Anyone had 86/BRZ buyers remorse? :)
Just wondering, getting my car by the end of the year. Has anyone who already has their car (especially if you're partially or fully financing) have any regrets what soever?
Also, what do you dislike most about this car? ![]()

No regrets yet. It's my first new car, also the first car ive ever financed a portion of... The most difficult part of owning this car imo is not modding your warranty off

None I love it. In my price range it was the only car that ticked all the boxes.

After working on an older car over 6 years and making it immaculate at the end of that time, I regret buying a car that just... works with absolutely nothing wrong with it.
If I could go back, I would've bought an R32/33 GTR in an average state of condition. Ah well. Saying this the 86 is definitely a unique car to drive and is fun in it's own way that no other car I've driven captures. |

No regrets at all.
Would like a little power boost few years down the track. Wish the door arm rest was a few Cm's higher. Cup tray arm rest needed. Wish the steering wheel was a little lower and closer to me, so I could drive with my knee's just like a did in the celica. |

Wanted 50/50 split fold rear seat.
And I didn't want a massive spare tyre and lots of useless foam blocks in the boot. Want more boot space. Apart from that, this car is sick. ![]() |

No major regrets at all yet...this car makes any drive a fun and interesting drive, the only slight issue (depends how you see it) is that it may attact a bit too much attention at times!
