So the Toyobaru looks to be redesigned and rebuilt in the next two or three years. Will it suck less?
>>16297038
only busriders and benchracers believe toyobaru sucks.
It just needs a bit more torque with a better curve. A bit more HP would be nice, but I know they could make it good with the FA20 with the right tuning if they tried.
>>16297038
here is exactly what is going to happen with the redesign:
>lots of complicated technological interior bullshit
>50 different """sport"""" modes
>7 more horsepower
>5 more torque
>extra 400 pounds because of "muh safety"
>visibility is gone
>electric forza tier steering
>tacky & bright color choices
>pricing starts at $29k
basically they're going to ruin the simple drivers car they created for something that appeals to autistic millennials.
enjoy the 2013-2016 toyobaru while you can br/o/s

86 is literally a lego kit.
Just like mod it
You don't buy a supra and complain about the engine because everyone tightens some nuts a bit and gets 1400hp
>>16297038
It'll be redesigned like all toyota cars. Change the exterior a bit but not the chassis, change the interior a bit, keep the same engines.

>enjoy the toyobaru while you can
/o/ and other poorfags are too busy complaining about how shit it is and how expensive it is. Ignoring the fact that it actually costs less than the AE86/240SX did when accounting for inflation, and is superior in handling/power/chassis/modding potential. It isn't even heavier than the S-chassis despite being loaded with modern safety equipment.
>>16297062
it has a good crash safety rating tough
>>16297086
Good can quickly become average with how agressive the standards have become

>Change the exterior a bit but not the chassis, change the interior a bit, keep the same engines.
They already did that though.
This is gonna be a proper redesign.
>>16297038
I just want that stupid bumper to be fixed. I wouldn't mind leather seats either.
i bet the insurance will be stupid high though since I'm only 23.
>>16297154
It'll be an ugly redesign.
I don't want it to be, but Toyota styling is just horribly fucked up. Compare the 2016 FR-S to the 2017 GT86. Such small changes made a good looking car look disgusting.
>>16297165
would it be silly to expect Toyota reliability from either the 86 or BRZ?
>>16297202
They are hardly unreliable, and no worse than the average Toyota when stock. The ones that are have been poorly modded or boosted to ridiculous levels.
>Against my expections, the Toyobaru will recieve a 2nd generation (or at least a big facelfit)
>my guess is they replace the 2 liter with the 1.6 tarbo and update the interior (i like it a lot, but it's probably to plain for others)
>maybe a convertible?
>prices for used toyobarus will hopefully drop
Not even mad. Especially about the last bit
>I already have the steelies from the picture lying around in my garage, they were my old Impreza's winter wheels
