If the BRZ/FR-S didn't exist, what would you have bought? - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Boss 302, early NSX, and Z3 M Coupe were all on the list.

lordtakuban · 07-16-2012, 07:06 AM

STi most likely. But, I'm glad the FR-S exists since it looks sexier (and is about $10K cheaper).

MVJ1975 · 07-16-2012, 08:44 AM

I would have stayed in my tC until I could afford (and be willing to put up with) a Lotus Elise.

RaceR · 07-16-2012, 08:52 AM

I would keep my Cooper S for longer, and probably considered a 1 series when replacing it..

mclevin · 07-16-2012, 09:16 AM

Renault clio rs 200 or s2000

S2kphile · 07-16-2012, 09:20 AM

Used Cayman

Draco-REX · 07-16-2012, 10:20 AM

NC Miata with a Flyin' Miata forced induction kit.

M&M_Hwy9 · 07-16-2012, 10:23 AM

This one is easy a Toyota GT86!

b_massey02 · 07-16-2012, 10:43 AM

A 350Z, 370Z, S2000, Solstice GXP, or maybe on the practical side a Mazdaspeed 3 or waited for Focus ST. Glad this one came out tho cause all of those had something I wasn't 100% on.

Dadhawk · 07-16-2012, 11:18 AM

There was nothing in the same "class" as the 86 that interested me, so next on my list was the Camaro SS2 or ZL1.

My list just got weirder from there....

f0rge · 07-16-2012, 01:41 PM

i'd just keep my M3.

Godzpeed · 07-16-2012, 02:01 PM

F30 328i

genometuning · 07-16-2012, 02:14 PM

hm.. a GTR?

Miniata · 07-16-2012, 02:28 PM

Maybe nothing, I've been happy with my Mustang GT, Mini Cooper, NA Miata, and Forester XT the last few years. Probably a 2005-06 NC Miata, or another NA Miata with low miles to keep mostly stock though, as my current NA Miata is reaching new heights of NVH as I modify it for autocrossing.
