I am abit ticked off at all the flame comments aimed at our car... its not ment for drag racing but then people love to bring out the numbers ahhh anyways dont know where else to show this or vent out Lmao...

The car itself is beautiful and drive is amazing and fun... people come to conclusions so quickly just cause it lacks power doesnt mean it loses the fun...

Shocking news.. drag racers are bashing a car that is not meant for drag racing.

That's like skaters bashing inlines.. or surfers bashing bodyboards.. or bmxers bashing mountain bikes.. metalheads bashing justin bieber. lol.

Just link them this. I'd say an 11.3 isn't too bad for an initial turbo kit for this car. Already have vendors going for more than 400 whp with twin scroll kits soon.

For the same reasons many BRZ/FRS owners bash other car models. Many examples of that on this forum when other cars are brought up.

Everyone simply has different tastes. I consider myself a true automotive enthusiast, and I generally like anything that has 4 wheels and an engine. However, there are plenty of styles that I am simply not a fan of: cars that are slammed, hellaflush, or jacked to the moon with 40"+ tires.

Most those guys just jelly.

ftc~brz · 03-01-2013, 06:18 PM

because opinions are like @$$holes, everyones got one and they all generally stink.

I get more questions and nice car comments vs. hate but my husband takes the brz out and gets negative bs like "nice tc".

don't sweat the hate just smile and know that the car is awesome, you're awesome, and most of the other 86ers are awesome too.

That guy spent all that money on a turbo, and didnt upgrade his tires!

sigh, i want some turbo action

LOL it's youtube comments. They're all 12 year olds. They'll blindly argue about anything. Their opinions don't matter.

zenki_levin · 03-02-2013, 03:12 PM

Most youtube comments are made by benchracing keyboard warriors. I've seen kids calling out a guy with a 900hp evo.

suaveflooder · 03-02-2013, 03:14 PM

simple....people don't understand that a sports car does not always mean "high horsepower"
