      @@otto8127 probably not a replica here in Australia, we can still buy new genuine from Toyota with an aero chassis number AFAIK. The "GTS Aero" was about a fifth of the sales here... Which means there's probably about 5-10 thousand of them floating around for the number of years they were on sale. The people who bought them were 50/50 on keeping the wings and there were a bunch of people without wings that wanted them. There's regularly "want to swap my winged boot for a wingless one" and usually half a dozen or so up for sale.

      Car 101: never sell a car for a blown gearbox, especially when you can get less on the price of a remanned one if you drop your old one (at least in most European countries i frequent).
      Blown engine, crashes, rust, fed up with X car, ye maybe, but never gearboxes. It's the most complicated cheapest item you can fix on a car.

    I understand why you bought it back. I had a ‘15 FRS, and I loved it. Traded it in for an ND Miata. Which I absolutely adore and have no regrets trading it in for the ND, but I do really miss the 86. The steering feel, the flatness in cornering, the amazing seats, the funny audible shift reminder, the old school clock underneath the infotainment screen that was a nifty little throwback to the clock in the original ae86. The distinct engine noise from a flat four with the oem equal length exhaust manifold. Aside from the flat spot in the torque curve, which I know can be remedied with exhaust and ecu tuning, it really is a great little sports car. A different kind of fun than the Miata.

    You might be the best 4WD channel but if you were the best offroad channel you'd know that the AU is the best car ever for anything. On road, offroad, skids, skids, sounds, daily, towing, moving, carrying, camping, smiles, practicality, reliability, chops at the lights, posing, cruising, road trips, adventures, easy to work on, skids.
    Secret, I have 3 AU's and none of them have done a skid while I've owned them but I've seen other people do skids in AU's on the intertubes. Apparently they are the best skid car ever which would make sense since an AU is the best car for anything ever.

The BRZ got these things over the Lotus: interior space, a trunk, updated technology & cheaper/easier to repair and probably to insure as well.
