I think its possible that the BRZ will actually be available in SA before Toyota's 86 and I'd also rather deal with Subaru's service department than Toyota's.
so...hurry up TAS |

The thing is it is a Boxer engine and no one know Boxer like Subaru so yes the best bet is BRZ over FT-86. Subaru will have 2 pilot units in Feb so hopefully CT will get on to play with early too.

This shouldnt be an issue unless you feel these engines have a tendency to implode on a wim...I dont. Boxer engines are very reliable if not modded to the moon and back. Toyota would never put one in their cars if it were not so. Besides its a new engine co-developed by both manufacturers so I dont think this should be a concern.

The GT-86 pics are out, what do you think, is the BRZ a better choice?
