What car will the FT-86/FR-S/216a be for you? - Page 4 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I don't think anyone is qualified to say they don't like the 911 GT3 before driving it.

[es vi: eks] · 06-03-2011, 12:17 AM

It will be my daily driver. May take it to the track ocasionally.

If I get one it'll be a daily driver... At least till it's outta warranty, the 180 might get retired after that lol

If I could have an MP4-12C, even better MP4-12C GT3 I maybe wouldn't be here.
And no doubt the 911 GT3 is the best track car ever.
Also, if 370Z, Audi TT or Corvette, I'll take any day an M3 or a Cayman.

DD with a little bit of track.

Can't believe only 5 of us are going to track our FT-86. Do all the others have GT-R, M3, 911 GT3, Ferrari and Racecars ?

Those who track cars are just a small percentage of those who drive. Some might not have interest. Others can't afford the costs associated with it. Others don't have time, or have other hobbies they enjoy more or other demands that take priority on their time. Many reasons why.

There was no option for "both." For me, the majority of the time, it would be my "tool around town car" while tracking it when autocross events pop up that I can get to. I work from home so it's not like I really need this car to get to work. This car is for fun, plain and simple.

It means many people are honest

Which I appreciate.

For me, racing is a priority as soon as I'm out of school and have disposable income (until then, I can only afford autoX); for others who might not want to so badly, life gets in the way.

My FC TII is already my track toy which never sees the street. If i were to get another toy it would be a FD, or S15. My current daily is a 03 BH9 Subaru Legacy Wagon GT. The FR-S will serve as a secondary weekend warrior/daily.

NESW20 · 06-05-2011, 03:20 PM

i would autox/track mine, but it's mainly for DD duty.

Though I voted the FR-S to be a daily driver, it will be used more on nice days out, night time, weekends & a possiblity for track use. I'm still gonn keep my tC as a main daily driver vehicle.
