On the road: 2017 Toyota 86

Don’t mourn the now-discontinued Scion FRS much — it’s back as the renamed Toyota 86. Cooley drives the 2017 model and checks the tech.

It should of carried a Toyota badge to begin with here in North America. About time they ditched the "scion" sub brand.

For the money, that Toyota isn't good value for money. It should have been priced $20K

The display itself isn't actually optional, just the nav chip is, I'm getting a blue Toyota 86 soon and I'm opting out of the nav upgrade because I'm going to swap the head unit out for a Pioneer AVIC 8200NEX with Apple CarPlay functionality anyways.
Also, regarding the back seats, since everyone is always so curious about those. They are KIND OF usable. I haven't picked up my car yet, but I work at a Subaru dealership and have had a chance to play around inside the interior of a couple BRZ's, now I'm kinda smallish-average, I'm about 5'9" and I like to jack my driver seats way up, as high as they'll go, this actually creates comfortable foot room for behind me, coupled with the fact that since I'm a Sunday-type driver, I like to sit further up towards the wheel, the seat behind me is actually quite usable, the problem is actually the passenger seat, since it doesn't rise up, foot room for the right rear passenger is almost non-existent, even with the seat pushed ridiculously far up (as far up as I could get without my legs being entirely scrunched up).

the 124 looks better but its not even comparable in my eyes to the 86 performance wise..

I love and hate the touch display in the 86… I like that its touch but yrah it doesnt have nav, bno CD player and you cant change the color. Id rather have the CD player because in mine im stuck with bluetooth which can also be good or USB which is a pain. I have 1000CDs sitting here and i rarely use the anymore 🙁

Its almost the same price as a vw GTi but the Torsen diff comes standard, drive wheels are at the right place, slightly lighter with its weight better distributed along the length and height of the car
but people keeps bitching about the price
