The BRZ sport tech or ts is the logically better buy for me. But I'm a silly nostalgic classic Toyota person and the 86 belongs with Toyota. I will never be fully satisfied driving this car and seeing all the Subaru/STI logos. So yes, my reason is completely illogical lol. Especially when I'll be paying more for the GT 6M model than I would for a ts which comes with 2 upgrades that is probably valued ~2k. Paying more for less just for that silly Toyota emblem.

I'm thinking if I'm going to consider subaru, I might as well look at the WRX, and if i was going for that... I might as well tack another 10k of debt and go STI. But I've want to change things up with a RWD as I've pretty much driven AWD all my life (first car was celica altrac st165, then rav 6 till now)
Re badge! Subaru is written all over the 86 anyway. Just open the hood.
