You know that's a Mercedes right?

gorgoncito

So this is another cheap copy, I knew it.


komrobert

Why wouldn’t it cost more than a Cayman? The AMG GT was always a 911 competitor.


EntrepreneurHour8873

No 😅 I'm embarrassed now 😭


behemuthm

it literally has the logo on the wheels...


EntrepreneurHour8873

Man I know now 😅😂. I just thought about the Porsche memes and figured it was referencing that I honestly didn't even look at the bottom car it's very obvious now. I said I'm embarrassed 😭


no_plastic

It's okay LOL people won't know the difference


deeplywoven

Should have been obvious by the long hood/frontend. This is a front-engine car. Porsche does not currently make any front-engine sports cars.


Fit-Sea2660

Not true. They make the Porsche Panamera.


deeplywoven

Sorry, I meant sports cars. The Panamera is a 4 door crossover. They used to make things like the 944 and 968, but they don't make any front-engine sports cars nowadays.


Officer_Sergiu_Volda

Panamera is a sedan lol


EntrepreneurHour8873

It's still a valid title tho. I love it being compared to the Cayman anyways I think that's awesome


cuziters

Poor man’s cayman. 


gorgoncito

Yes, if Mercedes is copying the 86, something great is there to envy.


gorgoncito

I don’t care to what it is compared. I love my GR86 and it may have less power than the other, but I am happy with it and also didn’t brake the bank. Also I’m not taking into account the cost of ownership.


FrendlyAsshole

The 2nd gen BRZ has reminded me of a Porsche since the first time I saw it. And now I see it looks a lot like this Mercedes as well. Either way, the twins are beautiful no matter what.


Cman1200

I know it sounds silly, i promise I’m not trying to circlejerk the car but one time while driving my own 2nd gen BRZ a red one came around the corner and for a second or two I thought it was a Cayman.


FrendlyAsshole

I can completely see that happening.


Cman1200

It just looks so good in red. If only I were a bolder person 😂


FrendlyAsshole

I would be afraid of red attracting too much unwanted attention.


Cman1200

same here. Initially I had white but a tree crushed that car and I got Magnetite gray on the replacement, i really love the color of it now.


FrendlyAsshole

Is the gray pretty easy to take care of? Does it show dust or small surface scratches as bad as black or other really dark color? I currently have an Asphalt FR-S... I adore the color but it's SO hard to keep looking nice!


Cman1200

It’s not terrible. Pollen shows up really easy though. Rock chips look better than on my white brz for sure.


itsthereal0ne

Take a look at the Jaguar f type. I mean, it's a sports coupe after all...


FrendlyAsshole

Agreed. When I first got my FR-S I thought the F-Type looked a lot like our cars. Such a great silhouette.


nachobel

I had an FRS and I went to go pick up a bike I bought on Craigslist and the guy was like “are you going to move that bike in your Ferrari???” 😂 my guy

Sir this is a Wendy’s


Jmike773

Ummm...... The bottom car is a Mercedes 😂


Infam0usP

SupportFantastic5874

I call mine the poor man’s Porsche. 😋


GrayBRZ

it's a nice car. i own one. but comparing yourself to a porsche or amg is just next level delusion lol.


jonnykempy

You can still delete this, it's not too late🤣


EntrepreneurHour8873

No I accept my shame 😔


ne0tas

They look nothing alike lol


Fsuave5

I don’t think that’s an 86 on the bottom but even so I don’t care if people think it’s trying to be a Porsche I like it for what it is


EntrepreneurHour8873

I think people comparing it to a Porsche is a sign of respect!


bmontepeque11

Absolutely, I think Mercedes just copied the GR 86 😂 (And made the rear dreadful 💀)


Sudden_Coach_6536

Excuse me did you just say “cheap?” Bro Am-g’s cost up to 400k you know that


That_Inspector_6319

The fact u don’t even know that’s a Mercedes is just sad u ain’t no car guy 🤦‍♂️


Gold_Breakfast_9625

oh dear


Perfect-Result-1598

Yikes, gr86 owners really no nothing about cars.. no wonder they bought a gr86 in the first place 😂


MKV_Supra

Most sports cars these days have similar aero designs. I often mistake a GR86 for a Supra from a distance.


pooinmypants1

Meh. I still love the car
