POV Night Drive: 2018 Toyota 86 (6MT)

Love the 90s look and feel to this vehicle. Also the regular key ignition over push button. What state is this?

[@MikeDrives]

I totally agree! It somewhat reminds me of those small, fun, affordable, low-powered cars back in the 90s and early 2000s. Like the Toyota Celica, Acura RSX, Nissan 240sx. I'm currently in Los Angeles, California.

Loved the video, thanks! 👍🏽

Cool video! Would you take this or the ND Miata? I know the steering and handling feel way better on the 86/BRZ as the nd feels numb and wobbly when turning. However the engine in the ND is smoother. Just want to get your take as you also drove both. Thanks!

[@MikeDrives]

It will depend on an individual's circumstance in life. For me, I would choose Toyota 86 if it was my only car. Although, I would choose the ND Miata if it was my second/weekend car. Yep, you're correct on the steering, handling and engine characteristics. I wish Mazda offered a higher spring rate and stiffer front/rear sway bars for the Club package. But in their defense, I think they wanted to maintain decent ride quality and save costs. Can't really go wrong with either car. It's just a matter of preference. I'm so glad we get options. And now the 2022 BRZ/86 is out!

Man, your country's road is wideeeeee. You barely get a quarter of that width in the UK.
