Hello all,
I am off to buy a "new" used car and I am currently looking at a Civic Si or a Scion FRS (both 2016ish).
I know this topic has been covered before but I am asking more specific questions.
I was actually leaning heavily towards the Civic given it's driveability, creature comforts, reliability and turbo power.
I also like the FF layout given that all of my road racing (autox/rallyx 10 years ago) had been done solely on the FF layout.
But now I'm hearing about the electronic handbrake and the lack of ability to do left foot braking on these vehicles. I did discover another thread where an individual claimed the pedal dance would remove the Brake Override System. Can anyone confirm on that? (https://www.civicx.com/threads/left-foot-braking.42572/)
I am going to be road testing these vehicles soon but I don't think they would appreciate me doing the pedal dance and attempting to see whether that allows left foot braking.
Did any of these factors make you lean towards the 86/FRS/BRZ?
