A place to have Toyota 86 (Sicon FRS) and BRZ information, pictures and everything to do with it. The more I modify the car (it's currently on wheels + tires, coilovers, exhaust), the more fun it is the drive, but the less I want to drive it on a daily basis. I'm now in the market for something boring to daily drive while keeping the 86 for the weekends/summer.
GR86 - A good car. But I don't think it's one of the greats. Good, but not great.
(in stock form) I think it has the potential to be amazing and one of the best cars EVER, but I think you need to spend money on it This is my personal review after driving the car from 10 miles all the way up to. Toyota GR86 vs Mazda MX-5 Your Thoughts? (self.whatcarshouldIbuy) submitted 1 hour ago by Business_Willow2605 I'm 24 year old guy and usually either drive alone or with another person. My daily life typically involves just one bag and short within city travelling, so storage isn't a primary requirement.
There's been another rash of engine failures on r/GR86, but I noticed that it never gets posted/discussed here. I have my own theories on why, but rather than ask a leading question, I'll just ask: What are your thoughts? The 86 (and the Miata for that matter) are drivers cars. They're built to have the driver feel really engaged to what's happening on the road.
They're incredibly fun on twisty roads, you can push them much more on turns than you can in other sports cars that are heavier. On the other hand, the 86 is a very safe, fun, and manageable car. That's what they were made for.
Especially if you're a car enthusiast, it opens up a whole new world for you (in terms of modding and taking care of your car) that you wouldn't really have with a commuter car (unless you would straight pipe a civic, in which case, please don't). Hey everyone. I'm in the position of buying a 86.
I just want some owner reviews on how reliable it is. If u guys have some articles or vids addressing reliability I would appreciate it too. Have an awesome day.
Hi guys, I just wanted an opinion from the Toyota 86 owners as to what to expect in terms of maintenance and the drive quality for everyday use. Since I am planning to buy the car to use as my primary vehicle!. He was saying the Toyota 86 is in the same category as people who buy dodge chargers, mustangs etc.
since they are very low tier stereotypical nice cars. I can see what he is saying, that an 86 may not be that great on gas and not super practical, but I never thought an 86 was a sheep-like car similar to a charger or any other cars like that?
