BRZ intro @ Zandvoort Circuit Netherlands
Local distributor Subaru Benelux invited dealers, customers and other interested people for an introductory meeting with the new BRZ at the Zandvoort Circuit on April 19th and 20th. Both nights included various elements of a driver training course such as driving an ideal line and car control in wet conditions.
Unfortunately noone was allowed to test drive the BRZ themselves but to make up for that all participants got the opportunity to drive shotgun with a race driver in one of the two present BRZ's for a lap and a half across the circuit. Both cars were completely stock, street tires and all. They drove them like they stole'em and everyone was seriously impressed with the massive grip and cornering. Hard to believe a stock street car can go this fast on a circuit to Subaru Benelux for organizing this event |

Too bad our local boring distributor or dealers would never do something this cool for us.

Another car with the TC flickering on all the time - I guess he did not turn it off for some reason.
