I was just wondering which one people like better
 
The FR-S, it's nice to have a left hand drive version.
 
I prefer the upmarket look of the GT-86
 
GT-86. It's RHD, and looks a bit more "expensive" from the front to me...
 
GT86 for looking at FRS for driving.
 
FR-S, because it doesn't have the stupid front license plate.
 
I would vote for Scion if a poll would be here.
 
I still don't get the RHD :(
 
Well I drove the toyota but it kept my interest for maybe 2 races, so far I've put 212 miles on the Scion so it's the winner in my book!
 
I guess the American Marine Corp will love the Scion

Paints like "Ultramarine" and "Firestorm" -

"Thing of Beauty." To quote drill sargeant nasty. (This is for fighting; this is for fun)

I myself like the Hachiroku but only as I've only driven that in anger - Trouble with GT is too many cars.
 
Between those two I'll take the Toyota GT 86 but that is just until we get the Subaru BRZ.
 
I like both cars equally, but as a Brit I'd pick the GT86 because it's RHD. :lol:
 
@Diogo: RHD = Right hand drive, "british style," the driver sits on the right side, instead of the correct side.

There's a tuner shootout on the tuner forum for the various versions of the 86, check it out.
 
Right hand drive = right side of the car. Left hand drive is not on the right side of the car and therefore is wrong hand drive ;)
 
Both cars are the same for me, RHD, LHD, I can drive them just fine, nothing lost there. But I like the Japanese counterpart more, Toyobota, plus in real life, it has better interior with dual zone auto climate control and start button, Scion only have the crappy ancient AC knobs and turn key ignition :(
 
I like the Gt-86 better cuz the headlight has a strip of led lights in top
 
They are the same. Who cares?
 
They are the same. Who cares?

This. They are the same apart from different fog lights and license plates.
 
Scion FR-S only have turn key ignition and oldie AC control knobs, I don't know if it can be bought with start button ignition and dual zone digital auto climate control like Toyota GT86. GT86 has a multi function display at the center, while FR-S has none. The seats are not the same as well I presume, the GT86 looks to be more stylish or elegant, correct me if I'm wrong ...

Toyota GT 86

Front seat looks cheaper compared to GT86.

FR-S because the headlights look better, and the speedometer is in MPH.
 
FR-S. Saw one the other day and looked marvelous in that red. That's the only Scion I wouldn't mind driving or owning. All the other ones are horrendous.
 
Toyota GT86 since we don´t have Scion in Europe. If we have, still i´ll go for the Toyota.
