5 Things I Love About the 2022 GR86 

Just want to let you know how much the 86/BRZ community appreciates the channel, Kevin! The new products series is a great way to advertise products we want because we can actually see them on the car and the how-to guides are always useful! Thank you!

So happy Toyota/Subaru is still wowing us with some amazing sports cars. I hope to pick up a used GR86 in a few years if I'm lucky. Happy with my 2016 FRS RS 2.0 for now! Still can't wait to see what you guys do with this one.

Toyota played their cards right, they gave us bare minimum, and then give us their all it seems. Definitely bought me. I’m getting a gr86 this summer and I cannot wait

I love bright coloured cars, I think they brighten up everyone's day!

It may be a small thing, but I really like when people actually call it the eight six.

I was really into the Hyundai i20 N but after learning about this car and the BRZ I'm in love. Just waiting for them to show up in Europe, specifically Greece.

Awesome man. This is my very first time experiencing RWD, and the 86/BRZ platform, and I am so freakin excited to learn more about it!

Well done video!

Well done !

The Neptune blue in my option is the best color between the BRZ/GR86 options, yes it’s bold so it’s but for everyone but I love it. Thanks for the video.

Can’t wait to get my BRZ in April!

I completely agree with you. I love my GR86, and I don’t make any modification because for me it’s perfect as it is. Low weight, perfect balance, the feeling and enough power to enjoy in a daily driver at this price… there is no other car on a market that can beat GR86, IMO. Great video as usual. Thx

I have one one order here in Australia. Very excited to to get in & play around with car when they do finally arrive!

Can't wait to see my own Neptune Blue... In Poland, Toyota dropped only 50 (!!) GR86 and I'm one of the luckiest here. Sold in 35 seconds!! So weird to be a part of this craziness :D Thx for videos, cuz now I know as much as possible things about my incoming car ;)

I like the effect of the lights when they light up, but I will always have a soft spot for round tail lights on a sports car. In a few years I will get one when the bugs are worked out. If I don't end up ls swapping my frs. And everyone always says more power. It is an awesome car though.

The New Toyota GR86 is so dope. im considering this car but im more curious for the future cars, Mazda new inline 6 has my attention and more potent GR corolla. we will see this 2022 year, congrats on your GR86 . great video

God i wish we had them here in AUS already. Ive preorded that exact colour and cant wait. Wake up every day to see if theres been any news as to the release date lol

"... hour-long nap in that hammock of a torque-dip..." - priceless!

love mine GR 86 in steel.

The car and color is gorgeous

Stunning and amazing vehicle! With the money! GR86! ☝️☝️😎😎😎

I literally just got my FRS a few months ago and now I wanna upgrade😭😭😤😤

I have to agree. The new car looks better inside and out. The performance is as good as the older cars with full bolt ons and tune, if not better right out of the box. These things on E85 will give supercharged gen 1 cars a run for their money.

Personally 1 thing I like about the gr compared to the previous generation is the blind spot signal monitoring on the mirrors. Not sure why the previous generation didn't have them as I have a 2017 brz limited and didn't come with it. Maybe someone will find a way to make them work for the older.

A very special car, especially when you consider the price. Take this all day over the Supra. Much better design, and the purity of a naturally aspirated engine. Wow.

I had a 2014 TRD loved it and I kept it stock wished that they had carried over the quad pipes on the 2022 model that the TRD had would make such a difference

The primacys are still offered for the base model or 17s, have it on mine

I told myself that I would never buy a brand new car, but I think I'm gonna have to pick up a 2023 version. Hopefully they roll out the brembo brakes and special editions (which we know are both coming later).

I love this car! If the Z doesn't work out I'm definitely going for this....neptune blue or red.

yo when do you guys get the JDM side markers in stock.. I ordered two weeks ago and hasn’t shipped

are the first gen brz ac and heat knobs etc able to go into the frs?

I feel like previous gen headers are probably a tad bit small for the increased displacement of the new gen. I’d love to see dyno numbers between a new gen aftermarket header and a previous gen to see if there’s a difference

When will some tunes be available for new GR86? I think it's all around better car than the last gen and it hurts to say because I own a 2016 frs

How does the power and torque compare to the previous gen with headers and a tune?

I love this car so much but how do I clean the engine bay??? Please shed some light!!!!

That spinning GR logo on the gauge... can you change that in settings? I saw the protype has the round 86 logo, while some videos have it start as the GR then changes to the 86 at the end before the gauges pop up. Just asking because that spinning GR logo is a step backward and quite an unnecessary change from the original 86 logo.

I want to swap the motor from the new to the old. I wonder how long it will be before we see that

I ended up having an accident in Feb in my FR-S totalling it. It was full bolt ons with e85 and manual. That car felt great and had a flat power band like the new car. Fast forward to April 30 and I got pretty lucky to pick up a premium manual GR86. I always said I'd never buy a new car but this market made it actually make sense. I'm surprised how much difference the torque made. Even with full bolt on/e85, my FR-S did not feel like it could keep up with the Gr86 and I haven't even redlined it yet.

I was seriously considering purchasing a used 2014 to 2016 Cayman S or base manual 6 cylinder model. And the prices are 40 k to 60 k depending on mileage ect. But after watching your new GR 86 videos I'm really digging the GR 86 it's very well balanced. I have no desire to track the Cayman, so the base model would check all the boxes for me, because of that I truly believe the GR 86 also will check all the boxes. Maybe in the future can you compare the GR 86 to a used base Cayman. I like your style I sub your channel.

Neptune blue....gold, white or black wheels man I keep going back and forth what color is best

waiting to see how to eliminate / mitigate that torque dip

anyone by any chance know if the new gen seats fit in the first gen/are plug and play?

