Even Toyota ver sells more than Subaru ver, it doesn't matter. Because Subaru still making $ out of it.
Absolutely true. The 86 is a wonderful project that Subaru and Toyota have worked out and hopefully it turns out well for us people who love cars and for their profit figures.

hahah, yeah I've heard a bunch of comments on autoblog and Jalopnik where ppl say their deciding factor is going to be just which 86 looks better.

Land Cruiser is in the class of its own. Honestly, I believe that when it comes to adventure car, nothing can beat Land Cruiser (even Land Rover).
Tacoma and 4 runner are off road beasts.
Venza is so sophisticate(Camry Crosstour?).
Avalon is for people who can't afford a Lexus( I guess).
And some others...
Seems like people really forget about my beloved Land Cruiser.
Hmmmmm I completely forgot about the Land Cruiser, sorry lol. And the Avalon, maybe just because I haven't seen any of them in ages.

Good point, good point indeed. I'm even more interested in how the two different 86's will turn out now.
