The Subaru BRZ is, for all intents and purposes, exactly the same as the 86 minus some styling changes, but those looking for a more hardcore experience should choose the Subaru and its track-ready tS model.
The Fiat 124 Spider and Mazda MX-5 Miata are also a pair of platform-mates, and offer top-down driving fun in two slightly different flavors.
Both the Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang are arguably more sports cars than muscle cars, and with turbo-4 engines equipped, they’re lighter and more balanced than ever.
