The BRZ is an excellent vehicle. It has it's weaknesses compared to the Z, just as the Z has its weaknesses compared to a Mustang 5.0, which is also an excellent vehicle. That's fine. However, saying the BRZ is a "rear wheel drive corolla" is pure fanboyism, much like the resulting circlejerk. |

You can't be politically correct all the time. Lighten up you will live longer. If anyone takes it that serious then I would begin to worry. We are talking about cars. If one doesn't suit your taste good news there are many to try that may tickle your fancy.

The GT86 is an overpriced car with a weak 4 banger engine. It has the crappiest interior I have ever witnessed. They purposely put low grip tires on it to raise the "thrill" factor. The only reason why it has gotten the attention that is has is because it is a "cheap" rear drive car with a "well sorted" suspension for the equipment that it comes with. A rarity in the modern age.
But that is also the problem. It really isn't that cheap. And what happens when you put real tires on it? All you end up having is a cheap car with a suspension that far outpaces its engine. There goes your fun factor. |

They eluded to it so many times during its development so I don't see what's wrong with calling it a corolla now.
