Havent revved past 5k rpms so I really don't know the power that well yet. Having bought this car sight unseen, much less never having seen a single BRZ/FRS in person aside from the ATL Auto Show, all I had to go on were the video reviews and editorials that keep rolling in. Once I drove it, I understood why Top Gear Mag picked it as overall winner for their recent speed week issue against 21 other much faster, more expensive cars. It's truly a fantastic driver's car in every way. Reminds me of my first 944S in the seating position, steering feel, shifter and interior layout, and power delivery. I love it! 105 miles on the odometer so far!
