Motor Trend: The Road to Goodwood in a Subaru BRZ

The Road to Goodwood in a Subaru BRZ

Touring the English Countryside in Subaru's Sports Coupe

By Alex Nishimoto | Photos By Subaru | October 05, 2012

Motor Trend has driven the Subaru BRZ in its native Japan. We have one in our long-term test fleet, and the car just participated in our 2013 Car of the Year event. But despite all the wheel time we've had in Subaru's new sports coupe, when we received an offer from Subaru USA to romp around the U.K. in a BRZ on the way to the 2012 Goodwood Revival, we jumped at the opportunity. (Who wouldn't?) I was the lucky journalist who drew the long straw, and while the period-themed vintage racing event was the perfect cap-off, the road to Goodwood proved just as incredible as the final destination.

Goodwood is on the top 3 of my Bucket List. It sounds like the absolute best experience involving motorsport!

Sounds like a great way to spend a week, traveling around and enjoying the BRZ. How can you not love the handling of the BRZ and the roar of the engine when you save your shifts for 7k. God dammit I want to go for a drive now.
