Given the general rapturous reception from the media (with the exception of EVO Mag), you'd expect these to be selling like hot cakes and skidding round a corner near you, yet so far, I have only spotted one GT86, and one BRZ on the roads. Now I regularly commute into West London along the M4 and travel around Bucks, Berks, Dorset and Devon on the weekends, so I'm not exactly a hermit, but still, my GT86/BRZ count is pitiful.

Are these actually selling? Or is £25k too much for this car given it's fairly low power output and cheap cabin? It's a real shame if they're not as this is the sort of car we've been crying out for for ages.....RWD, Limited Slip Diff, great handling, affordable(ish), light weight, and pretty economical.....

Great to see quite a few PH'ers have taken the plunge. So what do you reckon, are EVO wrong and all the other mags right? or is the car good, but not quite great....?

Shame they went with chav style early 2000's Jap style clear "Lexus" rear lights.

Anyone offering these (which look so much better) as an aftermarket option yet?

I saw a black GT86 today.

I've still seen more Mclaren MP415's though in the same time frame.
MP4-12C's you mean?
