Favorite thing about the BRZ/FRS?
What's all of your favorite thing about the BRZ/FRS?
We've gotten the chance to mess around with the FRS Release Series 1.0 a bit, what a great car, definitely a head turner. We're lucky enough to be able to have this at SEMA as well. Anyone going? Visit us at booth 12033 in the North Hall! |

The interior plastics.
No wait. The insane power. No wait. Ok seriously. I just love the whole package. Looks pretty. Handles great. Inexpensive. Warrantied. Aftermarket support. I think I like the front fenders and low aluminum hood best. And the "double bubble" canopy. :-)

The looks.
I'm a simple guy. I enjoy the envious looks, the double takes, the pictures, the gawking.

Absolute one favorite thing about this car?
The simplicity, pure focus, and thrill of driving a sports car at its finest.

The handling. Pure and simple. Of course those gorgeous lines certainly help.

Simplicity, although I worry in back of mind about other peoples DI issues and such.
After that, the aftermarket. Before this car I was researching others and other platforms were out for years have less aftermarket than this car had at launch.

The seating position and seats are the standout item for me.

Predecessor of the Trueno
Inexpensive head turner Could use more power, but like the reviews say, its a fun little piece of machinery. Go kart. |

I did a 460 mile day trip on some of the most beautiful and fun mountain roads in Washington State. I outran a gentleman in an E92 M3, I averaged over 30 mpg, I grinned like a buffoon while attacking mountain roads, and sat in quiet contentment on the highway slogs.
After almost 10 hours in the car that day, by the time I got home, I didn't want to get out. Last edited by GotMunchies?; 10-22-2014 at 01:54 PM. |
