Out of context quote is out of context. Here's the full quote:

For too long we've been convinced that we need cars that bully the driving experience into submission, be that with over-damped suspension or aggressively mapped turbo engines dumping peak torque in your lap from 1,500rpm. The Toyobaru gives you time and space to savour the experience, much in the way you would in a Boxster or Cayman in fact. It'll dance about on its skinny tyres when you want it to as well, which'll please the hooligans among us.

My apologies for the repost; I did not see it in the main BRZ forum threads.

How is my quote out of context? Nothing written after that quote negates that quote. It was meant to be a counterpoint to Toyota's stance that the 86 is a track day car

It's the first sentence and the first sentence of a larger paragraph with a point. You're only conveying part of it, regardless of your intention.
