My son took my grandkids 3 young adults for a ride in mine. All fitted and survived although my grand daughter told me not to let her father drive it again.

The rear seats are NOT there for insurance purposes. Toyota chief designer Tetsuya Tada has literally said he gave the 86/BRZ rear seats simply so they can fold down and owners can carry an 4 extra tires to the track. That’s it…he said he didn’t want to create a pure two-seater like the Miata and S2000 because those require a trailer, or a friends van to carry extra tires and he said that’s a pain in the ass. So he made millimeter adjustments to the car specifically so an extra set of tires fit with the rear seats folded down. That is the only answer why it has rear seats.

To go further, insurance companies haven't been fooled by the 2+2 trick since the 1980s, if not earlier. Risk assessments today are based on crash statistics, demographic info, and other data points that are much more related to the potential insurance payout than an extra pair of seats that never get used. The fact that everyone still spreads this little bit of misinformation really highlights how little understood insurance is.

Yes. When I bought my first MX-5 eight years ago, my insurance premium was actually less than what I was paying a month before for my Mazda3! I just got a '22 BRZ yesterday because I need to haul around my grandkids sometimes, but I still wanted a sports car. We'll see what happens with the insurance, but I don't expect any surprises.

I got a 22 BRZ. Amazing car. The reason I chose BRZ over the GR86 was the 7K markup on all the 86’s in my area.

Blows my mind how many people wanna ruin this car by making it supra priced because turbo/awd. This is supposed to be a spiritual successor to the AE86 not Supra or Celica GT Four. Not to mention all the people who ask for these expensive changes end up not even buying the car. 🤦

Former RF owner now in a 2022 BRZ here. I loved the Mazda and I love this. Pick either and you can’t go wrong…but if you are over 182cm (6ft) you are actually going to fit in the BRZ. Actually had the BRZ (still completely stock) on track today and I spent 15 mins chasing two GR Yaris…and you know what? They were a tiny bit quicker on the straights but not very much. I was expecting them to run away and they didn’t.

Truck engine was a bit disrespectful, though i understood what you meant. That said, it does rev to 7500. Most cars dont rev past 6000 these days, even NA. Performance oriented competitors in this segment dont rev past 6700, not even the SI. Its a pretty healthy revvy engine.

It’s crazy they less then ten thousand of these every year, I think the peak sales hit 11K during 2016.

Quick question, I'm seeing a few KZread videos by guys talking about silicone in the pick-up tube of the engine. Potentially could be an issue. Are they using silicone instead of a gasket? That would really piss me off as this same issue happened on my 1996 Corvette where the silicone dried up and started leaking.

I just got a '22 BRZ for $32,998. There were 3 new ones left in the country, local dealer was only willing to ship one of them here, and then it was bought the next morning by someone before they could send it here. At least a 5 month wait for a '24 but I needed a car now. I bit the bullet and paid more than MSRP for a 2 year old car, but only 5700 miles, mint condition, and I couldn't be happier.

even though this has a boxer engine ... i would pick this over a miata ANYDAY. Miata's are too damn small

If you wanna buy a Cayman, there’s no substitutes if they’re charging half of the price of the authentic one lol Solutions: 1. Save money and get the Cayman. 2. Wait some time for getting a cheaper offer on this car.

Hi Mike, i mean it´s a good small relatively sporty 2 door coupe, not really up to date but the biggest issue is the price i think, it´s a little bit to high for that what Subaru offers to the customers.

You can make right turns in a Porsche

I generally prefer Subarus, but the GR86 grill looks so much better. The grill looks too goofy. Still lean toward a Miata for a long term ownership option as my last manual transmission car.

A cheap sports car. The insurance industry basically killed this category. Anybody younger will pay through the nose to own one of these I'd guess.

The ND2 Miata is more fun to drive period (especially the soft top at just 2340lbs or ~ 500lbs less than the BRZ w/ top down) so "Miata Slayer" the BRZ is not, not even remotely close. It's its nice little car but no sense in being delusional about things.

Each to their own - “more fun to drive period” is not true. The BRZ is simply different and I personally enjoy the experience more than the Miata (same way you prefer the Miata). Gotta drive and decide individually

No one should review back seats in sport coupes. That just dumb and common sense. Really!, Porsche 911, Camaro, Supra, Mustang, and all coupes cars. Next time don’t do that again
