Hope to get the oemaudio system soon

I thought the 86 came standard with a touch screen in Europe?

The specs say it has bluetooth as well. I don't know of very many cars with amps in the trunk though, it's certainly not OEM for an 86 of any region.

Most people who care enough to consider changing the audio system hate the Scion unit, which is standard no matter your region.

I have bluetooth on my stock audio, And there are midrange speakers in the dash, they are right under the A-pillars. Its one of things in the car that I have zero complaints about.

There's a little silver box behind the back seat, under the trunk cover. Driver's side, I believe. That's the factory amp. Not saying it's great, but it's there, in between foam pieces.

I think I found the inspiration for all the random lines scattered around the A pillars:

When I fill up on gas, I feel that I have to lean down to hold the pump....

That's the unit I have on my car (Touch & Go), no complains at all. I thought it was standard all over Europe.

I also have the same touch&go unit, it's not that bad, but the oem sound sucks bigtime compared to my mini R56 with hifi upgrade, which wasn't all that great too.

I hate the digital clock, the adjust buttons, and that whole piece. It's stupid, i wish someone would fab a piece to replace it with a multifunction clock/one-line gauge.

It's a clock. It does its job. How fancy should a clock be in a car?

Based on many of the opinions here, it should be an analog diamond-studded Rolex.

It doesn't need to be fancy, but if there's a digital display on the dash, why not show it there along with the date like everyone else? And what about having one button on the stalk and two on the dash to control the OBC? That where it shows it was an aftertought and feels cheap.

But I know it's just a minor niggle. If i wanted fancy buttons i would've bought a bmw.

After 4 months with the car, I only have one complaint - no glove box light. This is a big hassle, especially since we don't exactly have a lot of storage space in the car. I like putting my wallet, sunglasses and cigarettes in there, and at night i have to fiddle my hand in there to find them.
