I seem to like the FRS more everyday... - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Owned it since august of 2012 and with 20k+ miles on it, all I can say is that I love this car a lot. Now that it's turbo it's like a whole new car again.

I wonder what Nissan has learned from the FR-S and BRZ's success.

I wish they would bring the 240sx back...it would be a great competitor for the twins.

As of right now, they don't have anything in the same category IMO

Why not a BRZ Limited? Has both those features and you can test drive it now

Nearest dealer is a good 45m drive, Toyota dealer was a 5m drive.

Ah, well if you haven't test driven the FRS/BRZ, it might be worth a try to show why people pick the 86 over the higher HP cars.

I've actually wanted a Camaro ever since the redesign. In saving up for a big down payment, I discovered the BRZ and immediately changed my mind after a test drive. I've never had so much fun driving up and down mountains, and never felt it needed more power (although that won't stop me from adding more later

)

Look on the internet. I got a 13 limited for four grand off msrp. I also drove 45 minutes, but it was worth it.