You can drive your sports cars right now? Man I still got snow around my place

Nice car but does it come with a sunroof?

Love everything about it except for the slow allocations lol- still waiting

Monthly payment?

The only thing I don't like about my new GR86 (Halo White, I named her Angel) is I don't want to get out of it!

They didn't just minimize the torque dip in the 2022 model, if you notice, it hits peak torque before the dip as well.

I can't wait to pick up my new gr86 on Friday. I imagine that the 2023 or 2024 will have some kind of special edition that will make me trade my 2022 in. But man, it's the perfect budget sports car. Yeah, there are a lot of things that could be a lot better. But at the price, I feel like this car can't be beat

500 miles Into owning mine and my auto tensioning pulley is knocking

I want to see people start adding boost. We need to see if the FA24 is more stout.

Toyota and Subaru did a great job on the car. However, I still prefer the looks of the first gen....

I've seen one guy who said the Dyno numbers increased with the GR86 with higher mileage. Anyone else see or hear of this?

I'm so torn between the Halo White or Neptune Blue for when I order mine in a few weeks

does the '22 brz come in that color? i think they call it hyper blue

I would like to see a shootout between a stock gr86 manual vs. an automatic with a stage 2 transmission upgrade.

Kev from subispeed!

I wish you could say that earlier 😅 that stuff from first gen fits in this car Cause i sell my GT86 for the GR86 I could have my exhaust hehe

If it's your belief that Subaru underreported how much power this car makes, what is your best estimate as to what the true horsepower and torque really are?

Gr86/ BRZ... One of few modern cars that I actually like... Might be cause they are basic, the way cars used to be, and should be. Engine, gearbox, wheels, no gimmicky bs🤪

I love it. I hate the dashboard. It's to square and blocky. The dash of the old car was better in my opinion. It had lines that were curvy and pleasant to the eyes. I also like the seats better in the old car. But those are my only two gripes

I would love to get tthis car, Germany only has 2 years for us to buy it until it fails the new regulations.

I want.

I like pretty much everything about it except for the rear end. Maybe with some areo mods it'll look better but stock just isn't to my liking.

Wait the duckbill don’t come with the base?

There’s also the trueno blue that’s the darkest of the three blue colors available.

First. Nice review! Great looking car. Wish it was turbo, though.

I'm 40 years old and love cars like these but just from ppl's opinions am I too old for this car? It would be a fun car and not my daily

does the car require premium gas?

Wait...the S2000 is old school?! god damn I'm old!

Geaux Tigers

Nakayama AE86

The duck tail isn't actually "perfect fitment". One of my friends has a GR86 Premium, and the duck tail is sliiiightly off center. If I had a more severe OCD it would drive me crazy. I'm sorry if I just ruined your car for you 😂

i absolutely do not like the new body style of this newer 86/ brz but one thing is for sure, if i ever blow my engine im going to figure out how to put that new 2.4L boxer in my GT86

I love the upgrades in everything but the ugly back side. Maybe Seibon or some other company can create a trunk where the license plate indent is move back to the trunk instead like in the original ft86. Bottom rear indent can be covered up and at least provide a cleaner look rather than that massive indent. New taillights should pop-up eventually and can provide a better look as well.

Idk I kinda like the BRZ a little more.

THE gr86's interior is somehow similar to a porsche

I don't understand why all the reviews on the GR86 and new BRZ completely disregards the 2017+ models of the Toyota 86... We all had keyless entries, with the map light that fades in, and we all had the similar climate controls. Literally the best thing about this car is the new 2.4L engine and design with functional vents.

Roll Clones

38k EUR in Germany and that's cheap in EU, the French get royally shafted on this one. I hate this world..

Wish they gave it either paddle shifters like they did with the A90/A91 Supra or autoblip built in.

The audacity of this dogwater company is pitiful. For those that don't know, Kevin Vo was fired from FT Speed on 12/13/2022 in a disgusting way. Buy your parts from somewhere else than FTSpeed or Subispeed folks; support somewhere that supports its employees and treats them with respect. An 8-year, passionate, face-of-your company employee deserves the respect and courtesy of at least a conversation being had about any conflicts of interest or things that would necessitate termination of employment if continued. To outright fire him out of the blue without giving him a heads up or notice that something he is doing/saying will not fly and deny him the ability to make an informed decision on what his options are going forward reflects poorly upon FTSpeed/Subispeed. In a game where you just play the middleman, I will gladly take my business elsewhere to some other middleman that isn't FTSpeed/SubiSpeed; there are a plethora of other options out there that can access more or less the same catalogue of items. FTSpeed/Subiespeed did Kevin Vo dirty, when Kevin Vo was a SIGNIFICANT part of why the company is as successful as it is today - hopefully yall's marketshare takes a deserving hit and Kevin lands somewhere that will treat him better and be worthy of the good-business his passion and efforts bring forth. If you enjoy content like this, look up and support Kevin Vo's personal youtube channel, where I'm sure he'll be continuing to put out excellent, valueable content without getting screwed by SubiSpeed.

I’m pretty sure the Toyota makes more power than the Subaru.

Love everything about the engine just hate the body 🤮

The BRZ and the GR86 starting price is too high, it should be 24k.

This ugly screen in the middle of Carr with cheap plastic is so dam ugly i newer see so ugly cheap plastic interior design./..especial around screen....many 5x cheaper cars have much nicer interior...it looks outdated like made 20 year ago.... designer was moron...

I wish my BRZ was at least 8 inches longer so the back seats are somewhat useable
