#321 2022 Toyota GR86 First Impressions; What's Your "Forever" Car?
Talking Cars (Video) - A podcast by Consumer Reports - Wednesdays
Categories:
This week we share our first impressions of the 2022 Toyota GR86, discussing how it performed on our track, and how it compares to the previous generation Scion FR-S, Toyota 86, and Subaru BRZ. If you had to pick one car to drive for the rest of your life, what would you choose? Our experts share their choices! Other topics include: can you replace just two tires, or should you buy four new ones each time; why turn signals can be either amber or red in North America, and which color is proven to be safer; and why some vehicles are not crash tested by IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety). ----------------------------------- Have a question for our experts?
