Really cant compare the BRZ Concept with the road going ft86 leaks.

You need to compare the brz concept with the fr-s concept and the ft86-II concept.

As both companies road going cars are going to be the same body and nothing like any of the concepts panel work.

Looks wise I prefer the Toyota as i've never been a Subaru fanboy. Plus the subaru will always be knows as the "Subaru version of the Toyota" if you ask me because all the concepts until recently have been Toyota badged and its what we've been staring at for the last few years waiting for this car to come out.

You'll never look at the Toyota and think "rebadged Subaru" but you may well think that when looking at the Subaru model. Which is Subaru's own fault for taking so bloody long to get us a proper concept (Showing us the BRZ STI Concept a few weeks before the unveiling of the Road-Going car...yeah... nice one Subaru.....talk about turning up late to the party).

But saying that if the Toyota outsells the Subaru at something like 5-1 because of the price difference then i may go Subaru as it'll probably hold its value better.

i would go with the FR-S, i think its more simple which IMO fits this car the best.

Which one looks better?

Whichever one has a triple turbo PI/DI Flat 6, AWD, a hatchback, weighs 1600lbs, and only costs $15,000 dollars, and is also named "Levintruenotribecaturbokarateexplosion STI Spec C Type RA-R SE GT Limited GT Four Alltrac Type R"

Hard choice, but I'm going to go with the FR-S. Looks more agressive than the BRZ, because I'm slightly disappointed at the Subie when they showed it off at the auto show. Still looks amazing, but the FR-S has that meaner look.

Just wanted to combine the ridiculous expectations some people have for this car with some of Subaru's equally outlandish naming conventions. For Example, the Subaru Impreza WRX STi Spec C Type RA-R was an actual car. Where do you fit all of that on the back of a car?!?!

Anyways, they really need to fit the "turbokarateexplosion" part in there.
