Searced. Got basically the same stuff, except no Top Gear Magazine..
So not available in Norway..

This car will likely not impact the non-enthusiast car buying public the way the MX5/Miata did. It is not the Dodge Caravan, Toyota Prius, or whatever other cars have come along and defined/created a genre.

Please feel free to bookmark this post for 5-10yrs down the line when we can look back and see all these new small, affordable, low capacity, 2+2 coupes running around. Then I will happily retract my opinion and say I was wrong and you were right.

I contend that it will change the car world. Change doesn't mean flooding the market with a genre... rather, a return to light weight, character and fun rather than being number obsessed. It will make it's impact.

Yes, I was able to d/l this. Try again. It has the same pictures posted earlier but now in pdf format.

I'll hit a local news stand today to try my luck. Want to read the full article.

Anyone else getting a little annoyed with all these reviews that make the car out to be some kind of gift from god? I mean I like the car, I own one lol, but it's getting really annoying.

I'm only surprised because typically Clarkson wants power over finesse. I expected May and Hammond to like it, but if Jeremy likes it -- damn.

This is awesome! Can't wait to grab a copy on the newsstand to add to my collection (I'm trying to grab as many FR-S/BRZ magazine covers as I can to keep for nostalgic value). But it also makes me even more upset that they are not putting out any new Top Gear episodes until next year. I can't wait to see a full video review of my car by the Top Gear guys!

Lets hope the Christmas special involves the GT-86/FR-S/BRZ
