Trading in my Mustang for BRZ/Fr-s - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Nova · 05-11-2015, 03:26 PM

Hello everyone,
I'm new here so I'm not sure where to posk/ask this question. As the title says, I'm kind of debating on whether or not I should trade in my 2014 Mustang for a 2015 BRZ limited or an Fr-s. I'd like to hear some opinions from you guys.

Thank you

I'm going to answer your topic with a question.
Why are you trading it in? MPG? Size? Community? Fan of crickets?

Just curious! Welcome!

I would probably tell you to keep your Mustang if it was the new one, but 2014 is the older generation, right?

Please do what everyone else does and ask a very open ended question without mentioning anything about your desires about what kind of vehicle you want. We cannot make the decision for you, but if you list the qualities of each that you enjoy then that might help you/us decide.

What financial position are you in on the Mustang? Are you upside down? Do you have equity? Is it paid off?

It's very likely going to be a bad financial decision to trade it in right now.

The things that is making me debate on this is because I heard the feedback and the driving experience is really top notch on the BRZ/FR-S. I also like the styling of the car and the MPG. Where I live, I see so many mustangs on the road.

My Mustang is fairly new and still making payments. I barely have 3k miles in the mustang as of right now, if that helps.

I'm still currently paying off the mustang. Still have around 18k to go I believe

I apologize for that, I knew i was missing a lot.
I haven't driven any cars beside a Honda Accord and the mustang. However, I'm going to test drive a BRZ/Fr-s today and hopefully that will give me more knowledge on the car.

What I want is a car that I can drive and push it to it's limit without getting my license suspended.. if that makes sense. I also want a car with good feedback and has good driving experience. I love my mustang, but it just feels like a tank. On the other hand, the backseat on the brz/frs is something that I don't like very much.

It is a 2014 V6 Mustang premium. Yes, I know V6 is bad and etc, but it either I get a base GT or a loaded V6. I went with V6 because of the features. There are no mods done to it besides adding an exhaust system.

Oh dude, you have the previous generation V6 Mustang? Trade it in before it loses more value.

And please keep in mind that test driving a FRS or BRZ around the block won't give you any true experience.

If you like driving and don't need too much cargo room, go with a FRS or BRZ.
