the definition of you don't need to go fast to have fun

Well done! I own an 86 and I'm usually on my own on the backroads pushing the limits of the grip and enjoying the hell out of it. Stop light racers be damned, I really do love the car.

bought a GT86 last year after having a Celica for nearly 10 years this car makes me smile every time I look at it

[Boxman]

My first mods to mine were slightly wider wheels, coilovers, an exhaust, and dropping it by about 3-4 inches and it made the handling much better, especially with high performance tires. Good tires make a big difference

I bought one 2 years ago now and love it to bits taken it to track twice been round mountains in it and still use it almost every day to work

Driving a slow car fast and to it's max capability is always more fun then driving a fast car slow.

Got my GT86 one day before Christmas last year and its awesome to drive while it teaches you alot about driving. Already drove 1000km with it and its awesome.
Of course on straight roads, the high powered sport cars are always faster but as as soon as insane curves are included, you beat 10x more expensive cars if your driving skill is superior which will take years. GT86 is easy to learn, hard to master.

i mean the purpose of the 86 series IS handling and affordable and smiles per degree of steering. with the added aftermarket availability the second purpose of tunability its a gem.

most underrated youtube channel i have ever come across keep up what you're doing :)

[allergicseagaming]

the GT86 is probably gonna be the first car I actually buy myself I've wanted one for about 8 or 9 years now and the hype of the car is slowly starting to rise now so I hope I can get one before the price of them starts to rise

[smilepermile]

Great video man 👍 Many naysayers who misunderstood this car were often the ones who don't take this car on narrow winding roads! Glad you enjoyed it. Would be great to see you drive the new GR86 with its increased engine displacement 👌

I have a '17 one, and you just made me want to drive it again (been 2 weeks since)

[BRZguy]

They're really not as bad as people act like they are. If you're the type of person who would be happy with a 240sx, MR2, Si, FTO, Miata, then you'd be happy with one of these.

At 2:38 you missed the chance to say "you catch my drift"

hey just an FYI since u mentioned the engine noise can be a bit much—engine noise is piped into the cabin, just cover the lil pipe... its accessible from the mats under the driver's seat, look up a tutorial to know what i'm talking about. but yeah thatll reduce some of the engine noise you hear from inside the vehicle

[captvalstrax]

I own one and I'm so happy in it! Even my parents who aren't petrolheads love it as well.

Also I feel like Jeremy Clarkson smiling while driving one tells you everything you need to know about it!

[Bhavlina]

Throwing it sideways sounds hella fun! Loving the jumper too 🤪

[pfunkle]

My 117hp Honda Fit is "fast" enough for me, and wicked good fun - can't understand people who think the Toyobaru GRZ is slow! It's one of the best looking cars on the road, in my opinion. Hoping the prices will go down a bit since the introduction of the GR86.

I absolutely love mine! She loves the open moorland roads we have here in Devon

Nice review 👍
I bought a gt86 last year and I love it, done a few things to increase power and torque changed cat back exhaust, k&N panel filter and changed manifold to decated then had a remap, it's added 20 bhp in mid range and increased torque just makes it a bit more fun ! IV had many faster cars had 3 Evo's Subaru, focus st and many more but as you have pointed out this car isn't all about power it's a fun great handling great looking car and you don't see many around unlike the hot hatch group !
And there's plenty of mods you can do to make it stand out even more .
👍
