No love for the 2nd Gen Tc? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I personally love the way they look...it feels a lot more muscular and looks a lot more defined. I really liked the Release Series 7.0 (and those commercials lol). And they look SICK customized

Opinions?

I like the new look more than the old, though it took a little bit to grow on me. Love the cement paint though since it's quite a bit different. And I'd also love to see the FR-S in the yellow.

Not a very good FWD handling car...

Its alright.

It's not a bad car, otherwise meh, I give it maybe slightly more exciting than a civic

Too boxy IMO. Also **hides** the Kia Forte Koup pulls off the same look a little better in my eyes.

Still a nice looking smallish coupe though, and the price is pretty good.

That first one you posted in white looks very nice.

I came from a 06 release series 2.0. I loved it. Had it from 06 until I got my BRZ this year. Good car. Love the BRZ much more though.

First Gen, which some people posted pics of on here...I see a lot of hate for them and I was just curious why.

Too much of a chick car IMO

fatoni · 12-19-2012, 11:33 PM

it looks a little bit like they ran out of tc doors so they just modified it to take the door from the xb. they dont look great to me but for what it is and what you pay, i am a fan. just not for me though.

I always kind of liked the tC and even looked at them when I was shopping for a car at the beginning of this year. I could've got one with plenty of options pretty cheap using the same deal I got my FR-S with, but when I test drove one I didn't like the way it felt. It felt smaller inside than my FR-S, and I couldn't see out of it to save my life.

The girl I'm dating just bought a black 2013 one, they look ok with a mild drop and some 18's. that red release series with the center exhaust and stuff looks pretty cool but still a fwd... I would take it over the 4cyl Altima coupe, elantra coupe, veloster, and probably even the civic si since they have ruined them.
