lol

How are you getting Bras or Brass from BRZ? You're not supposed to sound out acronyms. Do the same to the FT86 and you get what, Feet Ate Sticks? Or the STi and you get Stye?

They BETTER come out with a turbocharged version, call it the Subaru BRT. The Subaru Be-Right-There.

Bee are zee

You can only use vowels from the pronunciation of the letters?

Subaru HORZ-GDi or SC-HOR would actually be a cool name

HORZ-GDi "Whores, God Dammit" Horizontally Opposed Rear Drive Zenith-Gas Direct Injection
SC-HOR "Score" Sport Coupe-Horizontally Opposed Rear Drive

Traum · 08-23-2011, 11:08 PM

hmm... Come to think of it, why didn't Subaru name the car "ORZ" to begin with?

You know? Orz?

hahahahah~

I would read that as "Whores, goody!"

waitaminit.... Zenith? are they trying to imply that this is as good as it's going to get and it can only go downhill from here?

I think people will call it "The Subaru Braz"

Fixed and agree. That was the first thing I was thinking of.

I'm thinking they're using it as an alternative word for 'Apex'.

I would have preferred 2000 RS, but I'm fine with BRZ, I guess. : /

Although, I think this reinforces the speculation that the STI version, supposing that it will even exist, will receive an N/A 2.5 and not a turbo. 2000 RS STI wouldn't make sense for a car with a 2.5 litre motor.

VenomRush · 08-23-2011, 11:59 PM

somebody check the patent files to see what they have as a registered trademark

celicajim · 08-24-2011, 12:41 AM

The STI model could be stroked and called a 22B-RZ...? lol

How about the Subaru Zenith B20 R? You have the name of the car, the engine, and drive. Zenith 2.0 Boxer engine Rear-wheel drive. The order of the last part can be changed (RB20, R20B, etc.)

Of course, if they offer a bigger engine in the future, that last part would change.
