35 here. Yes I'm old. I drive a 99 WRX. Love the car but I want something new and more compact. I'm starting to care less about making big power. Even though I wouldnt mind having a BRZ with forced induction. I'll either get the BRZ in June or torture myself even longer and get the 2013 WRX STI.

hi everyone, first post on this forum.

31 here, from EP3R -> EVO 9 -> 350z -> Lancer Ralliart (current ride) + CIVIC sedan (current ride)

i was thinking to just keep one car, that's why i sold the Z. But i've changed my mind again. i will either get a 370 or FT86 as for my joy ride in few months.

Hi ya all, aging at 31 , from 02 Mark II > 05 Mazda SP20 > 95 Sunny(Current Ride) + 07 Rav Ltd

Was going to buy a Toyota Blade 6 months ago until i read about the 86..

So holding on to grab a GT 86 now most probably would hold off till mid next year since want to get the supercharged version(if rumors are true) , if not then going for the Top of the range GT 86 with TRD Kitted (provided the price is right)

48. Bought MR2 new in 1991. Sold in 1998.
Bought new ITR in 1998. Fourteen years later, ready for something new.

MajorMing · 01-16-2012, 10:33 PM

26. I have an 02 RSX that I got new 10 years ago. It's been great but it's time for something new. Hopefully an FR-S if the price is right.

33, BMW E36 316i compact, I don't care about ridiculous power, only the funness of the drive, of which my car has bucketloads. being a 1995 model though, she's getting on in years, and not wanting to move away from the RWD small car setup, the 86 is the best choice. it'll probably be late 2013 before I make the plunge, so hopefully by that time there will be some good deals floating around, or some second hand models. I really want to buy a new one though. Dark Grey 86 with the TRD exhaust

EP3R · 01-17-2012, 12:49 AM

Good luck to all the guys who can afford a 86

Hopefully we get a $35-$39 price here in oz.

i believe that would be the price range. So, i would imagine FT86 will be everywhere in SYD (like corolla)....

remember to add on road cost.

Lobo · 01-17-2012, 02:01 AM

Currently driving an '05 XR6 Turbo
Car before that was a 1989 Mazda 323 'Shades Edition' :P
Before that was a '95 R33 GTS-T mildly modified for 207rwkw
Before that was a '98 Magna

So yeah, lots of different cars lol. But you know what? I regret selling the Mazda. It was such a tiny, fun car to chuck around and despite it's complete lack of power I miss it. Hence a BRZ/86 will bring back that fun and then some, while having at least twice the power of the Mazda lol.

EDIT: I am 24.
