this car is much more fun than any mustang or camaro.....

For every non informed person in this thread....... read reviews, watch videos.

AS for the GPS comment......the BRZ's main competitors don't include them standard and are already priced less than some of it's competitors .  the BRZ is ahead of the game.

And it is NOT the quickest car for under $25....But this car isn't about speed and EVERY review will tell you that.  It's commonly compared to a poor man's Porsche

I'll be placing my order when the 2014 models are available.

Define fun. Sliding through a corner with 400+ HP seems way more fun to me.

on a similar note, that video is pretty entertaining ^

Like I said , watch the brZ review videos and read.


In most cases, you can't use your 400+hp cars in practical situations.


There's a mustang vs brZ video, watch that.

But then you have the Camaro SS & New Mustangs, etc. right around the corner @ $30K


You have the v6 verision which get outperformed or outperforms the brz by the slimest of margins
And that's another 5k

And everyone and their mom has a mustang

You can't compar it to the 5.0 costing like 40k

They should have at least put a turbo in the BRZ, I mean it looks hot and I really am thinking about putting a 10k down payment on one but I'm debating if I should.
I want a car that looks fast and lives up to it for that price, not just one-sdied.

For 25k it lives up to the hype it's a quick car and a lot of fun from the look of things
like he said above how often are you really using that 400hp
Wait for the sti version to see how they plan on pumping more hp out of it

There isn't a stock turbo because there is literally no more room under the hood

aren't they thinking about making a STI version for the brz? if so that would be pretty sexy

I too wish they would throw a turbo on it.

Anyone else heard rumor that they are going to try and push more horsies out of the stock brz engine?

Subaru has already stated that a turbo version will not be released, they want to keep this NA.

They have also stated that a faster version is likely to be released with upgraded exhaust and other tuning.

Sti concept models are out but nothing is official.

After market turbos will be available

You won't seee this all over the place because it's a tight production


Read people, it's not that hard

Umm ive already seen a few of them running around... Starting to think the "tight production" is more hype than anything
