Still big news! It will be good to see the finished product from Subaru and how it differs from Toyota.

Well... its technically a technology concept, whatever that means ~_~;

Turrible name is turrrrible.

So many jokes will be made because of the name, from bros, to bras, to brrrz.

As if Subarus didn't have enough of a bro image...

...Cool story, brz.*

Why the HELL wouldn't we get it here?
Because it's not AWD?
in that case even fkn better
Il import the subie for peanuts since it's not a competitor to any other subie, get it complied easily cus the frs will be complied cuz its the same car different badge, and the only people that loose is Subaru on potentially awesome sales cus their marketing director is a moron.
mwahahaha

Come on guys, get over it, it's only a name, no one gives a second thought about BRZ sounding like what not... It sounds sporty to me and I never thought about how it sound like bra, bro or whatever until you guys mentioned it.
To little info for so long... makes bored people turn a mouse into an elephant.

Yeah, thats exactly why according to Subaru Australia.

I love your way of thinking mate, especially if they do make an STI!

Radically ugly. Whose idea was this? And worse, who approved it?

SUB-FT86 · 08-23-2011, 08:08 AM

I hope it's a production model please!!

themish · 08-23-2011, 08:15 AM

Looks like im stuck with the scion version then

Neutral_Eyes · 08-23-2011, 08:23 AM

I would have gone for something from the pleiades, but BRZ isn't too bad - it reminds me of the boxer exhaust.

Edit: This is just the concept's name...

Not really, it looks normal, the logo of the Peugeot RCZ looks more Transformers-ish.

To bad the car is just another FWD, sports car wannabe.

I don't like the name that much either but shouldn't really care. Its just a name. It might grow on us over time. Whats important is the car is coming soon and it should be a great car.

bofa · 08-23-2011, 09:09 AM

The name is pretty fail imo. Who gets paid to think these things up? It won't deter me from considering the subie version but it certainly doesn't inspire. We knew the Scion name would be quirky... I expected better from Subaru.

Don't get your hopes up. They are showing the "BRZ PROLOGUE technology concept" in Frankfurt, according to the teaser. I think the first time we'll see the production version is at Tokyo Big Sight in December.

Hopefully the concept car will be representative of the final version!
