What I do care about is that the poll highlights the manual transmission take-rate for this car. I love it!

It really isn't an argument. This data has already been posted previously. Who cares if it is a poll or as an actual thread compiling all the data into a graph. Same darn thing. Maybe we need a new thread about a pricing poll.

Great lead in. Manual vs auto. Debate. I say manual cause that is what manly men will drive.

Wait what? That didn't make any sense.




Anyways I'll join in this little debate.

Yeah there was something like this before. That's a fact.

Yeah graphs are better than polls you guys.

And I'm ordering a limited BRZ unless something happens, regardless of trim I'll definitely be getting a manual.

Then End. :happy0180:

Limited manual... Only ordered wheel locks with it. I'll get everything else later.

You know what I wanna see? A good old pie chart. Pies are delicious and help people visualize, lol

"Limited" is definitely a misnomer in the case of this car

I guess "Premium" sort of is, too. Why not just have "Base" and "Premium"? Silly Subaru.

They might come out with a Base trim in a year or so?

The FR-S is the base trim from what I understand.

They really ought to release it or something similar under a club racer-type package, like the S2000, Miata, and Solstice did. No doubt there'll be a spec racing series for this car soon!
