My 427ci Corvette Z06 meets my new BRZ!
I just picked up my new BRZ this week and figured I'd get a couple of nice shots of them together while they were both clean and polished up.
The BRZ will be my daily driver and so far I love it. I've been following this car for a while and pre-ordered mine in March. The handling and shifting live up to all the hype from the magazines. The balance when thrown hard into a turn is amazing, give the car a little throttle and back end just rotates, like a big go-kart. The interior is great with perfect seats, steering wheel and ergonomics. I can't really comment on the power as I'm still breaking it in, but it will be quick enough for a daily driver. 2700lbs+200hp is plenty fun and I've got 600hp waiting for me when I feel like driving the Vette. I'm also averaging 30mpg and see about 34mpg when cruising on the highway in 6th.

Nice shots -- I'll have to do something similar when my FR-S arrives to join my black C6 (stock though).
Looking at your modded Vette, I'll bet the BRZ doesn't stay stock for too long, even if it is the "daily driver". |

@ BillY2KFRC, Man i think if you modified your BRZ up and refined it like you did the Vette, it'd look great. If you intend on modifying the BRZ, i will be very excited to see pics.

Gorgeous! I was looking at C5 Z06s before I settled on the BRZ. I just couldn't justify daily driving one in the Northeast every day so I went with the BRZ. I'm a huge Vette fan and I hope to pick up a 06-07 LeMans Blue Z06 when the prices come down. Congrats on now owning 2 Zs!!!

I am PLANNING to keep it stock, with the exception of maybe intake/exhaust mods. But we'll see how long that lasts, lol. Quote:

Thanks, it's an ode my favorite band, Iron Maiden, and very fitting to the personality of the car as well. Thanks! Quote:
