Toyota GT 86 cabrio and turbocharged sedan back on the map - report - Page 5 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Not sure how anybody can realistically evaluate how the FR-
S/BRZ will actually "hold up". There probably only a handful that even have 40K miles. We won't really know how they hold up for a few more years.

I bought mine on the strength of known Toyota reliability (although it really isn't even a Toyota)

We already know for a fact that this is not true. They have started production of 2015 FR-S and there is no convertible. I hate this kind of reporting

X2, they also forgot this one.

I love all the butthurt owners raging every time some news of new models of BRZ/FRS coming out.

Folks, it's going to happen. Maybe not this year, maybe not the next, but the FRS has proven extremely popular and has garnered attention from competitors trying to fill this spot. Toyabaru will eventually have to update their model to stay competitive. That means your car WILL be outdated one day and WILL hurt your resale value.

Sorry kids.

#1 thing to note to verify this all (AGAIN) is just more BS rumours is FACT that not a single mention on an official Toyota site. People need to stop copying and pasting from bullcrap sites.....

We should start a rumor here and see how many 'reputable' sources take it and run with it.

I'd take my frs over a 370z any day of the week.

Won't the turbo force them to mount the engine higher? How's that different from the WRX? Or maybe toyota will just rebody a WRX and call it a day.

Please show me this 'news'.

All that has been posted is copy pasted rumors solely for the purpose of ad revenue with zero sources, evidence, or credibility.
