i has Subi so resale is already going to be higer. :p


as much as i want a high re-sale, i cant see it being the case. in 3-5 years when i sell mine, insurance premiums will be though the roof with people writing them off, speeding and losing their license. (putting up video's on youtube in their 86 overtaking on double white lines and speeding... as i have seen already)
Cops will be targeting them as a "hoon car"

'P platers' will have put XR6 bonnet vents in them :\

There are plenty of clips of idiots driving cars that are not 86s/BRZs.

its all about demand vs supply. 86/BRZ will be everywhere (like Corolla lol...) after 3 yrs.
dun be surprised that dealers would value GT at early $20k, GTS at mid $20k or even less.

btw...new models keep coming too.

What sort of idiot posts themselves doing that online? Clear loss of license speeds (40kmp/h+ over a lot of the video...67kmp/h at one point), overtaking across double white lines. That's just inviting cops to hunt you down. Those sort of videos are best not made public.

I am hoping they do hunt them down. i was kinda hoping they would go off the edge.
Overtaking on double white lines, and over taking on that road is just downright stupid.

And things like that just give the rest of us bad names.

you say that as if thats the kind of behaviour that the vic 86 page condones and participates in. trolling idiots like those in the video (who risk the lives of others for their own stupid enjoyment) is fine, but when it comes to trolling someone modifying their car in a way that makes them happy, for the sake of trolling, thats not needed.

the vic 86 page seems to have a great bunch of positive, active members. your constant negativity will not be missed. i didn't realise who you were on these forums, and i didn't mind your posts on here, so its disappointing you troll people for the sake of trolling.

The speed through-which he took those corners and straights weren't as bad as I thought they'd be. But those over takes where some of the most stupid moves I have ever seen and is very lucky to be alive... if he is still.

you got kicked out because you were just a douche who was ripping on everyone for doing things with their cars because they want to, and they enjoy it, whereas you just want to keep yours stock and protect your "investment".

you weren't funny. no-one thought it.
