That isn't very informative... seeing as that is a pretty large part of being a car ;-)

I just woke up from a dream where I was at a Subaru dealership and I saw the BRZ for sale so I got the keys for a test drive.

Lucky you. Have fun. Wish I had one close by. Back seat pics would be great. Maybe some nice pics of the leather seats?

Do you guys think they will transport this same car to other dealers in Cali, and then possibly other states from there?

I think this exact car will be in Dallas in Mid-March...

For the '12 Subaru Impreza, I know they did this nation wide tour with the new car. Dropped the car off at different dealers for 2-3 days so people could see it and sit in it. But you couldn't test drive it. Then SOA came and picked the car up and drove to the next dealership. Wonder if they will do something similar with the BRZ?

Just saw it in Irvine at the dealer. Sat in it and checked it out for about 15-20 min, it ''feels'' semi-luxurious, high quality materials. I positioned the drivers seat slightly closer to the steering wheel than what would be ideal for me (im 6' 1''), and, using the height adjuster, made the seat as high as it would go. I then got in the back seat and found that I had a decent amount of room. My feet were under the front seat and my knees were off to the side of the front seat. It was not comfortable but it was not unbearable either, could last perhaps an hour without hurting. All other 2+2's I've sat it have been far more uncomfortable and tight than this. Other than that the front seats felt good for a sports car but not as low to the ground as I would have imagined (but they are still low). The guy at the dealer said he took it for a spin (he got in trouble for that) and he said the ride was not jarring nor to soft either, he said it was ''medium'' for sports car. Sorry no pics. But go check it out they are pretty cool over there. He said no test drives though.
