflect in more sales.
