Man your GT86 looks so fucking nice, it has been my dream car from the day 1 it got released, getting stock one in couple months, have finally job that allows me to do so.
Been also watching Subaru BRZ´s (they are generally couple grand cheaper), but Toyota is the way to go.

And that's nice! Have you driven one? They are super fun to drive on curvy roads. There are still people who dont think you can have fun with 200hp in a lightweight RWD coupe, and people who test drive these on the highway or similar.. The only car that comes close in "fun factor" for twisty roads where I live was my Integra Type-R. Fully adjustable suspension, K20 engine swap with 250+ hp etc. That thing would swallow corners whole, just incredibly fun. |
Go test Mazda MX-5 ND, RWD 160hp - a lot of fun in corners

Looks sick man If I should leave my current company I have to return my BMW, but I could then go out and get myself something that I own, rather than lease. This would leave me some room to play around with the car too
I'm looking for something sporty, at least 4 seats and also reasonable to drive (f.e. if I want to drive on vacation/long distance). Would the GT86 fit the description?
BTW the only issue I would have is that vmax is not suitable for the autobahn... but then again if I should no longer drive a lease and have to pay for fuel myself, I won't drive 250 wherever possible

I bought a 2013 scion frs (now known as Toyota 86) in april after my Honda got totaled... love it. Got the manual shift of course.
Your car looks ridiculous, but glad you enjoy it. They really are a blast to drive. I was going to get a Miata/MX5 but figured i'd get tired of daily-ing such a small car.. plus its nice to be able to go on a trip with the fiancée now and then and be able to fit all our luggage. Compared to my mom's 2016 Miata, it turns in much sharper and is definitely stiffer. Her car even at 600 miles has such a silky smooth transmission that it made me a bit jealous.
I've added a voodoo shift knob, valenti tail lights, and corsa exhaust on mine. I get anywhere from 30-33 mpg which is pretty good for a 200hp sports car. After buying I did a full clay/polish/sealant and it still has that "Wet" look to it when its clean.
It's been reliable except for tail lights that leaked. they were replaced anyway and I also replaced them with better-than-factory gaskets.
I would do headers but living in California, I would fail emissions.

Here when making a radical change like charging an engine, you make the modification and then go to a technical verification, which verifies that it's road safe and legalizes the new state of the car, updating the new specs in the car's sheet.
Although it's much more limited than in western Europe. Here if you put a new engine, that hasn't been put by the factory in this chassis - they fail you at the start.
But sometimes we get second hand cars from Europe with no vin for the engine...
They you are still limited to factory engines for this chassis and fuel type, but you can swap engines all you like, and as long as it looks factory - nobody can object.
Also your cat is in the headers?!
Mine is at the end of the exhaust manifold..
