Which one would you choose? I would go for the Toyota, as they have more experience designing FR cars, compared to Subaru (Has Subaru ever done a FR model?) ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heelntoe 1st Gear November 18, 2011 Author Share November 18, 2011 200hp for a hi-comp NA is a good figure I guess, considering that it has to meet modern emmision regs. Hopefully toyota would produce a turbo-ed version Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoppie24 1st Gear November 18, 2011 Share November 18, 2011 i will choose Toyota if were to buy but i don have the money though. Reason? I driven a Subaru and their resale value sucks, and MI sucks big time. I am driving a Lexus now and Borneo gives much better service + resale value better and more reliable ;) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully toyota would produce a turbo-ed version Yap, but you have to rev like hell to unleash the power. IMO, a smaller engine with a turbo is a better solution. Lighter as well. You get more power from Hot Hatches, gocery getter & wagon these days. But its probably more fun on the curves, & on track. Anyway, different stroke for different folks.

Tcx607 4th Gear January 9, 2012 Share January 9, 2012 I have done my calculation on GT86. if the price is approx 180K, I will go for JDM Honda Accord Type S (142K) The JDM accord is equivalent to US 2012 Honda Civic Si with 201hp and torque. Both will have same K24 engine. This engine has good records on reliability and torqee for mid range. Red line at 7000rpm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
