Here is the slide right after that one, with the cures for all the problems in the above slide

Z.Tune · 12-04-2011, 04:15 PM

oh yea, just one more little turbo will be perfect

One silde is what they didn't want, the next slide is what they must include.

I'd say that's nice music to drive by ... calm... relaxing....as in STIG music

Moderation in all things can provides best advantage. No need to go overboard... Low power turbo for low end grunt, top end speed, and since when do hi-grip tires weight more????

Yep! That's some new information! Good selection for the gauges too. I was fearing a stupid clock, voltmeter and maybe then a useful oil pressure gauge like so many other manufacturers have done before.

Reminds me of the Celica, looks wise, which I don't like but to each his own. Perhaps the BRZ is more aimed at people like me. The gauges are really nice, wish more cars had that info available to the driver.

Wow, telescoping wheel! Didnt think theyd do that in a car this small!

There was a thread about it on the forum. someone was also argueing the FR-S didn't have it, but I guess we will need to wait to find out... I don't see why it wouldn't, but that's just me

OlegOdin · 12-04-2011, 07:03 PM

Please tell me there will be a radio delete/gauge package as shown at roughly 2:45.

Robert Fahey · 12-04-2011, 07:15 PM

Considering the music, this should have been narrated by Mr. Rogers.

But all the better to hear the car.

This along with part II should be required by all new members before they are able to post. Great vid about the meaning behind the car and why it is what it is.

Wow, you must not enjoy classical music.

The car's styling is based on the elegance of the styling of the previous generation. The music is elegant to bring that out. You want rock punk music? Watch the Scion videos.
