My brz thread is legendary B)

Back to this topic, lots of frs dick sucking going on here.

the twins have good body designs, and I agree that in years to come theyre gonna be every tuners dream, however for what you get from the factory is pure shit. They shoulda added more power. 7 seconds for a 0-60 is fucking horrible. As sub said if they had it down to 5.5 id be very impressed.

As far as a performance car, unless you throw a big turbo on it, its slow however you look at it, and comparing it to a new 2014 v6 mustang is just absurd, the mustang has 100+ hp and a shit load more trq that makes up more than enough for the weight difference.

Give the car another 5 years and I think itll be better suited for comparisons against the better cars in its category.

In order for Toyobaru to achieve said performance numbers.....they would have to change exactly what the car is intended to be.....

It has been officially announced that they intend on increasing the HP amount by upgrading the exhaust/intake from factory. It's clear that this car is NOT for power hungry drivers and it was never intended to be that.

And......there aren't many cars in its category at all.... A V6 mustang is not in the same category as a BRZ, but it's used to compare because there isn't much out there to compare. Chevy, Nissan, possibly Honda, Ford have all hinted to producing a toyobaru competitor.

used LS3 Corvettes can be had for around 30k, LS2 vettes for around $25-27k. Test drive one, then forget all this brz/mustang nonsense

Miata
S2000
Genesis

The Mustang is a clear hybrid.... It's coined "pony"/muscle/sports

Nissan will soon put out either a silvia successor or a, as they quoted, a "smaller Z"

Toyota should've just manned up and said fuck subaru. They should've had the Fr-S/gt86 the new supra. Bring back a revamped 2jz and put dicks in mouths bruh. A 2jz swap gt86 would be so dope.

Fucking brz thread.

All I know is that brz > all
And that there is no reason, just cuz brz

And sorry mr Canada, but you cannot get a new 2014 OTD for 28 and change. Maybe a 2013, but not with TTL. Most base models start around 30 and premiums 35

OP you really just need to drive cars and figure it out for yourself
