Unless you love the looks of the new 86, there is no reason to buy it over the BRZ. The BRZ comes with more stuff out of the box for less money. It also has Hill Start Assist. You should be able to turn it off.

I owned a 2001 Prelude SH. It was a nice daily driver, but heavy and a little numb. My 1998 GSR was a lot more fun, and reminds me of my FRS.

Have you driven one of these cars yet? That's what I would suggest first.

I have owned mine for over 3 years and I can't think of a car I would rather own, but I have a son so I need the rear seats. If I didn't need rear seats I would probably driving a used Cayman S.
