In my defense, a couch is a couch, 9 times out of10 you don't really care what it looks like so long as you can rest your ass on it

Nothing to defend there dude. I agree with you 100%! Was just a little observation about the camo pattern.

I wonder how many of those 100K members own the 86.

Jamaica has the FT-86.

most renders are

remember when we had no idea what the BRZ looked like, and almost everyone was assuming it would have a super aggressive, WRX-style fascia (and also a hoodscoop because as a Subie it's obligated to be turbo)?

All the more reason Toyota should kill the failed experiment that is Scion and re-badge the North American-market Toyota GT86 as a... Toyota GT86.
Why GT86? It is simply the 86 in Japan.

Adding "GT" in front of the "86" makes the name sound about 20% cooler.

THIS. ^^^

Otherwise, just adding 2 to the 86 gives you this, which must be cooler it's named after a bigger number:

That's just in defense of all typical guys. My wife, however, would disagree with us.
