You totally get it Dadhawk!

It's not about the "numbers". So many people are obsessed with 'the numbers', 0-60, 1/4 mile times, lap times around the Nurburgring, horsepower, etc. etc. etc. Most of...

MomHawk is very wise. Everyone should have a red Mustang convertible at least once in their lives.

Yes, of course you're right. I forgot about the Mustang (duh, I have a Mustang in my garage, but the hard-drive access in my aging 60-something brain doesn't work so well anymore). I somehow don't...

Most of the malaise era cars were pretty miserable mechanical abominations, but at least they had some quirky personality (including the Mustang II).

If the car won't be sold in Europe, then it's even more amazing Subaru and Toyota spent the money to develop the car just for the U.S. (and presumably Japanese) market. They really aren't going to be...

I'm completely with you on all your points. Like you, I have to wait and see (and of course drive!) the car in person. But so far, it looks like all the expectations, hints, spy shots, previews, and...

Ahhhhhh but the real creativity (and nimble flexibility of youth) comes if you can figure out how to do it with seats that don't recline flat.

I can personally confirm the possibility in a Karmann Ghia (at least in the shape I was in back in the early 1980's).

But I think the K-G has a more spacious interior than the BRZ, at least in...

Do you perhaps have data to confirm that it's possible?

(It's impossible for me with my creaky body)

Thanks!

The first line in the first post is absolutely right - "Short answer - You can't. It's impossible."

At my age, with my increasingly creaky bones and lack of flexibility, I don't think I'd survive having sex in a BRZ (but at least I'd die smiling...).

It looks like we're going to have to fight for her (or maybe a race in our cars would be more appropriate).

An enlightened man! True enthusiasts don't care what other people think about your car. The only thing that matters is what you think of it.

I would absolutely LOVE a targa BRZ!!!!

Whatever the new BRZ/86 might be, I think it will be 3-4 years before we see it. That seems to be about how long it takes to develop a new model and introduce it, from any manufacturer. If Toyota and...

I completely agree with you!

HKz, you are absolutely right. A turbo BRZ/86 would decimate Supra sakes, and make that car irrelevant. As much as we would love it, there’s no way Toyota will allow...
