When I first got the BRZ, it's power scared me, having only driven 80-90hp commuter cars before it. Like, I'm making nearly as much power at 3000rpm in the BRZ as those cars had period. 3 years later, I find the power to be a bit ho-hum so I can understand why auto journalists who frequently drive in 400+ hp monsters might not find it adequite. Still, I bought this car intending to grow into it and 3 years later, I'm still not able to make full use of the available power on track so I still have plenty of growing to do although I'm getting much closer. Once I feel that I've passed the cars abilities, I'll modify the car to continue to grow with me because to me, that's what this car is all about.

The only cure for these hacks doing terrible reviews of our cars is to step back and watch real pros like Tiff, Clarkson or Chris Harris drive a twin with a giant grin from ear to ear. The good guys "get it".
