I can't ever see myself wanting to carry more than two people and two quadriplegics! That's my regular saturday night crew, right there...

The ST is a phenomenal car—it's a practical option, and I'm really glad that it exists. Congratulations on your child-to-be, and on your beautiful car! :)

haha alright :)

I guess I had the opposite reaction. I was really excited for the ST, but I drove one last year, and doing so made me realize that I usually only carry a single additional passenger in my car at any given time, and that I don't usually put more than a week's worth of groceries or a medium-sized suitcase in the back.

*Ahem.*

Hey, man, that's fair; the market is (currently, at least) big enough for both of us.

Oh my god, what did they do to you? They converted you, didn't they? Those ZF bastards got to you. Motherfuckers. Alright, say it with me:

Carguments aside, that's an incredibly well-executed parody from jalop1991. Well done, sir or madam.

A few years back I sat down with Antony Sheriff, the former managing director of McLaren, to talk about the then-new MP4-12C. I asked him about the lack of a manual option and he told me, "The dual-clutch gearbox is so good if you want to go quickly and drive easily. If you want to drive manual, buy a vintage car.…

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?
