I got mine 2 days ago. It has to be one of the best cars I've ever driven. I often said if I got a car to replace my old one, I would probably replace it after 3 to 4 years. I don't think that'll be the case with this one. Premium, with the automatic transmission in the silver color.

Such a great car. Such a great value. I got the BRZ and it’s my daily. It’s always a fun way to start the day.

BRZ is grip biased, GR86 is drift biased - simply adding camber bolts to BRZ improves turn in - I don't believe the aluminum knuckle on the BRZ is a carryover, the steel on GR86 is?

Yes you are spot on, the GR uses the carry over knuckle.

That would make it both heavier (due to the turbo system) and have a higher centre of gravity, neither of which you want in a sports car. Not to mention the introduction of turbo lag, when the responsiveness of NA is more suited to a sports car. The 86 is and always will be a momentum car that focuses on handling rather than straight line speed.

1998 Nissan maxima 190 hp manual 0 to 60mph 6.6 seconds. And it is cheaper and more practical. But ugly. The point is this weighs less with more horse power and the 0 to 60 time was 7.5 seconds in 2022.

Oh we love us some Maxima, but we have to acknowledge that the maxima, on the street, on the same day would not have run 6.6. Magazine numbers in ideal conditions are not the same as real world testing. All that being said, we would love a 4 door GR86!

there is one con, the 0-60 times need to be faster in around a 5-second low range, and a quarter-mile needs to be 12-13 second range. its torque is awesome it needs to shave off 1 second.

The rear duckbill spoiler serves no purpose. The base rear spoiler does the job for the modest attainable speed. Leave the cat naturally aspirated please no turbo. Just increase HP. Needs to be at 275 to be a true competitor. The interior needs to be made with better quality. All this said I still love mine. Some quirky to these cars. The manual will not make as good time as Automatic. Besides 0 to 60 speed is not impressive so manual has no value. Realistic, most will be used as a daily driver, so Automatic will be best choice.

Oh we have to disagree here, the manual is the entire point of this type of car. It makes even daily driving in traffic more fun because the driver is making it all happen. In a world of self driving everything this is refreshing. Also the manual in our testing is almost a second quicker to 60. That being said, if you just want t great looking and great handling sports car, but don't dig manuals, the auto is better then expected.

The manual has a lower final drive ratio, so quicker gearing that keeps the car in the power band. The manual is faster.
