It looks good in person. I was thinking of getting one as an auto X car. I'm worried about the headroom. Definitely need headroom with helmet. Anyone knows how tall is that guy in that clip?

Yes, scion was there with a silver one. I can't remember if I've taken a picture of that. I'll post when i get home. I'm quite worried about the hp on this car. It may feel like a downgrade from my old S2000CR? Hope it drives better anyways.

This sounds like Manderins, not Japanese. Are you sure this is not a copycat Chinese guy pretended to be Japanese? :)

Look for the video review thread for FRS/BRZ. A few guys talk about perfect headroom good enough for helmets.

Got to love people that think Subaru revolves around the BRZ. Look at the third picture, it's a Legacy. This is just an information screen for the car maker as a whole, that includes all models. The screen in question is probably talking about torque split in the AWD system.

Honestly if I didnt purchase a Subaru many years back then I honestly would have no clue what a legacy is :lol:... i was going to buy an 05 gt wagon or 06 limited gt but decided to wait for the brz. I love legacys!

Yes, you ask and you shall recieve.

^ Do you know why the antennae is missing? I'm still puzzling over that

The base is still there so perhaps they removed it just like how they remove the shift knobs at the auto shows.

So it looks like nobody can sit inside both the BRZ and FR-S; that sucks.

Lol I feel bad for Dave who traveled up there just to sit in the car. Sucks for all who hoped to sit inside.

Actually I'm far more excited about the Dart, new Fusion, seeing the 130R, some of the P-Cars, etc. I'm so disappointed about their US Debut of these cars that I likely won't spend more than a minute or two looking at them.

Yeah but I still feel bad for those of you who traveled to Detroit to see it in person and sit inside. Sure there are other cool cars to see but sucks they won't let you sit inside the AS1's.

They're being so damned tight with info and denying buyers access that they're probably expecting to sell these things on 'test-sits' rather than test-drives... :mad0260:
