The current hp is way enough for me. Hope they do a really nice front change and add a little more up to date specs.

So, with this news, if it is news...I have an interesting dilemma. I have told my wife that in two years time, when my car is six years old, I will probably get another BRZ and, if I can, transfer the supercharger over to the new car. I love the BRZ and don't see an alternative right now. Of course, this is all down to personal preference.

She says that she bets I will get another car, because I will be tired of the BRZ and want something different (don't go there guys, I know the same comments apply to our better halves) :)

Right now, the bet is sliding in her favor, as the new BRZ might not measure up to the current car, even with more power...

Throw on some stripes, change the front bumper and a new goofy color and call it a day.

How many cars started off as a "drivers car" and got more hard-core instead of fat and lazy? Not many, and the 86/BRZ won't be one of them.

Ah, a person of some experience has joined us... :)

Calling 'it a day' would be a complete waste of time and opportunity.. you should call it a face lifted GT86 TRD crappy thing.

As they try to make sports cars appeal to a broader market they make them broader.

Hmm, sounds like you're thinking of the Z car progression...

The only love handle a car needs is a gear stick.

Thanks for the reminder I haven't watched Police Squad in way too long.

(Edit: Yes, I know that's not from Police Squad, but it made me think of it.)
