My old car goes on Monday and I'm looking for a replacement. I'm pretty certain the replacement is going to be a gt86. I've been looking at the Blue edition cars with the performance pack. Is the performance pack cars worth seeking out? There's a few for sale, but obviously a lot less than standard cars, so choice is rather limited.

They do seem to be a rare option - what else is in the pack other than the big Brembos?

(eg. typing 'Brembo' into Autotrader shows only one of the 113 GT86s - and that car seems a similar price to other examples of the same age)

It was just brakes and suspension for the Performance Pack, which was available on the Blue Club Series models only.

"The optional Performance Pack delivers a more focused drive with the introduction of a Sachs-tuned suspension upgrade, with Sachs Performance dampers, and larger Brembo brakes that give both increased stopping power and improved pedal feel. To accommodate the striking, large red Brembo calipers, new-design 17-inch black alloy wheels are fitted."

All comes down to the price and whether you like the spec (colour?). Personally would recommend for a regular model, and then some coilovers and 08+ STI brembos which are the same as PP. Have them installed on mine.
