Looks incredibly fun to rip around.
It's a blast!
it is
This guy probably the only car review I’ve seen that is super detailed and as well as driving the car how we want to see it driven none of that early shifting bs
Never really given these cars much thought before but I gotta say, it looks pretty sick
Same. Planning on trading my IS200t in for one
@@pHixiq such a great handling car, and a blast to daily drive up here in the Mountain's. i can imagine driving in the city wouldn't be amazing.
The news ones are vastly better than the first gens
I got a 23 LTD 6 speed a few months ago. Lowered and an exhaust so far. What a car. Future mods are oil cooler and then forced induction, one can safely push about 8psi, maybe get 325 whp.
Fun!!!
It's really good in real life. Excellent sporty car at an affordable price.
The GR86 premium review is what got me to know your channel, so seeing this but being driven even more aggressively is so cool to me 😂❤️
😂 right on!
A true successor to the ae86. Everyday affordable FR “lightweight” chassis. Great value. Unlike those $52k Acura 😂
If you can only have 1 car, this is it.. If you can have two, then I'd opt for the ND2 Miata and a 'dd'
@@dre32pitt Just got my order in, I'm so happy :)
@@15justt What did you order? I mentioned 2 vehicles.
@@dre32pitt ye sorry, I currently don't have a car so the GR86 will be my only car for the foreseeable future. I was looking at MX5 as well but the back seats are a necessity for me, even if they're small
@@15justt Good call! Hopefully you got it for sticker. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.. If I got one, i'd go old school and just do intake/header/exhaust + tune.. Id go UEL headers for dat rumbleeee
So…. That was easily the best review I’ve watched with pertinent info and driving characteristics. Well done.
He does one donut-day at the track and suddenly its all Tokyo Drift all the time! 😋
😂 It takes so much longer to get places sideways, but these are my marching orders 🫡
THANK YOU for doing this review. I never get all of the little details in other reviews such as the fact that the rear view mirror is the only thing attached to the windshield on the manual transmission model due to a lack of lanekeep nonsense. Thanks so much.
Got a Raven black Premium MT on the way from the port now. This video just made me even more excited for when it arrives
Love this car, love the commentary. Earned a sub.
This is the best and most spirited test drive of this car that I've seen. Well done! 🚗
First car ever and i was able to get the 10th anniversary gr86. Love the car and love how SMOOTH it feels compared to other manual cars (in my opinion)
I especially like how Toyota blurs out your speed when above the speed limit ;)
I was so lucky to get the 2023 gr86 last September with almost the exact same set up! It’s base manual with performance dual exhaust, but in dark blue. Absolutely adores me. Can be a bit tiring driving it on the highway for a couple of hours though. Besides that, daily driving is fantastic and pure pleasure. Btw it was my first manual car, hard at first, but once you get through it’s it’s so much fun.
I just got a 2020 gt86, first manual aswell. What tips would you have for the car?
We’re Strongly thinking about your exact same GR86 - Manual 6speed Dark Blue - Basic interior . They’re asking $29860.00 , or very close to it & we already have the CU loan 😅!! So we will see. . . 🤠👍🏾🙏🏾❗️🎉@Legendarybun7440
@@williamadams9869 As long as they don't ask for any market adjustments, I will take the car at any spec any time of the day lol. Enjoy the car if you get it!
I bought a 2023 dark blue GR86 last November. Stick, base package. Put some Pilot Sport 4S on it. This is my 2nd favorite car ever owned right behind the S2000. Cannot recommend the GR86 enough. I had a 2016 BRZ also. This car feels so much faster and just all around more fun to drive.
@@iansaunders8539 havent tried out the old brz or frs, but the new is definitely fun to drive. I also put some PS4S tires on my car, the old one definitely couldn't handle the snow weather in where i live. Those new ones work just fine
Amazing video, very engaging and honestly thorough. Love your sound setup as well, hope to see more videos from my sub now!
I got mine in May of 2023 - Already have over 6000 miles on it. My wife and kid love it, and its the most fun thing I have ever driven except for MAYBE the Gr Corolla or Mazda Miata.
man thank you. i really want this car!
I just finished school and I hope I can still get this car in a few years
getting mine finally after almost 13 months. cant waiiiit
Love the intro. You inspired me to take mine to a car park and rip the tyres up
Nice review and awesome driving. I own the twin of this, 2023 BRZ, it's been a fun car, I wanted something to learn the limits. I still don't understand when you said loads the steering wheel, I am still learning and going to continue getting more seat time. I was able to do 5 track days, 2 car control clinics, 5 autocross sessions last year.
