It just looks so little like the Toyota 86, and it looks like a mid life crisis version for middle aged men. Agressive car and platform, but toned down to look sedate.
I totally agree. The 86/FR-S looks supercar aggressive. Especially with the LED/HID headlamps, you know people will see it and go, "What was that? It looked fast/expensive!" (Even though it's not) But more importantly, I like the way it looks. The BRZ just looks like a somewhat sportier coupe, almost like a new muscle car. When people see it they'll go, "Hmm, that's interesting, a new Subaru."
