The worst part is any order probably isn’t showing up for 90-180 days… sooo he will probably forget about DFD before the unveiling.

I took a look to see if any :dillerman: have any listed for sale around here, none of either car (no surprise).

I noticed a could of things... the Subie is rated 3 MPG better on the highway, I wonder why that is? Also, I was pretty set on the Premium/Limited higher trim, but now I sort of wonder if it's actually better. I am pretty happy with cloth seats, although heated are nice. I probably wouldn't like the Michelins either way as I just don't really like Michelins ( :wrong: I know).

I think the premium trim gets you the duckbill, nicer wheels+tires, heated seats, blind spot monitoring, auto/digital climate control, and two extra speakers for audio.

The PS4s seem to be getting dece reviews. They're certainly not a rapidly-delaminating PSS.

I honestly could go either way on the wheels and tires since I'd probably replace them anyway (and also downsize to 17s, although the upgraded 18s look fantastic), but the other stuff is nice stuff to have, especially if it'll be a daily driver. Plus, I love the duckbill.

Yep, if I get the Toyota, I think I'd get it for the duck bill alone :lolol:

I guess it's a tougher call on the Subie as I think I'd be happy with either seats and would possibly want different wheels/tires anyway.

I also like the base wheels on the Subie pretty well, not really a fan on the Toyota. The upgraded ones on both are pretty nice.

I strongly dislike the duckbill in photos. Maybe seeing it in person will prove me :wrong:

I like the base subi wheels a lot, but find the 86 more appealing. Not sure if it's the duck bill or something else.

The nose looks spread is too great for me. I would not BRZ. Also, I'd just rather own a Toyota than a Subaru.

The front of the GR86 is definitely preferable to my eyes.

GR86 looks sharper, BRZ is cute :doe: , should resonate with Miata enthusiasts!
