Still Worth It In 2019?! | 2019 Toyota 86 GT Review | Forrest's Auto Reviews
Being a car reviewer, I drive many, many cars. The BRZ/FRS/86 has been out for a good while with many other cars challenging the budget performance throne. If you want a dedicated, traditional sports car, this may still be the best way to go, even in 2019!

Way to drive the hell out of it and hang those revs! I loved it. Fun to watch. Great job as always 👍

[@Biggus63]

I've watched a number of 86 reviews and this one is particularly well done. I have a 2017 model and I'm pretty much in agreement with you on all points. "Grainy" is a particularly good term for the engine, myself it sounds like a coffee grinder so it's no Alfa noise wise. The odd torque curve which so divides people is something I've actually grown to quite like since it forces you to drive cleanly and efficiently. If you mess up a corner entry by overcooking it or braking too hard, or you're not in the right gear once you hit the apex it punishes you, not by sticking you into a tree but by making you slow. Some people would call that a fault, but I like the fact that it demands I bring my best game to the equation. If you want to improve your driving this is a great car to do it in, and I say this as a 55 year old with heaps of experience and a reasonable skill set. People always talk about modding this car, but the truth is that the first thing to upgrade is the driver. If you have an overinflated sense of your abilities that's not something you want to hear so you blame the car, but unless you're a pro race driver it's true.

[@WildBillMojo]

Yeah I think thats the point of this car; it’s supposed to keep you on-it. No point in more power if you can’t drive it as it is, unless you want to lose your licence faster.

[@Biggus63]

@@WildBillMojo Even as is it's hard to behave, after all it will do about 130 kmh in third, and 110 is tops where I live, so you go looking for roads that will let you work in the 2nd-3rd-4th range. I have some good forest roads within about an hour's drive that will give me that with little traffic and just the odd 'roo to dodge. Funny thing is that the car it reminds me of is the original Mini Cooper S, not handling wise of course but in the overall driving style. Exceptional chassis and not a great deal of grunt so it's all about conserving momentum.

[@eltreum1]

I thought the same thing about this car. There is a good explanation for the infamous torque dip. The engine has 2 identities to make the car marketable and get the most out of its unique dual fuel injection system. These are production road cars that have to meet ever more restrictive standards to be efficient and reliable without getting too weak. You're typically driving in the sub 3500 RPM range most of the time for an efficient and cleaner commuter car you can afford to drive everyday that would last years. 5th and 6th are longer gears than other sports cars I have driven but I think it's for a sweet highway MPG and quieter ride. It's technically a 4 seater for regulation reasons and they can use the chassis in almost any race league the car would be good for to develop and promote it. They really wanted to make a classic naturally aspirated high revving RWD car with just enough power to have fun on a stable chassis as cheap as they could. Stock the car has everything you need for a great drive and if you really want more of anything you can do tons of aftermarket things which was in the plan. When race driving you are living in the 4500-6500 range on the other side of the dip. If you fall into the dip or try to power through it you are driving it wrong. The stock powertrain/suspension can take ~4-500HP and mild boost twin screw superchargers are the best match IMHO for this engine. Better tires are the smartest first if only upgrade for this car. It is in spirit the successor to the AE86 Corolla that can carve corners or drift with ease. Like you said you have to learn how to stay in the power band and if you screw up you just go slower and less likely to kill yourself or the car. Have you removed the resonator tube that pipes engine noise into the cabin? It sounds better to me and a little quieter in the cabin.

[@eltreum1]

@@WildBillMojo Agreed. It's a car that teaches the driver. The NA engine was made to race high rev and you have to pay attention to stay in the power band and out of that torque dip. Those stock tires are fun to drift but you learn how to control the balance of the car to get the most traction out of them eventually without the computers help. Mastering this car makes you more skilled at driving in general IMHO. It reminds me of my old NA Supra which was more fun to daily drive/drift than the 600+HP Supras my friends used to build.

[@Biggus63]

@@eltreum1 No, I haven't disconnected the piped in noise yet. To be honest where I live the roads have quite a rough surface so the tyre noise is huge, which doesn't bother me much since mostly when I take this for a drive that's exactly what I'm doing, driving it in a spirited manner. I have a sensible car for other stuff, but I've also heard it suggested that the standard Michelin Primacy tyres are really noisy and a change to Pilot Sport 4 tyres will help a bit both grip and noise wise so that's up soon, as soon as I can justify ditching a perfectly good set of tyres I guess. Until I start taking it to track days probably, the Primacys are OK for what you can reasonably get up to on a public road anyway. I really agree on the dual nature of the power plant, when you're putting around trying not to attract any undue attention it's quiet and unobtrusive, and when you're giving it a bit of stick you spend all your time above the torque dip if you have any clue what you're doing anyway. I reckon it's a modern classic, and the people who don't like this car don't know what they're missing out on.

Very good honest video and glad that you really took advantage of the car. As an owner of an original '13, I wouldn't think of getting anything else (I picked it up with 150 miles off the lot for 23K in 2013). Anyways, I still find it ridiculous how many people continue to bash the 86 due to it's lack of whp. Obviously, most of them probably have never driven a 86, nonetheless a true sports car. Relating this issue back to the GR Supra, I find it amusing how many self-proclaimed engineers and entitled Supra fanboys there are. Once again, chances are they've probably never driven a MIV Supra or a BMW. Toyota & BMW knows what they're doing and i'm sure they know who their target audience is. Good video though! I would say the car feels even better when you slap on some good rubber and coils!

