Your ideal 2 car setup (1 being your FRS) - Page 5 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Lol Zaku has a cockroach won't die very easily 2001 Honda CRV daily and the other is the BRZ.

I think I would love it if my daily was fun to drive. But I think I'm ok with this set up.

If I honestly had to redo everything to have a 2 car garage without a wife, it'd be a reliable daily beater honda fit (this thing has more options than most luxury cars 5 years ago damn, hdmi input?!) and a cayman gt4.

similar money to current garage, but i'd be 10x happier. Wife wanted a lux-o-boat of european make.

It really depends on wants and needs. Also where you live can play a big part of it. I live out in BFE and my daily driver is an F150. It honestly is more truck than I need most of the time, but it doubles as a big, comfortable cruiser. When I was shopping around a comparably equipped mid size truck was around the same price and got similar gas mileage, so why not spring for the bigger, more capable truck? If I lived in a city, it would be a different story, as even my F150 is no fun on the rare trip to Tampa or Miami. Well, it's great to and from the cities, it just is a bit of a pain IN the cities.

All that being, said, living where I do, my ideal second vehicle in addition to the BRZ would be a new Raptor :P No, I can't really take advantage of the desert running capabilities, which is why I didn't buy one to begin with. But, if cost didn't really matter, that's what would be in my driveway.

2016 FRS (Currently Own)
& I'm currently saving up for a 2017+ Honda Fit.

I think think it will compliment the FRS perfectly & I can fit everything I'll ever need. Also will be awesome little family car.

I know a few people who have them and everyone seems really happy.

JoeC · 06-02-2017, 12:54 PM

BRZ and a full size, long bed, 1-ton truck (I prefer Chevy). That's the combo I have now. They are opposite ends of the automotive spectrum and do everything you could ever need.

My wife has a new outback so it makes a better people hauler when needed.

Yardjass · 06-03-2017, 02:54 AM

My twin is fun but my love is and always will be the LS-Z. So I'd have that and a V8 or Diesel pickup truck for towing and daily duty. Ideally though, it would be three cars with the twin as the fun daily and the truck reserved for truck stuff like towing, hardware store runs, and pissing off liberals.

I'll go as low as 1 and 2/3. After all, everyone knows it's just an Impreza with a body kit.

FRS & Supra here. Haven't had a reason in years to own anything larger, and can always put a tow hitch on the FRS to haul small things if need be.
