I would like the record to show that I wear my stereotypical Scion demographic on my sleeve. BRZ owners don't have to look down on me because I look down on myself.

In all seriousness though, has anyone actually received any flak from BRZ owners? I know a Subaru guy who trash talks the Scion but he's also generally accepted as an all-around douche and could never bring himself to buy a "slow" car like the BRZ or FR-S anyway. Can't we all just get along? For all intents and purposes, it's the same damn car!

Sorry, I didn't know I was in the FRS forum... Let me get myself and my high horse back where I belong! "BRZ Away!" Not trying to feed trolls between the FRS and BRZ... Same car! BUT, just like the rest of North American's I feel the chip on my shoulder of that damn Scion badge on the car. In the end though it is the same car getting crashed no matter what badge hits the pole first etc. I wasn't trying to say that anyone is inmature on either front except that I haven't saw the BRZ crashes reported on here as much that's all...

Every time I tell my dad, who works for Toyota, about these wrecks he always gets the biggest smile on his face and says, "We're going to sell a lot of replacement parts for this car." He doesn't have anything against them, nor does he enjoy the wrecks. He's just excited about more profit for Toyota >_>

I think its funny and entertaining reading these forums there are a handful of FRS owners that, insinuate that BRZ owners look down on them for whatever reason. Yet ive never seen a post or thread on the forums that said anything similar.

Same Team jerks!

Just due to the fact that less BRZ's are sold than FR-S makes it harder to find them crashed.

That navy blue one looks almost like the one used in the crash test video.

It really sucks for that silver BRZ.. the only tree within a good several hundred feet.. and he hits it dead on (unless that front damage was from the ditch grade).

Could've just been damaged and the body shop removed it in preparation for the new one.
