Cons
The rear seats are cramped and not comfortable.
In my opinion, if there are provided rear seats, they should be nice enough to seat people properly, right? Seats at the back shouldn’t be added for the reason just to accommodate more people. Users have been having the same thoughts about this, too. If the space is limited, then the rear seats should’ve been just used as a cargo load instead. Nevertheless, sports cars are not for a group of people type of car.

Performance isn’t as premium as compared to others.
Don’t get me wrong, Toyota 86 is a well-performing car. However, for a sports car-classified vehicle, its engine and transmission performance are not the best of what Toyota can offer. But considering its market price, the 86 is a well-performing car.
