U.S. / Canada = FR-S
Europe = GT86
Japan = 86
The whole world = BRZ

OP, it depends on what you see as added value in the BRZ. If you are basing it entirely off the navigation, be forewarned many people find the BRZ navigation lackluster.

Not to say the BRZ doesn't have some nice added features. IMHO the interior is definitely nicer on both the Premium and the Limited, and some people plain prefer the looks of the BRZ's front end. Not to mention the Limited has some goodies like heated seats, and autounlock/pushbutton start.

The relatively poor quality of the BRZ's head unit in addition to the fact Consumer reports rated the FR-S's headlights superior to the BRZ's was part of what pushed me to the FR-S in the end. That and the fact the BRZ Premium I ordered was still MIA after 8 months wait time...

Basically, just make sure you do your due diligence to research these cars so you get the one that is right for you!

Wrong.

In Austrailia, GT & GTS are both trims just like for the BRZ with Premium and Limited.

And in Japan, those are kit's like TRD. There's no GT86 in japan. For one, they have no GT86 emblem on the back like Europe does.

And RC, it's a stripped down model. Unpainted bumpers, no radio, halogen head lights, stripped interior(?), etc.

In Japan it's just "86" GT, GT limited, G, RC actually are trim levels.

Nope, do I seem mad? Just wondering where you have been!!?! Google could have answered the question you posted here... Or even a trip over to the Toyota and Scion websites! No ones does research anymore in the forum era.

Also IMO keep the S2000 unless you are really sick of it. FR-S is pretty much the same car with a real roof and less power.
