I wasn't comparing the two cars. I was gonna hold out on the G37 for this car because it's cheaper and probably a lot less to maintain.

It's crazy because one day I'm in love with this car and other days I'm like ehhh. I think I just need to drive it.

Can't wait to own this car.

I think I like the BRZ more; I would seriously trade in my 370Z for this

I don't know how I feel about the front plastic piece of the BRZ, it looks very GT-Rish but it also kind of look cheap in the pics. Saw it on person at the autoshow last week and it wasn't bad but that was a concept, it might look less spectacular on a production vehicle. Plus if it isn't painted, I can imagine it turning hazy or simply cracking after a few years.

Hmmm, kinda digging the Subaru version slightly more than the Toyota. Why such a low TQ numbers from a boxer engine though? 150lbs? Kinda of reminds me of the K20 series of engines. The HP is pretty good, especially for a curb weight of 2600lbs, its 100 less than the RSX Type-S, and as much scrutiny this car recieved, the Type-S was a hell of a N/A 4 banger. Low - mid 14's stock and a few bolt ons, I/H/E got you low 14s to high 13s and hondata got you in the 13s easily though.

Hopefully this engine is mod friendly, N/A boxers are typically not

If I got this as a DD, first thing I would get rid of is the horrible stock wheels. TE37 SL

I'm ready. NT Group Buy Discount? 

The FR-S will probably look the same as the GT 86 except for the badge. No one from LA attending the unveiling?

Cant wait to see the BRZ or the GT 86 on Top Gear

 

[airphilippines]

Seats look good in the BRZ. Is it still due to release as a scion in the US?

I need details on an STi model; I don't wanna buy the BRZ and 6 months down the road I find out it will be out

What unveilling? 
Also, I think the FR-S will look more like the Toyota/Scion concept than the GT86/BRZ... hopefully.
