Boo.

Okay, well, I don't mean to belabor the point, but...have you driven a Toyobaru? There's a very good reason why that's a staple of arguments made in defense of the car.

10/10 Agree. I own a BRZ, and I don't care that it gets smoked at stoplights by V6 Accords. It feels fast all the time, and that's why I bought it.

I think it's important to bear in mind the fact that Subaru is a company the size of a shoebox. No, seriously, they sell about 750,000 cars per year (you'll find them under "Fuji" at that link). They are outsold by Mitsubishi, Mazda, and a company called "Changan" that I'd never head of until now. The only brands you…

So you're telling me that, if Subaru put 300bhp in the BRZ (for $33k, probably), every "Moar Power" troll on the internet would suddenly go out and buy one the next day? No. No, I don't think so.

I don't understand how people can complain so vocally and constantly about Subaru giving us an "underpowered" BRZ. We all demanded a low, lightweight, low-power sports car; we demanded this for ages. Subaru completely redesigned their FB engine specifically for this car, they made a bespoke chassis, they endlessly…

You're too kind! Normally I'm not much for cat-related giffery, but that's pretty splendid!

Thank you :)

Woah, there. That's a lot of hate. I'm not saying you don't have a reason—because, god knows, objectification was degrading and wrong long before it started happening to men; it has always mattered, and some of us are paying attention to that fact. But let's take a step back.

So, I agree with you that it's overhyped. It would be incredibly difficult for a car that was as anticipated and hyped as the GT86 NOT to be overhyped.

...but seriously, though, you're entitled to your opinion about the GT86. Care to elaborate?

Totally agree. I own a BRZ, and it is really and truly old-school.

I would give MANY more fucks about this car if it came with manual shifting. Call me when that's an available option.

BRZ. Works GREAT as a bachelormobile, as long as you don't live on a steep hill or anything.

Like a boss.

Love this.

This from the country that has an extra "u" in words like "neighbor" or "color" and then DOESN'T EVEN PRONOUNCE MOST OF THAT LAST SYLLABLE.

Seriously, what is the deal with having a stroke whenever you say "-our."

Agreed. It's fast (because, let's face it, you're a dude); it's reliable and cheap to insure (which is good if you only have one income in the house!); and you can fill the back with bricks and mortar, or a deer carcass, or some grits (because, again, we're dudes—we often haul stuff for basically no reason at all).

AAAAAAAH!!! KILL IT! YOU'VE GOT TO KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!

I watch this video and just think to myself, "Oh god, some idiot stanced a perfectly good E46 M3 and now it's ruined."
