Handling

Great RWD platform that handles just as good as it looks.
Weekend fun car that's capable of HDPE, canyon runs, and the late night milk run (that takes 4 hours to complete)

Granted some of that 4 hrs may be spent standing around the Blvd burger parking lot

What I love most is the looks and relative simplicity of it. It is a lightly powered blank slate with new age reliability for those of us that can't afford a 2 cars. It jumped off the "Need MOAR POWer!" mindset and is giving me a car I can actually learn in with less risk of killing myself like my sti I had before.

Before I would have said something like win a car show or get a feature somewhere, but my dream build for this car is a bit different that I don't think many will like. I'm a bit upset I was not born to experience the 80s car era, but luckily I feel this car has the lines to help me fill the void. Lol. So now I just want to build a car I can enjoy, and get to a point where i feel done. No chasing more power, more upgrades for upgrades sake. Just look at the car know it's perfect for me.

I'm the third person on this thread that came from more powerful WRXs to this car. I couldn't agree more with finch1750. Right now I'm into improving my driving skills via autocross and the BRZ that I couldn't imagine driving else right now. The car is just so pure and simple and yet it is so well integrated into my life.
Plus I really enjoy going to the car meets.

Steering feel
Just to be satified without the mod bug for a change, almost there!

The way people look at the car as if it's a 50,000$ car

Goal is to rocket bunny it I have been a fan with the kit from the start.

Fairly easy to control
Supercharge and make it last ~5+ years

What's your favorite thing about the FR-S/BRZ?
What are your automotive/car goals? Could be anything. Own a race car? Be featured on a magazine? Drive the 'ring? And why?

Anthony
Handling, rear slips. My accidental sideway.
Drive on backroads of California or else where. See and enjoy the views of places I drive to. Lastly, meet and perhaps make new friends along the way.
