Brilliant.. I can wait for my turn behind the wheel. My turn will be on the 29th of may in Yas Marina & Tetsuya Tada will be there..

The more I read positive reviews about the car, the more I cannot wait to see for myself..

That was the model you drove? Wasnt there any entry level models without the body kit there?

Looking at the poor sales of subaru here, the brz could be cheaper than 86, do you know when its going to be released ?

the auto was great for an "auto". shifts really quick with rev-match tech

Don't think the Sub would be any cheaper, it would be more exclusive tho

It is registered as a classic car there..

Plus the 86 have landed in Abu Dhabi at Yas Marina.. These are cars we will be test driving on the 29th of May. We also might get to do a drift session with the cars..
