I don't really care all that much between one or the other looks-wise. They are both handsome, IMO.

I got to see the BRZ in person at the orlando auto show and it was quite a looker in person. I think the 86 will probably look better still but it’s not bad at all.

So far the review is 5/7. Here’s what I have so far.

It looks SICK in person. I don’t know if I’m gonna change the front at all.

The grip and confidence going around a circular on ramp is supernatural for this class of car. The fact that they put PS4S on here stock should tell you everything.

The back seat is H U G E. Headroom? Loads. My hair would brush the top in the miata if I sat up straight. I have more than enough room for a helmet in the N when I’m fully up straight.

The dual personality of this car is incredible. I was SHOCKED at just how much the exhaust shuts up when you put it in normal. Zero drone. It vanishes. In sport+ the exhaust pops are borderline obnoxious, but not MHD BMW insane. The suspension in normal mode is perfectly liveable. It can be a great commuter car. Tap the N button and you can FLY.

Rev matching feature is pretty neat. Works great.

The seats are super comfy and have a massive wow factor. If you have thicc thunder thighs like me you can feel a little cramped and pressed in after an hour and a half. As far as bottom thigh support, it’s great. No floating legs like I was plagued with in the miata.

Manual itself is good. If you’ve driven a manual brz or frs, it’s pretty much the same as that. Clutch feels damn near identical. Definitely gonna miss the :meata: ‘s linear clutch. Why does everything have the stupid spring part way up the travel? Ugh.

Everything on the inside seems to work good. Hate the gloss black plastic. I might wrap it. Fuck that stuff when its scratched up and fingerprinty. Other than that? Totally fine.

I've seen a few of these around me and they are pretty cool looking. Kinda loud, but nowhere near CTR levels :lol: . I like 'em. I just wish they still made the hatch version :( , but they seem to have gone all in with the Lobster as their hot hatch offering.
Need more pics, :doe: , including the interior.
