I like the interior, cup holders are fine because I drive with 2 hands on the steering wheel.

I dislike the exterior, alot.

That front guard and sill looks like some 16 yrar old put a wide body kit on it.

I would be kicking and scratching that sill everytime me or the Mrs got in or out.

Gen1 was clean with no boy racer crap, this thing looks like a Honda and a twin had sex and this came out, if I squint it's ok, with my glasses on it's a hard pass.

Bugger, I was looking forward to buying another new 86, a big part of car ownership for me is just looking at the car, that was why I sold my 2015 STI, it looked like a Kia that was released after I got my STI, this would remind me of a Honda full of fake vents and wings, I would hate looking at it.

Unless the Toyota doesn't have that fender and sill combo.

Disclaimer: I'm 55 and am way past slow cars getting body kits to look fast, the car might be tight and handles great, but the boy racer look has lost me, I reckon alot of the older gen wgo buy these new will be turned of by the exterior, especially that sill.

The King is dead, RIP Gen1

Meh
