FR-S probably has the same features are optional.

But in all, we want this car for performance. Not glamorous interiors....well most of us, some people might actually want this car for the interior. And I'm not going to knock them for it.

BRZ because of its blue paint option.

Whichever one has the options I want for less money.

Honestly, I want both. I'm not that hardcore person who wants no A/C. I like balance of performance and comfort without going over ideal weight.

Toyota GT 86 for me. I laid down a deposit at my local Toyota deal on friday! Here in the UK the options are basically Manual or Auto with or without leather...

Damn i'm so excited. Release date is sometime in June... I should be one of the first in the UK to get one.

Anyone manage to check if the center console knee area is padded on both cars or just the BRZ? I've gotten bruises during track days in my Miata, which didn't have any padding there - makes me like the idea of having padding there.

And stitching on the dash is kinda nice...

Lucky you. 1st post & u've already laid down the deposit :w00t:

Rather interesting reason.....

Well boy! You must be tall. Umm from the pics I've seen it just. Klooks to be a regular plastic knee area. But things are subject to change.

Yeah I have been watching this forum for quite a while, so I though I might join in.

Back to the question abotu the FR-S(GT 86) or BRZ. I chose the GT 86 becasue the toyotas in the UK are fully kitted out and I have always beed a Celica/Supra fan. Lets hope Toyota make this a success and start development some more sports cars like the supra.

If the BRZ had more power I would probably consider it, but the insurance could be interesing.....

Rumor is the Subaru is going to be around the £30k mark with is too much compared to the Toyota with similar performance.

FR-S for me. I learned the hard way with my last new car purchase. I bought a loaded FJ Cruiser and put more money into it than i knew i had.

With the FR-S, I plan on doing a lot with it, so I'll start with the cheapest model and toy with it from there. So for me, no point in getting the Limited BRZ.

Now THAT is a useful feature! IIRC the door panel around the speaker area was padded in the 86 training manual. If it doesn't come standard on the FR-S, it would be an accessory I'd be willing to pay for along with Alcantara seats (better seat grip than leather and cloth).

I'm going with BRZ. I like the headlights more than the FR-S and that there are more options to choose from. Oh and I'm in love with the WRC Blue.