This is what everyone wanted in this car since it was released and they finally did it 😞 about time. Looks fun and nimble.
Jesus is coming back believe in the gospel repent if you don’t believe already
Can hit 60mph in 2nd. On the Michelins, it’s pretty quick
I've got the base model and on the michelin primacy tires I find myself shifting into 3rd right at 60 if I'm driving it hard
Rev limiter hits at around 54 on 2nd (Premium/MT). I drive one :)
I can't wait to get one.
Pretty useful , I really wanna drive the manual and I think ima raw dog it . Y’all think it’s alright for me to go at it right off the top ??😅
being a broke 21 yo guy I was pretty sad that I probably won't be able to ever experience the 90s-early 2000s JDMs. But, this is good too. Yeah this is good. 20 years later, probably this car would be just as appreciated among enthusiasts as the 90s JDM like the skyline, impreza, supra or lan evo
I spent 15 years saving until I got my first s14 Silvia, now I have a gt86, and tbh, the 86 is way better, heaps more reliable, less expensive repair, does not need many mods, only after owning a few 90s JDMs do I realize how much better newer cars are. Optional traction control, air conditioning, electric windows that work, good seats, fuel efficient, cheap parts, yeah 86 wins
@@dancingswan1484 Can't agree more. Got rid of my last 90s JDM a few months back and don't miss it at all. Newer cars are better in nearly every way apart from the nostalgia. The 86/BRZ was more fun in the twisties than any of the old JDMs for me and you can drive home without the stresses of what's close to breaking.
@Realghostchilliz yes exactly. 20 years from now, this will be as classic as the ones from the 90s but a lot more refined.
13:22 ahhiiyaahh shiiietttt boiiii
Happy to own one now
I sold my 2020 /86 that was awesome too.!!!
Can you disconnect whatever cable /wire that’s making the rev sound coming through the speakers
“ fun anytime anywhere” except my right hand turns😂😂
Honestly, I’m kind of glad because I almost got one and ended up getting another S 2000 because of that and I didn’t realize how much I missed that car
Such a cool little car, they really nailed it
I like the feature how when he says thumbs up any time in the video it highlights the like button very cool TH-cam love to see it
One of the most fun cars for the money. And it’s really not that slow, plenty of power to keep up.
Not even just for the money. It's not as fast but it's easily one of the most fun new vehicles under 50k even.
One of the most fun cars up to cayman imo, and it's not even slow, you will be faster than the majority of the cars on the road, people are exaggerating about it being underpowered
I agree. Only a Porsche is a big upgrade in simply being a drivers car. It’s just because it’s labeled as a sports/performance car the numbers are usually higher. But this is entry level after all so you can’t complain.
@@sufyananigamer4345 seriously quick on the canyons. With a proper setup like more aggressive pads a track alignment, and sticky tires, savagegeese got the 86 to do better than the Civic Type R on track
That intro is wild!
Appreciating how this guy nails the canyon drive and he said a pro driver could do 0-60 in 6 aint no one better than u thats for sure
very nice, i did pickup 2023 WRX 6 Speed, fits my needs because of midwest winters
Miles is officially the coolest car test driver after that drift
I got a 2 month old baby so those backseats perfect for 10 years 💀😂
I'm going GR86. Going to go that route before getting my main car(corvette). Thinking of switching in my is200t for one of these 💯. Kind of started out in the car world with my 200t which ultimately lead me to being a Toyota boy lol. 86 over BRZ for me
You haven't considered a IS 350 F Sport or RCF or WRX? Just curious why GR 86? WRX has manual too right...
@@apoozeo1715 yeah I did consider the IS 350 and stuff but tbh, it's because in terms of the car itself it's basically identical to the 200t. Like how the car drives and looks and stuff. It's definitely faster and more aggressive but it's basically the same car. I want something a bit different. My brother drives a 2020 350 and I've driven it enough to get to that conclusion. RCF is pretty cool as well ! But for that price I'd rather get/work towards a corvette which is what I really want one day.(if we are talking MSRP) and also the same other reason, pretty much the same car and I want something different.
And I've never looked into WRX as a car for me. They are cool asf but I've never been a "fan" you know ?? That is500 I want almost as much as a corvette tho I can't even lie
i've actually gone the other way around, i have a C8 on the way and plan on getting one of these GR86s later on 😂
@@matteothehuskyfrommiami5389 whattt really ?? 🤣. Why's that man ! Or do you mean in addition to ?
