Not that fast in a straight line. Course engine. Vague shifter. Slow steering rack. Low-quality interior. Weird seating position.

One of the magazines once described it as having the moves of a strong safety. I think that's a perfect description.

Solid buy given how cheap you can pick one up for. But easy choice keeping my FR-S over the 350z.


Exactly! On paper it sounds fantastic, but it doesn’t deliver really. The BRZ is the opposite, underwhelming on paper, but when you drive it it feels so right.
