I am hoping the regular BRZs are mod friendly... we have a lot to look forward too

The American model with the KA was definitely a bit underpowered from the factory when compared to the Japanese model that had the SR and more so by todays engines, but it was still a very solid motor with a lot of potiential.

If I am not misunderstanding that article, it seems to be putting the nail in the coffin for a turbo model BRZ. At least for now. :(

It is pretty though. :happydance:

I like the stock wheels.

The BR-Z / FR-S look good as long as there's no giant wing attached to the rear of it. Power wise there's no problem because I don't race my daily drivers for a living like some apparently do surprisingly..

As long as its as fun to drive as the reviews say it is it should be good to go despite some folks obsession with numbers. For people who want to void their new car warranties right off the bat with all kinds of mods there are better choices obviously.

The BR-Z / FR-S appear to be designed for people who love to drive vs. for those with specific HP, 1/4 mile goals, etc. As an out of the box entry level RWD sports car it appears they hit it out of the park with the BR-Z / FR-S unless of course you're a numbers person.

the STI BRZ looks good. should we wait lol

:rolleyes:

STI version looks great

Heres the Toyota 86 TuRD version:



It looks really mean. Sounds really plain-Jane though. One exhaust tip per cylinder on an n/a engine :ugh2:

I'll be going with the regular BRZ I believe

sti has bigger capacity brakes. ok.

no, because we are changing everything up anyway.. might as well get a non-perfomance base.:tup:

So, this gets interesting. If they were to make a turbo STi version of the BR-Z, does the FR-S get the same treatment? We know STi's been around for a while for Subaru but TRD's been MIA for a while.

^^ No turbo for the BRZ STI -- from what I've read just a more powerful version of the flat 4.

:bowrofl:, ouch and the car's already starting at 25k. That thing better be a ton of fun to drive.

the STi Version is no difference power wise then the base model... :bowrofl::bowrofl:

Hmm, not what I heard -- these articles say they will bump the HP to 250

hrm... I dunno, the "STi" they revealed not to long ago didn't have anything special power wise.. but this new development could be neat