@@apoozeo1715 the gr86 is much more of a pure sports car than those cars
This car looks so powerful and sporty❤
It could use some turbocharged treatment tho, this thing is an incredibly capable chassis, but I feel like its been let down only having 184lbft of torque. I know its only 2,800lbs but that is just not a lot of torque for any car at any weight, if it had the turbo 2.4 from the WRX, or the 1.6T 3 cylinder from the GR Corrolla, those engines would actually give this car the torque it deserves.
@@ZoomZoom356 just get a 4th gen camaro if you fell powers the issue honestly. if thats not enough a 5th gen. if not the identical corvette but i forgot the gens of those ngl.
I work at Toyota and love when we get these very nice car
Injection molding vs hard plastics? The hard plastics are also injection molded. Loved the review though!
Love that intro :D
I wasn't ready for that flex in the beginning
Do you use a GoPro with head mount?
the car is pretty simple and beautiful😊
Hey, what's your height ? Wondering as I'm 6'3 if I would fit alright in the car. Thanks
I didn't even get the chance to put the video in Fullscreen mode and you've already started ripping
i noticed that the digital gear indicator has delay when you shift up or down!
Had a GR Supra. Now a Cayman GTS 4.0. Just got a GR86, and I'm having way more fun in the 86 than either of the other cars.
And people tell me more hp= more fun
That's a bold statement. Care to elaborate why?
This car is better than any Porsche It’s shocking how good this car is and how inexpensive it is. I had mine for 5 days now 😁
I Test drove gr Supra and liked 86 better.
@@mikemayers8672 thanks for the reply! Any other thing you like about it? I'm currently looking for one lol
@@Luis-pd5be He's factoring in/justifying the money he's going to save once he sells his GTS 4.0. It's called 'mental gymnastics'. We all do it all the time..
Selling my 14 brz and plan to get one of the newer models next year
Eh Miles that into was dope AF!!
dang that just makes me want it more its alr my dream car
Definitely GR86 for me. That's why I ordered one 😃
where did u order 'one
you ordered the toy version
To people who own this car. How is the road clearance? I’ve never been in low car and I don’t know if it can handle speed bumps and steep slopes.
i’m getting mine at the end of june
What freeway were you driving on? Very nice car.
I really like the profile of this car, saw an ad or something and it jumped out at me. Reminds me of a sleeker Nissan GT-R. I just wish the name was a noun or something instead of letters and numbers. I'd say weapon, but I may just be drawing a connection to the Die Another Day Aston, whichever V that was.
Turn signals look LED to me, lol...
Great video though! :)
I got the BRZ Limited trim last year. It's pretty comfy and it's funny that I often get comments about how I get in and out of it as I'm 6' and the BRZ sits so low to the ground. Honestly I wanted the GR86 in red instead, but Toyota was not doing orders at any dealership in my area so I went to Subaru and they were like "Yeah, sure awesome". They seem to enjoy whenever I bring the car in as, as far as I'm aware, I have the only '22+ BRZ in northwest Louisiana or at least the only one that bought through them (the only Subaru dealership here).
Honestly my only complaint with the car is that with the active exhaust sound speaker unplugged I can barely hear my exhaust at all if I'm anywhere near other vehicles. I've attempted to remedy this by getting the MRT Street Race axle back exhaust, but then I learned I have none of the tools needed to install it even with how basic they are...
Get the exhaust. Trust
rent tools or visit a cheap tool shop.. or have a shop do it
rent the tools or buy them and return them its 100% worth
13:22 aaahiiiyahhhhh shiieet boiii
Your tone of voice pushing this thing told me all i need to know.
Sometimes I wish I never got rid of my Brz. It was a fun car
Really love the GR86 and would love to get one, but it's just too bad that Toyota Philippines (as a whole) doesn't seem to mind if this car doesn't sell in the country. It's currently priced at around US$43k (converted from PHP) - single spec, non-negotiable price. Whilst the MX-5 here costs around US$35k for the most basic soft top model.
I asked Toyota Philippines for clarification and they couldn't give a straight answer besides "internal marketing research"
Considering that the previous 86 sold for the same price as the MX-5 I couldn't consider the GR86/BRZ a great buy. What's worse is non of our automotive "journalists" are calling this out, and instead praising the Toyota branch here because the car is "worth the price".
A bunch of corporate simps if you ask me.
That's a shame. It's a great car, but it's not $43K great - especially with the MX-5 being $8K cheaper.
