Why not a daily driver? Gotta work to get in & out of the car, seats not really all that comfortable, interior looks cheap, car is light weight & firm so you feel all the potholes & bumps.

My idea of a daily driver includes some comfort and fun to drive personality. The BRZ/FRS only has the latter.

I needa test drive. No one is keeping them in stock here in DFW. They are just filling in all the pre-orders, pretty much. I think dealers are trying to do a nissan and make you order a BRZ/FRS without a test drive...

Sounds like my guesstimation was right. Sounds like the perfect car for puerto rico.

Hard to say if the FR-S is better than (>) the 370z. 200 hp > 332 hp ?! No.

I think the car is meant for the 25 years old initial d fan who never saw the hochiroku new

It should have more grip. They put tiny tires on the brz to keep it fun.

I guess I need a test drive. I have been on the ft86 forum and found that the GT86 cost as much as the base model Z in US.

BRZ is so slow that you don't need to spend the $2K to beat it....

About a second slower than a JDM Gymkhana spec 370Z. Not bad for ~130hp less.
