Toyota GR86 vs Scion FR-S

The 2023 Toyota GR86 is a love letter to performance enthusiasts everywhere. As the majority of the industry moves towards less connection to the road, the GR86 remains firmly planted, with just the right amount of technology to keep you informed, but not so much that it detracts from the driving experience.

As many automakers (including Toyota) look toward electrification and automation to change the way that people get around, sporty coupes like the GR86 are going to become increasingly rare. In fact, the ever-risk-averse Toyota shared responsibility for this car with Subaru, which sells the same car as the BRZ.

Verdict: The 2023 Toyota GR86 delivers delightful performance in a stylish and inexpensive package. For shoppers looking for a fun car (and who don't need to cart around many passengers), it's a great option in an ever-shrinking sports-car market.
