SUBARU - BRZ vs TOYOTA - 86 (3 Viewers)

[iJimmy]

86 and BRZ are pretty much 99% similar, how do they compare to 2013 GTI?

 

[obliviousninja]

Essentially the same shit, but BRZ is more dear.

Stock vs stock the 86/BRZ has a better power to weight ratio than the GTI. The GTI is front wheel drive, 86/BRZ rear wheel drive.

Admittedly the lower drive train losses and fact that the gti has a lot more torque thanks to the turbo would mean its quicker in every day driving, but not as fun or good looking. (Subjective, but most will agree the 86/brz are better looking and a good handling rwd sports car more fun than a fwd hatch)

I only like C63 when it comes to mercedes. I would say I'm more of an audi person, I reckon they car body design is fairly elegant.

brent012 so what would u be mirin more? a 86 or GTI?

final verdict
plz

i need anything under 50k preferably 30-40k that looks good, has good acceleration, turbo, and preferably 4 seats. no second hand crap.

Not even second hand @ ~10,000kms? Let the original buyer absorb the initial depreciation rate and costs.

 

[iJimmy]

all the 63's look epic

 

[Carrotsticks]

I mean look at this, easily 50k.

Tbh, if you have to ask you probably arent the target market for the 86.

 

[iJimmy]

i like 86 for looks and not that much performance but i like GTI for a bit of both, confused?

The only true nissan is a GTR. Everything else is nothing.

 

[Carrotsticks]

Or the Hyundai Veloster (has a Turbo version too with some sexy matte grey paint). Was one of the cars I considered.

Or you could be a bogan and get a HSV/FPV haha.

... Definitely don't buy an 86/brz then, an auto 86 just isn't right.

~~but he can use the semi auto function to feel like he's driving manual~~

fuark, then my life is ruined. i am perfect at manual at NFS, lol. How do you learn manual in real life, is there some class/course you have to attend or is it just buy a manual car and learn from experience?
