Very exciting stuff! What's interesting is the little spot in the grille for the GR badge. It also confirms that it's going to look similar to the BRZ.

Not a bad look compared to the BRZ.

I much prefer Toyota’s front bumper over Subaru’s

its not similar its very different

The intake are more different this time.

Toyota offer more airflow, but the subaru (in my opinion without actually seeing the GR86 put together) is a bit more interesting.

Yes they flipped the grille like the first gen vehicles but overall I don't think there's going to be major differences between the two cars.

The BRZ looks a tiny bit upscale and more emotional, basically what you'd expect for more money.

So the mule we saw a month or so prior to the November 18th BRZ unveiling was apparently the 86. Interesting. I would have thought that the 86 would have had a little bit more in common with the Supra. Actually it seems Toyota is aligning it more with the GR Yaris in styling I think.

Its a cut and past job in that magazine - its just a press BRZ, recolored and rebadged as GR86 with a couple of fake vents (on the page we cant see) rear vents.

I would say its an excellent example of how Toyota should design it after seeing what the BRZ is like.

Based on the hood and sides that line work and overall aesthetic makes much more sense. I guess I can hold onto some hope that the gr86 will actually look like that.
