86, the Call of Duty rehash in car format.

Finally! Was seriously considering the Ts but would prefer a TRD.

I tried so hard to rationalize an 86 over the tS (previous 3 vehicles and current DD are Toyotas) but just wasn't working for me. Picked up the car on Wednesday and now I see this, lol. I couldn't be happier, though... I love the Subaru.

I have seriously been considering a black Ts. It still looks nice but I love the TRD products for this car.

So yet ANOTHER version that offers nothing, although I'll take the brakes.

Toyota 86, the iPhone of the car world.

Meh... 86 and BRZ are literally the same car except for badging and the front bumper... even if you bought the 86 the only Toyota part would be the badges recycled from a corolla or camry. Paint on my FRS is definitely Subaru quality...

There is no current offering from Toyota like that of the tS, hence, my post.

Wouldn't it just be cheaper to by a low mileage used one and put the same TRD crap on it?

Sorry,but if they aren't increasing the hp,by whatever means they deem fit,I just don't see how it's worth it.Hell,a 25 hp increase would probably be enough to satisfy a lot of people,but just throwing on extra insignificant pieces for an extra $6k,is borderline insulting.

Elliotw · 07-09-2018, 11:21 AM

Wish they had more pictures! I hope it's cool.

mrderp · 07-09-2018, 11:59 AM

What's with the salt?
That's a 86 with the PP the BRZ had for the refresh.

yurikaze · 07-09-2018, 12:09 PM

Oh man. I would totally be getting this if I hadn't already gotten my tS, as I prefer the 86 over the BRZ.
The fact that they're making 1,418 of them compared to 105 black tS's softens the blow however.

Here are my predictions based on the description of the car:

PetrolioBenzina · 07-09-2018, 12:42 PM

Not bad. The red on the badge looks good, although I removed mine.

Cheaper, yes. I'd prefer to purchase a brand new car off the lot though. I've always purchased used cars. I want something brand new for a change.
