The angle of the pictures may br tricking the eyes, my reference point was the shock towers also. Best thing is to measure whenever I can see one.

I don’t think it’s feasible for them to move the engine back, the steering was already so close to the back of the motor.

I may be swinging back toward the BRZ now. The front while a bit more weird than the GR86 is more distinct if that makes sense.

Almost looking at August now and I wish individual reviews would start coming out already ��

They are making us wait way too long. I mean, the BRZ was revealed in November 2020 if I'm not mistaken.

I know this is worth exactly NOTHING, but I called one of the local Subaru dealerships today to ask when I could put down a deposit. He thinks it will be next month, I think someone else already said that as well.

I know what you mean, the 86 front looks more classic sports car and less edgy. Maybe Toyota played it a little too safe. There will be updates though for each model year I’m sure. I like both, but would lean towards the BRZ.

Damn Mitsubishi for making those popular. There’s no reason to put those on a car with a smoothly down sloping roof.
