Another new review claiming April 20 sale date.
http://www.autoweek.com/article/2012...IEWS/120329931 "When the BRZ goes on sale on April 20, two trim levels will be offered, Premium and Limited. Standard features on all models include a front strut tower brace, xenon headlights, touch-screen navigation system and satellite radio. Upgrading to the Limited version gains Alcantara seat inserts with leather bolsters, heated front seats and exterior mirrors, dual-zone climate controls, fog lights, keyless entry and push-button start." w00t!!!! |

Actually, SheWhoMustBeObeyedHawk is all on board. We saw the BRZ at a recent auto show, and she was making googoo eyes at it from across the floor before I even told her what it was.

98% of the forum is pretty convinced..we just need more magazine and internet reviews to get others interested in the car that arn't part of the forum.

But a ford Mustang is better value cuz...
MOAR POWERS!!!!!! skidpad/slalom numbers are pretty crazy for this car considering it lacks what lots of people believes it needs. This car seems like the non-exotic version of a Lotus Elise/Exige without the hefty comfort compromises. |

and MAOR cheap plastic and a live rear axle (which is pretty good in the latest S197 i must say, but it'll still twitch the rear out easily if you mash the accelerator down hard enough- i've done it).
