Trolling, or dumb?  Or am I dumb for not comprehending you?  Twins= BRZ/FRS.....That's a nickname.


I guess I'm trolling then. Someone in another thread said put twins on a brz so i just assumed. I apologize and retract my statement

Now you're trolling.


The grip is meant to lack.....They PURPOSELY put those tires on because they wanted the car to slide.....Seriously, this has been discussed before.

Nothing useful out of factory?  This will be the most tuned and tracked car in years to come.....


hey guys...we are going to make a car designed to corner well......lets put some shit grip tires on it after we designed everything else to corner well.

as dumb as putting a a weak ass engine in it.

aftermarket can make any car into a great car...point is the brz in its stock form is about as appealing as a stock miata.

Sigh....

I can't win versus this troll.

Go buy a 5.0 GT, have fun with the power you can hardly use.

The Twins were NEVER meant to be fast stock.....Why can't you understand this? This car is a legacy car......The successor of the AE86...

Just remember.....most tuned and tracked within years.



In Europe, the GT86 was named the car of the year by Top Gear magazine.,[45] while Autocar named it the best driver's car,[46] and Auto Express gave it their performance car award.[47] Australia's Drive gave the 86 the Car of the Year award, Best Performance Car under A$60,000 and won the People's Choice vote.,[48] while the 86 and BRZ shared Carsguide's Car of the Year.[49] Top Gear Australia named the BRZ their car of the year.}[50] New Zealand's Car of the Year went to the 86 in 2012.[51]
In the United States, US News declared the Scion FR-S as the best affordable sports car of 2012.[52] Car and Driver named both the BRZ and FR-S as one of the ten best cars of 2013[53]
The Subaru BRZ earned the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick of 2012.[54] The Toyota-Subaru D4-S boxer engine was named one of Ward's 10 Best Engines in 2013.

I wouldn't call it slow.....Seriously, don't be arrogant.

It's not fast, and I will NEVER say it's a fast car.....But it's not slow. I don't consider 0-60 under 7 seconds to be slow....and no, I don't base all speeds by 0-60

the tires aren't all that bad. The point of the tires imo is to bring out it's full potential while still having fun.

so my opinion is aggorant but yours isnt?

7 sec 0-60 is about the same as a civic si of the same year......

both cars are factually slow compared to real sports cars. 7 is econobox territory. if it was like 5.5 i'd consider it being above average but 7 is just glorified econobox.

aka making a slow car seem fast. better throw that giant rally spoiler on it because you need the downforce because you have shit tires.

You see, we're not at the drag strip.

Speed wise, yes this does compare to an SI.....but the Twins would smoke it on the track....it's a track car.


The BRZ is an ENTRY level AFFORDABLE sports car......


Also, what's wrong with cars getting good MPG?......There isn't anything wrong with it...