Still on stock wheels and rubber after 5 years and still wildly entertained.

[@tofufregit]

Very good and honest review, thank you! I drove my cousin's 2019 GT86 last week and loved the car, the steering feel is so nice with a very direct response, amazing grip and turn-in capabilities even with the stock Primacy tyres. Stock suspension is on the stiff side but in a good way (nothing like my '99 GC8 WRX on coilovers for sure), car feels planted but I still found it to be more than acceptable for everyday duty. Brake pedal feel with the Brembos was very stiff with 0 dead travel, which I loved. Overall very surprised with the car behavior, liked it a lot. I've been looking forward to drive one of these since they came out... as a former AE86 and GC8 owner for some years now, I followed the development of this car since it was just rumors on the internet and before the first FT-86 concept even appeared, but even though I sat in the car a couple of times or so, never got the chance to actually drive one until now (they're really scarce in my country, I know it may sound weird to you americans but people in Europe doesn't seem to care anymore about small fun cars :) It's a bless that we have cars like the GT86/BRZ and the ND Miata... I still couldn't decide which of these should I get, lol.

It's not because the BRZ is UGLY with that retarded subaru smile. Get a gt86

[@creelar5205]

This is a new car for takumi

[@austinlugo2378]

the port injection will force your valves to stay cleaner over the thousands and thousands of miles you drive. I have a 2015 wrx which is just direct injected, so my valves are going to need to be cleaned 4 times as often since there's no fuel passing by them and cleaning them.

[@SolidMGSnake]

Looking forward to the 2020 model. Heard it's going to have a turbo

[@GXKid06]

I really love the 86. Im going to buy one some day, but, man does the sound the engine makes sound like crap on stock headers. Really could use some UEL headers.

[@pwnzlikeme]

Uel,cat back, and some other goodies make it sound real good,

[@detaart]

Test drove a 2017 one of these. Wasn't all that impressed tbh. It's fun when you're on it, but a pain to drive in traffic. The thing had NO TORQUE WHATSOEVER. Didn't sound very good at all either. Recently bought a 2019 mx5 RF. Much better car, but it does need a set of coilovers, which i've ordered.

"legless passengers" same as my 2017 86 glad they haven't improved things! do they still fit the naff battery that goes flat in a week if you have the alarm fitted? My wife has the MX5 and the 86 definitely has more (front) legroom, as for the sound plug up the sound port. You don't need more power especially with the Prius tyres it's lithe and fun, it's about handling not power if you want speed get something else.

[@gigaslave]

To do list for optimization: Upgrade the exhaust pipes for cleaner performance from engine, tune it, and get top-quality tyres.

Good it’s a manual. I’m tired of seeing these automatic “sports” cars

[@avim2578]

Max Phythian dual clutch is faster than manual

[@maxphythian381]

@@avim2578 it all depends on the car. Manuals take skill, and way more fun. Autos are easy

[@avim2578]

Max Phythian manuals “taking skill” isn’t really a skill. They’re harder to learn but they take just as much skill as any car does really. They’re funner but dual clutch is safer and always wins. Everybody in Europe drives a manual lol, I’m sure that doesn’t mean they are all more skilled drivers than people in America. I’d prefer this car to be a manual when I get one but if we’re talking M class or anything more sports than that, you must get a dual clutch or you’re holding it back with the slow shifting. Also automatic prevents ways to stall the car and damaging when shifting at the wrong time as well; it’s really just the more advanced choice.

@@maxphythian381 is the reason i drive only manual transmission

[@AinokeatoProductions]

@@maxphythian381 So, you're a non-car guy telling people things about cars. You realize, Modern Automatics will outpace manuals all day long right?

[@basithph8958]

Honestly I would love to get an 86

[@paulroche2265]

Love your review man! :)

[@marcuszarafonetis6544]

i just bought a 2018 gti and i think that is a much better option. i have put a tune on it and is running 300 whp. i have put apr lowering springs on it an apr short shifter and a carbon fiber cold air intake. the handling and performance now is very good.

[@DivineKaze]

If I’m being honest, I wouldn’t pay more than 22-24k for one of these.

[@Norrr3]

Unknown I agree

[@85corolla]

They should offer an option that comes with everything but the drivetrain.

[@isaacfortner]

What if you were dishonest though?

[@campkira]

for 2019. NO and I own BRZ.

[@skvltdmedia]

More than 20, registered. In the 30 range, 370/Muscle/WRX makes perfect sense and they're all in a whole another proper tier.

[@louiechrisfuertes9715]

Im here because of Initial D....🤘🤘🤘 Tofu anyone?😁

[@BboyVReck]

HAHA there's new Initial D manga. Look up MF Ghost, done by the same author who worked on Initial D

[@louiechrisfuertes9715]

Hey man! Great informative video! One question though. From 5:25 to 6:45, did you have the Traction Control turned off?

[@tins4879]

he did
