That shooting brake is sweet. With that extra room, you could take your 4 track-day wheels & tires along with some extra tools/etc. I had a 1st gen FRS, and though I never tried fitting 4 wheels & tires into it like Toyobaru claims, if they did fit, you wouldn't get much else in there.
 
"The Yardbirds" is a throwback from the 50s that's still there.
It was Costco long before they were around. Now it's just a big hangar type building with a bunch of flea market stalls inside.

The teapot is a leftover from the teapot dome scandal, moved to it's current location in Zilla, WA.

Would you buy a GR 86 Shooting Brake?

Why isn't this called a hatchback?

The shooting brake term is dumb. It's not a wagon, as a kid that learned to drive on a buick roadmaster.

It looks cool but no more practical than 2 door coupe for a single or minimalist couple.

Wagon's I guess will always be unpopular in the US.
 
I’ve had a couple of hatchbacks and that doesn’t seem to be quite the same. Seems like the shooting break has more of a vertical back not as sloped as a hatchback.
Digging then looks of this one but the paint colour helps.
 
I think shooting brake is a marketing term now and is applied to far more cars than it has right to be.
 
From Livermore last Sunday. There were lots to choose from. Here is a small sample.

Cool stuff. Love the classic Camaro's. :love
 
Modern cars, wow. We've raced this M4 for two seasons now, including two 8 hour races. Stock engine, and it's still kicking ass.

By the way, we won the 8 hour race last year, and we won it again yesterday.

I hope you can make it out next year. Besides our cars. those GT3s are crazy. I love the Bentley, but the factory quit supporting them and they're not really competitive in the pro class anymore.
 
The new 2023 Corvette Z06 looks pretty badass. 670HP NA V8? Yes please!

I'm so full of hate for you right now Gregor! That video just had me sending off a half baked email to my dealer connection to get on the list...you owe me coffee when we can take one to coffee if I can get on the list! Let's hope the thing cools the engine better than the Gen 3's...but man that thing is pure sex. Great job on their promotional vid too.
