I feel unreasonably annoyed that they went for a Hyperblue that could be sitting in someone's garage instead of racking up miles for a pointless long term review, given that they already have a long term BRZ. Why not red or something not limited?

I'm not saying it's a fucking unicorn or something, but their whole goal is to run the thing all over the place day in and day out.

These cars were made to be driven, not to sit in someone's garage all day.

And I daily drive mine. You're misinterpreting my point, which is that a company car isn't appreciated like your own.

The 2017 is probably going to make me hate my 15 if they up the torque and whp.

Yes, but you're having a nice piece of cake now.

a 2016 model weights more could be caused by:
-added under panels
-added knee pads
-on board computer - star links