Which is why the waiting time for one of these tales foreveeeeeer
Takes*
Best TH-cam video opening scene
Thanks! As a little fun car, civic is excluded, it is porky, not as cut as before, so miata mx5, gr86, Gr Cotolla and veloster N( unfortunately discontinued)
As someone who is 5’3 I fit just fine in the back, comfortably road 3 hours in the back seat
Guys help me choose between gr86 vs tacoma vs lt1 Camaro or Chevy Colorado? Plz I’m only 16 want a fun reliable daily
If YOU had to pick Miles, you taking the 86 or the Kona N?
A proper review.
A true professional car review would not be complete without the best category: shenanigans.
Is it still a problem with RTV?
It is crazy that the 3rd gen rav4 (with the v6) is nearly as fast as this in the 0-60 department
a rav4 is a not a heavy vehicle though. power to weight is comparable
What I would love to do is buy one of these, keep it stock engine wise and just beat on it and rip around back roads and have fun until the warranty runs out etc, then swap it with an LS3. In the meantime, build up the brakes, wider wheels and other suspension components to prepare it for the engine swap. I'm in the market for a new car and I can't decide between doing that or just buying a higher tier car straight from the beginning, to reduce any potential downsides of having such a modified car later on.
If you're worried about numbers just go buy another car, ur gonna spend a lot of money and might not be worth it. But if u want a driving experience more money can't buy than get the 86
Ls3?????? You dont want these cars lol get a domestic
Toyota should also partner with Honda on these. A high reving Honda inline 4 would go so good in this car.
Yup a 2.0K20C
but then it would sound like dogshit lol
@@Twist3d420 lol this
just gotta put on an exhaust so quiet you cant hear the exaggerated queefs from the engine.
The handling; wish the interior quality was a little better though
Dream to drive a nice sport car as a daily
I wanted this but went for the mazda 3 premium manual.
動画が綺麗！そして86がかっこいい
they could totally drop those rear seats and make it a hatch at that point with those rear seats
Just found one ripping on the highway, he was fast but no match for a tuned cooper R53
I'm planning to buy one of these and from what I've seen, unplugging or having the dealer disable the fake noise generation thing helps reduce the drone
Note, I'd rather get the BRZ Limited... but those are basically vaporware at this point lol
I want this car so bad the waiting list is 12 months in Australia 😢
entirely new to cars and the 2023 gr86 is my first car and now I wish I got it manual. it's automatic but has paddle shifters and the stick itself can turn into manual but I heard it's not the same as a regular manual.
test drive one if you really like it you can probably trade for it.
@@InsomniaReal three months later I learned manual and now have camaro… terrible financial decision but worth it
@@jasonblandin4913 if it was worth it then it wasnt a terrible decision have fun
Crazy how the GR86 has functional vents, but the supra doesn't
GReddy Turbo kit on top and its perfect
Doesn't need that.. the extra weight upfront may impact driving dynamics as well.. Better off going 'old school', i/h/e + tune.. If you're trying to get 'big power' you should start with a different car, imo..
Edit: Intake/Header/Exhaust + tune will get you close to 10:1 HP to Weight, at the crank considering the car is underrated from the factory
I hope to afford a fun car some day
Mine has the gr exhaust and it doesn't drone at highway speeds lol
The first time I have seen the gr86 I thought it looked more like a supra then the mk5, appart from its size
Great video, very beautiful. I'm a big fan of you＋👍🔔
Thank you for watching!
Can you do the miata next compared to this?
Great POV drive review of the 2023 Toyota GR86. I would take the GR86 over its competitors and value.
I'll take a GR86 with some eurobeat please
Let's watch!
The 86 and BRZ are MOSTLY the same, but there are notable differences. The BRZ uses aluminum knuckles that are much lighter weight. The BRZ also incorporates new sway bar mounting points and sizes while the 86 kept the same old stuff from last gen. BRZ has a more grip\handling focused while the 86 is more "drifty". The BRZ is actually less harah and more compliant on the road as well. Realistically the BRZ is the better car. It costs less as well.
I also like the BRZ more since it is a better daily, imo
The red stitching looks so good in the BRZ. Plus the black part of the lip can be swapped out if you hit a curb.
The gear indicator in track mode is delay.
Double clutching?
It’s a killer!!!
Startup has the Subaru chime.. would have thought Toyota would have changed it to theirs??
Why don't you shift down while breaking ??
Wish subaru would fix their excessive rtv silicone issue in the oil pan. Even a year after I'm still hearing about that in new 2023s and engines blowing from it.
It's not that big of an issue as u are making it out to be. Otherwise Toyota would have recalled them...
