I am not saying this is a bad car. I had fun when I drove the civic too. But to post stuff like the above is just disrespectful to their owners.

Never said that the 86 is better than an m3. It's that a cheap simple car can provide driving enjoyment. Why do people buy an m3 anyway? Because its the most expensive 3 series? Because it has 420hp? If not for the status people buy it because it is just good to drive. Much like an 86 will be good to drive (as long as Toyota doesn't screw anything up).
There aren't many modern sports cars that are in the same segment as the 86 if you think about it... Actually there is only the miata maybe the 2.0 genesis. That along with the fwd civic si, mazdaspeed3 and gti. Go up a level and you have 370z, Evo, sti etc.
It has everything you need in a sports car with a respectable amount of horsepower and is priced in the range of most people. Definitely something to respect.
