How I drive my car.
I have a 2017 BRZ w/ performance pack (almost a ts). Unless you have driven this in the city or on a track, you have no idea how much fun this rig is. Handles like on rails. Holds the road like gorilla tape. Is it fast? If it was any faster, I would probably have wrapped myself around a telephone pole by now. One more thing, this buggy goes in and out of traffic like a go cart on steroids such that after 6 months of ownership, I have not even put on the radio yet. Too distracting. If I may quote my 14 year old grandson, “With a car like this, who needs an amusement park.”

I actually really like all the older gentlemen on this website sharing their thoughts about these cars. My dad has one too and he's 69.
Today I learned the hot new slang term "Buggy" to refer to a car, something I've never heard before. |
