I'm new to the sportscar world, although I drove a little SCCA autocross with my dad when I was a lot younger. I literally just went from a Wrangler starting in 2006 to the 86 last month as a daily driver. I'm about 15 years into a law enforcement career, so really pushing a car to its safe limits isn't terribly foreign. But you can imagine my thoughts about hoons and various kids with shocker stickers, bolt-on wings, fart pipes, and their hats on sideways. Anyway...

I've been in this 2020 86 for about three weeks now. The challenges to me in my stock car are pretty much daily. At least people sizing me up. It's taken a lot of self-control so far. I really, really love driving. And I am starting to daydream about mods. Might as well go order that shocker sticker.

Well, if you aren't all that enthused about having to get a Shocker sticker, there's a few other options to choose from, and one of them is sure to be more your taste than the quite tired Shocker.

Might I suggest the Show Stopper...because if you're gonna go, go big.

If we are talking about that, shoot, thi FR-S, BRZ, and GT86 are all the same car, look at the simularities cause i feel like alot of people overlook those, (not saying you do,) i just noticed you hadent entioned them.

It is hardly news at this point though. Anybody that thinks they are different in any way other than bumpers and features don't care anyway.
They are made in the same place at the same time using the same parts (variances in trim and model aside)

Dodge and chevys in particular, they love to get next to me, floor their magnificent, high displacement, automatic transmission truck and speed past me. Leaving me in a cloud of diesel smoke.
