For those who might be interested, the top speed on the BRZ seems to be about 142 mph.

At least one of the reviews I read (Motor Trend, maybe?) noted the top speed as 142 mph.

There are a few videos on youtube showing the same. The video of the guy on the "Autobahn" looks legitimate, but of course it's hard to tell for sure.

Calculated values:

5th gear @ 7400 rpm = 128 mph

6th gear @ 6282 rpm = 142 mph (drag limited)

Note that the above is OEM tires. Slightly larger/smaller diameter tires would change this slightly.

Sounds about right. The GTI has great low end but starts to choke up top, especially in stock form.

I have to admit that I'm losing interest in my 2013 and am looking to possibly sell it. My daily commute is rather boring and involves all straight roads that are heavily enforced so I sadly do not get to enjoy the car at all.

If anyone is wanting to see/sit in/touch the new 2015 WRX STI, there is one at the Milwaukee Auto Show. Wisconsin Center. I was there yesterday checking out the new cars. Also the new 2015 Mustang was on display, but you couldn't get too close.

I passed another Galaxy Blue BRZ on I43 SB yesterday, his driver's side LED's weren't working.

After about 18 months and 10,200 miles I traded my BRZ in last night............I have some winter rims and tires for sale!!!!!




I have a set 16 X 6.5 5-100 ET50 CB56 STEEL RIMS "without TPMS" with 205/55R16 DU WINTER SPRT 3D WHEEL. Bought from tire rack- have invoice, I bought them used from someone in Chicago I put 1500 miles on them this winter, man it was a big difference from the year before when I drove on the stock tires, the TMPS would come on only during long drive and all you have to do is check the tire with a gauge.













Looking for $350 obo...............I'm in Waukesha county!!!!!


Thanks,
-Tom
