Are those plaid removable vinyl seat covers available now.

YES > https://grizzshopping.com/products/r...ar-seat-covers

Do want the plaid tartan

The ones in the pic are not as fast because they have less stripes, and everyone knows stripes add performance.

I've driven an Abarth. Almost bought one but went with the FRS. No regrets there. Leased a 500E. OMFG is that a fun little car. Turned it in. Got a Spark EV. Turned it in. Got a Ram 1500. Got an I-Pace. I wanted the 500E again since about 3 months after I turned it in.

I watched a review on a 2019 86 a long time ago and the only complaint I remember from it was that there was no one-touch blinkers. :bonk:

This is atrocious.

"(7) Bigger oil sump (extra 2 litres of motor oil) to extend service interval from 5,000km to 10,000 km."

My 2018 has service interval of 15,000km or 9mths here in Aus.

I get that it is a "wish list" so beyond reproach but reading some of these totally ludicrous wishes is hilarious.
Either there are going to be some totally disappointed people or Toyota is just going to re-release the 1974 Celica lift back.

Just, please, not one of these.

I hope Toyota/Subaru build pretty much the exact car with new styling and spend all the development money on having two engines on offer, NA and a higher powered TC variant.. Even though I've always been in the "just enough power" boat for the twins, I have absolutely hated hearing the power argument come up again and again on YT, articles, magazines, forums, etc...and since the Zupra most likely will never come with a stick, for me a turbo 86 with a stick would be the next best thing.

Other than that, the only real wishlist item for me would be to have a liftback/hatch (miss my 240SX's hatch) but only if we would still be able to carry 4 mounted wheels....following the twins has been a wonderful journey and I'm looking forward for many more years of driving fun!

Hell yeah perfect. I think 230 is a solid number. Good enough for those happy with a stock car, but also leaves room for those who want more out of the car to modify as they wish.

I'm kinda open to the idea of a T top BRZ, but I'd have to see it first. Miata and S2000 guys have shown that you can track an open top car with no compromise. Would be interesting to see and I wonder how many people would actually buy it lol

Lol if have plaid seat covers then you definitely pull your E-brake in park.

Mainly.... leave the car alone!

No hatch
No shooting brake
No turbo
No Disneyland dashboard
No refinement
No delete options
No targa top
No sunroof


But do address torque dip
Spoiler/wing dealer installed option
Delete sound tube

All electric option with all wheel drive and 600 mile range.

That covers it.

Oh, forgot to ask.

Does the Supra come with the Toyota clock?
Did the BMW dash reject it and spit it out?

-Keep it NA I
-Keep the port and direct injection methods
-Taller 6th gear
-If the HVAC would actually stay closed when it's off. Under WOT, the car gets pretty toasty... Especially my feet.
-UEL headers but that's probably never coming back
-Higher strength steel usage to reduce weight

All in all, I'm pretty happy with the current version. Probably an unpopular opinion but I wouldn't care if they kept the 2.0L (which I think they'll do) -- so long as it's accompanied by more weight savings.

Push the cabin recirculate button even when it is off. It will stay closed then.

I dunno.. I'd say needing a roll bar and having to pass broomstick to track on many tracks is a pretty big compromise for a street/track dual use car.
