Thanks Hachi.

Thank you! Now i'm just waiting on some video reviews in English

Thank you Hachi :D it's much nicer when everything is organized

Oh ye, a le ga do

I'm glad you organized everything. Thanks alot! Saved time looking all over the place.

Thanks again Hachi. Can you make a "Thanks you Hachi" smilie so that we don't need to type this all the time? :bow:

Thanks Hachi for making it easier to keep up with all the craze!

Gotta have a Thanks button like XDA :)

Thanks Hachi for doing this! I was thinking of doing something similar but hadn't gotten a chance to get around to it. You are on top of things. :bow:

Though a quick suggestion, do you think you can list the date when the article were posted? It might make sifting through the reviews a little easier.

Thanks hachi!

Here you go. 11/30 of the "86".

Thank you. This is great

Thanks! 7 Tune article was the best.

I made a separate thread about this review (UK English). I only just saw this sticky! Sorry!

+1

And Hachi can you make another thread for videos?

Here's one from the Telegraph. High praise too!

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/...86-review.html

Good article He mentions manual transmission versus auto with paddle shift. He doesn't elaborate on his comment.. I understand it but when your going to be stuck in LA traffic half the time an auto transmission just makes sense...

You either buy the Manual for the 10% of the time you can use it, or buy the automatic for the 90% of the time you wish you had it.

another here http://www.carsguide.com.au/news-and...t_drive_review with price estimate for Australia

This review was already previously listed in the first post.

This guy called the Celica, Supra, and MR2 "wimpy imitation sports cars"

WTF?:thumbdown:

Yeah WTF. The "wimpy imitation sports car" Supra Turbo soundly beated the "real sports cars" known as the 512 Testarossa and the 911 Turbo in R&T's handling tests.

ooooops sowwy

I know I had the same reaction :bonk:

I wonder if Best Motoring will be testing this car even though they stopped making episodes...

Motor Magazine Test Drive Movie -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pTUcHaX20o

He seems to find the shifting smooth, but the clutch has no feel.

Automobile magazine has a first drive up of the BRZ:

Generally a rave but they knock the car on one characteristic I've been concerned about - steering feel from the fully electric-assisted rack.

Autoweek has a first drive review of the BRZ up:

http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2600

Very positive review on the whole, although the reviewer did not appreciate the BRZ's understeer, evident when driven at a less than balls-out pace.

The more the reviews come in the more I want to get in one!!!

That test drive in April/May is going to scare the shit out of the salesman. :bonk:

Compilation list in first post updated now with first Subaru BRZ reviews (and more 86 reviews). :w00t:

Updated with Motor Trend BRZ review.

Updated with Car and Driver BRZ review.

Added Top Gear online's BRZ review.

Sweeeett!!!!

Although, I should probably read it first...

This site is great, thank you for your dedication and hard work, it makes my day.

Car Advice 86 review added.

Cheers Hachi! The Subaruontube (video) is on the BRZ - sorry to be pedantic :scared0016:

Fixed. Thanks for the correction. :thumbsup:
