Autoexpress full review
 
Up today: only 4 stars! What happened to the missing one? Try to figure it out at:
http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/carrevi...ubaru_brz.html

Yet another review pointing out that the power level is fine. Also it's the first review I've seen that talks about ride comfort:

It has a supple ride, too, which comes as a pleasant surprise.

Same. I didn't see them write anything really negative in there?

Not a very in depth review to say the least

Give us that last star! Great review none the less. Got to love the weight being 50kg below a Caymen R.

Firstly... who cares what some journo thinks?
Secondly... Autoexpress have the reputation for being the worst of the UK car mags, if that is of consolation to those who care.

They said they weren't that impressed by they styling. That much be what they marked it down for.

Bingo! It needed leather, wood, British racing green as a color option, and rust in 2 years. :D

Why did they say the dash was not soft touch material , everywhere I read I see the dash has soft touch materials , maybe for the european models got harder plastic dashes??

Interesting... the author is Matt Davis, who also wrote the much-more-detailed autoblog review (there are photos of him in both reviews and it's definitely the same guy).
