I have found the answer to all of the complaints!
 
I have found the answer to all the complaints about the BRZ and FR-S. This car ticks all the boxes:

Needs more power/forced induction. This car I found has a supercharged engine that makes 333hp/325tq officially, and has shown to actually make more.

Cricket noises from HPFP. No Crickets under this hood.

Lacks AWD. It has one of the most advanced AWD systems you can buy with a nice 40/60 split that allows for power-oversteer.

Crude suspension with bad camber curves. It has a multi-link suspension both front and rear for the best camber retention.

Interior quality is lacking. It has one of the best interiors short of a hyper-luxury car.

Rear seats have no leg room. It has enough leg room for an adult in the rear with adequate headroom.

Too much cabin noise. It is very quiet, allowing for moderate conversation at highway speeds.

Poor quality head unit/Nav. It has a Nav and Multi media unit that is responsive, intuitive, and even has Google Earth overlays and it's own Data Connection with Wi-Fi hotspot.

This car also maintians the sleek coupe look with clean lines, long hood, and short trunklid that the twins have. The interior features sporty bolstered seats like the twins, and they're even finished in Leather/Alcantara like the BRZ Limited. Bi-Xenon HIDs, LED DRLS and tail-lights, and other features found the BRZ Limited are included as well.

AND, for those bemoaning the cancelation of the GT85 convertible, this car has a drop-top version as well!

This car has everything the nay-sayers want:

I give you, the Audi S5. If someone has a list of complaints about the twins, they only need to be pointed here. This "fixed" BRZ will only cost them twice as much and an additional 1200lbs, but it will have every issue covered.

The only "question" above I see as valid to my own experience is power (I came from an s2000). Which I resolved quite quickly on my own vehicle. So what your telling me is that this four door wonder is our cars superior competitor? I think you sir bought the wrong car. Lol

I love the S5 and RS5. If they dropped 1500 lbs. off it and made it RWD, it would be very close to my ideal car at the moment.

Congrats on the car btw!

..from someone with two cars. Might want to check your privledge before complaining about someone else's.

First World Problems indeed...

My post was about the impracticality of meeting everyone's demands about the twins. I suggest you re-examine why you read into it what you did and why you felt the need to reply as you did.

I owned an A4, 2.8 quattro for several years...loved that car for what it was. But if I recall, the quattro splits 60/40 front to rear. Has this changed?!

actually theres 4 cars parked here and a bike, none of which will ever have a thread dedicated to them,

my post was about the blah blah is awesome blah blah blah starting at 2x cost, which i just so happen to own and approve of, how does my **** smell you peasant bastards.

S(whatever model) audis are great cars. Have fun.

ZionsWrath 10-25-2013 11:56 AM

lol, regardless of him owning both cars. The OP makes a compelling case, even if superficially (since I don't know anything about the S5)

What is funny, on my drive home from picking up my BRZ an S5 was the first car to try and goad me into a race. an hour after that a civic si with mods.

You have issues.

It was a tongue-in-cheek post. You chose to read it as bragging rather than seeing it for the poke at those who harp on the same things about the twins.

The "disclaimer" was to hopefully diffuse any issue from people taking it too seriously......

I'm at work, so no videos for me.
