Toyota 86 vs Scion FR-S: A Visual Comparison W/Poll - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Impureclient · 03-28-2016, 01:20 PM

Can somebody create another new post with both the cars in one color? It's hard to compare the different colors. Also, another comparing the interiors.
And another post about which one will have cheaper insurance. One that has the rims of the 17' photoshopped with curb rash would be nice so we can see what that will look like too.
Please don't combine any of those, they need to be separate.

Can somebody shop the new wheels, headlights & backlights into old FRS? I bet it's gonna be 3x as sexy! Need to know if it'll worth looking for those '17 partouts lol

RichardsFRS · 03-28-2016, 01:32 PM

FRS just looks more as it was intended to be, sparse fun, the 86 looks a little luxo to me and that front end? why?

Overall I like the FRS much better. Don't like that fact now the stash is now part of the Toyota brand. Both Subaru and Toyota need to find a way to ditch that ugly thing

Can the next thread be "if you had to pick one just based on performance"?

ichitaka05 · 03-28-2016, 01:38 PM

Isn't it correct to say "Zenki vs Kouki" instead of FR-S vs 86?

That's what I'm going with (or at least trying to).

raven1231 · 03-28-2016, 01:41 PM

I still think the refresh should be called bukkake it's more fitting.

JD001 · 03-28-2016, 01:42 PM

I would pick a BRZ.

FRSBRZGT86FAN · 03-28-2016, 01:43 PM

At least we know the front bumpers are easily swappable, you could easily buy a 2017 then put some other aftermarket/replacement front bumper on it from 2013-2016. The headlights and side markers all mount the same exact way so I wouldn't doubt that bumper cover is removable like the old one.

jvincent · 03-28-2016, 01:44 PM

I went for the 86.

I like the new wheels and back more than I dislike the new nose.

I'm gland someone appreciates me

Ok, who left the gate unlatched and let this guy slink in?

The pictures make the new 86 front design look more bloated than it actually is. It does look much better in videos imo. HOWEVER, I'd still choose the FRS design.

xFury · 03-28-2016, 02:45 PM

Like the FRS better, but that white stitching looks nice but seems like it will show all the dirtiness lol. Prefer the steering control, but it looks really weird on the 86.
