FR-S, BRZ, or 2013 Gen. Coupe - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

kounkong23 · 12-21-2011, 05:56 PM

After waiting a very VERY long time for the FR-S, I'm sad to say I might have to abandon it. I'm not super impressed with what's been revealed thus far, especially the interior. This car is going to tear up the track with its' superb handling but I want a DD. The BRZ so far looks to be the superior of the two. I know a lot of people were not impressed with the re-fresh of the Gen. Coupe but the newest video of it actually looks pretty good.

What is your point? So you don't like the car and don't want to buy it? Why make a thread just for this? Not very helpful to the community.

Giccin · 12-21-2011, 06:05 PM

So.. you made a rant thread?

kounkong23 · 12-21-2011, 06:07 PM

Well it was supposed to be open to discussion but I guess you two didn't want to discuss it.

JDLM · 12-21-2011, 06:09 PM

You came to a AS1 Chassis car (GT86/FR-S/BRZ) message board and are looking for us to talk you into one of these cars vs the Genesis ?

First of all it comes across as if you are trolling. Secondly if you are serious you posted in the wrong section. You should have posted here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=25m Thirdly, there are already threads in that section comparing the AS1 to the GC and 370Z. Please don't troll.

If this car's lack of heated seats and push start make it less of a dd to you, then I think you need to look to another market.

This car has everything a normal person would need for a DD and all for a great price.

Yeah but there are going to be differences that help one sell vs the other

Here is the vs thread.

This car isn't for all. I'll admit that I was bummed out that it was a Scion and with Scion comes with a lower grade quality but I'm slowing conforming. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but if you think the GC is better suited for you, go for it. :happy0180:

We're surrounded by so many aftermarket products so seeing the interior as a major problem seems like a minor issue. This car's core is what it's all about so why not wait till you have driven all 3 cars b/c you might have second thoughts. At least hold your opinion until then...

Did you ever think that maybe it isn't the car but you.

I was thinking of the samething, new genesis or FRS. I work at hyundai but my mom and brother work at toyota so i can get a good deal on both cars. New genesis comes out February and the FRS in spring. So i will drive both and decide.
