How would you build your 86?
 
I wish there was an option to purchase an 86 exactly how I want it. There are accessories and features of the brz that I like and don't like. Same goes for the frs. If I had a choice this is how I would build my car...

Exterior
-asphalt gray
-frs body style (front end and piston emblems)
-fog lights
-brz headlights
-brz spoiler
-shark fin antenna

I know this could all technically be done to my frs now, and I will probably eventually do it all but it would have been nice to have from the start. It's just hard to pay so much for those headlights when I've already got a pair that work fine :/.

Interior
-leather seats
-NO push to start
-brz climate control (I hate how the side mirrors fog up on my frs)
-NO navigation (or at least not such a crappy system)

It would be awesome if I could build an 86 just like this to purchase from Toyota.

How would you build you car? You can only use parts that come stock on the twins.

Toyota GT86 CS-R3. That is all :)

Tcoat 04-23-2015 09:19 AM

If I could have had the Monogram extras in Lava and the TRD add ons I already have it would have been beyond perfect.
Although not a big deal at all I really do miss the keyless entry and start sometimes.
Still almost perfect just the way it is.

Steering wheel with four wheels and I'm good

raven1231 04-24-2015 09:28 AM

no engine or trans?

loading_please_wait 04-24-2015 10:04 AM

My exterior and interior will be OEM. I may tint the windows and possibly have a Scion to Toyota badge conversion option.

I also wish there was a Toyota Supercharger option

I actually like having a project car that I can make my own. Basically, I would keep everything the same, except...

- I would add audio controls on the steering wheel (volume and track/station advance). Is that to much to ask.

It was actually a selling point for me that the wheel wasn't covered in controls. The HU is inly inches away from my hand and I will take the 1982 style cruise control stalk over buttons on the wheel spoke any day.

Forget stock, needless foo. In dreamworld, this checks all the boxes and is street legal:

The only regular FR-S option I would want for my BRZ is the sliding arm rest. So I bought one and installed it.

I wish both cars had a black-reflector tail light option, because those chrome tails just look too ricey. But I fixed that with Tom's tails.

The single biggest deficiency in both cars, in my opinion, is the absence of a real oil pressure gauge.

Otherwise, I really wouldn't need a-la-carte options, because the FR-S really didn't have anything I wanted that isn't already on my BRZ.

MokSpeed 04-24-2015 12:19 PM

-3SGTE mid-engine swap
-Full TRD Nur Spec Kit (no wing)

I always liked this color scheme... a little toned down would be nice.

y'all doing it wrong.

vividracing 04-24-2015 02:26 PM

I'd buy my BRZ again, then immediately trade it in for this.

http://www.topgear.com/uk/imageresiz...615&Height=347

Done.

More (or less) realistically:

BRZ (my car currently):
Galaxy Blue Silica
Limited trim
Automatic
Driveway Labs V2 rear diffuser

Changes:
6cyl Boxer
Turbocharged
Interior trim of the BRZ Series.Blue Edition. It's all blue stitching and blue leather.
Duck tail spoiler.
EVERYTHING from Cusco, the braces, coilovers, control arms, oil cooler, etc. Going with the blue theme still.

That's about it.

I can appreciate an uncluttered steering wheel and I'm not interested in cruise control buttons on the wheel, only volume and track advance.

For me, the problem is most of the controls are accessible via touch screen (skip tracks, change stations) and the screens touch controls don't work so well or consistently. Not a good thing when you're driving.

Yeah, I wanted to trade in for the new WRX before. Once I saw the steering wheel, I planned to get a brz steering wheel to replace it. Buttons on steering wheels is a huge turn off for me. lol

Yeah, honestly I think this car should have came with a damn armrest if nothing else. I'm not talking about the ugly ass Mt. Everst ones either.
