Misread, hence the edit. I have heard that the '14s can no longer be ordered (like, really ordered, not just a dealer sourcing one for you). I imagine the '15s are following soon.

I do believe you but maybe someone here that works at a dealer can confirm that there not taking 2014 orders anymore?

Update means they might fix the current problems with the car.

The people who would trade their current twin in for the next best thing is kind of depressing.
You knew what this car represented, it was about the driving experience, not the car being an accessory or the added do-dads that take away from that experience.
Plus if you keep trading in for the next and best thing, when will it end? Sounds very expensive.

I personally can't wait to see the updates.Mostly looking for exterior changes rather than interior. (I feel like a minority actually liking the interior. )

Wooo. Hooo. Thank you Toyobaru gods! Now I do not have to consider a Golf R or a TTS. I didn't want to wait for 2016.

I hope the changes are significant. I would love the option to buy everything on the tS, plus power.

Once again, never listen to only one part of country VP. Gotta see the whole perspective

And here in Norway the start price for an gt86 is about 75k USD.. so it ain't cheap, I gotta pay 100k USD for mine, but I added A LOT of TRD parts


Delivery in late may early june though....

Think you'll be disappointed in no power change...if that's what you're hoping for.

It'd have to be a 2.5 or a factory FI setup for me to consider selling.

Love this car but the only let down is the engine. Yes it's fun revving it high to get all the power but the amount of torque just isn't enough.

Man... Everytime I'm about to bite, they upgrade...lol. Yeah that $27,800 (truecar.com pricing and the dealership honors it) brand new 2014 V6 Honda Accord that I can get WITH fogs, auto climate, 276hp, DRLs, push button start, remote start, eco mode, navi, (STANDARD) etc... Is starting to look like a no brainer at this point... Too bad the car may be overly common. The FRS IS the best looking car on the market PERIOD for the price, but it's still a little over priced and they are obviously selling for the looks alone.
