I'm saying it should be optional. With the tarbo WRX engine. Not a base Impreza engine. Well base model should still have the 2.0L NA engine.

And of course a turbocharged option will be $30k-$35k to start. But throw some fat tires and brakes on there, and that's a lot of car for the money.

I know. But I would rather buy a factory one with a warranty that I know was engineered right. Especially buying second had, I would never buy a car that was turbocharged by some random dude.

270hp is plenty for the street for daily driving. Especially when you factor in how fast a AWD+turbo car can accelerate (0-60 in 5sec)

At least it's 270HP now instead of 230HP like a couple years ago.

I still don't understand why the STI and Evo both sat right around 300HP for so many years. The STI really needs to be bumped up to 350HP. Especially because like you said, 2015, and mid-size family sedans with V6's have close to 300HP.

All that being said, 270HP in a small car isn't anything you can't have fun with. It will still move. 200HP in a smaller car around 3000lbs wll be fun. But the /o/ busriders don't understand that when they drool over 600HP supercars all day.

How often do you take your 86/BRZ to the toe-gay? How often does the average buyer?

The average 86/BRZ driver over in Australia is either a middle aged man, a swaggot, or a girl who used daddy's money on it instead of a Porsche.

>The only place a BRZ will outshine a WRX is literally a track by a second? Is your commute on a racetrack? Have you ever been to a track? How many times in the last year?

Exactly why I chose the BRZ

The WRX feels like a Toyota Corolla with extra drive wheels when you're not on a race track doing normal people speeds. Its too muted, only really fun when you're booking it like a mad man, the car is simply too fast for its own good. Unless my commute had me on a race track every time I wouldn't have fun driving the WRX unless I was trying to get a gold star at this year's treeolympics.

The BRZ is more approachable low speed fun. It reminds me of my old Miata that I could slide around the neighborhood without worrying I'm going to plant it square into a pole.

>>14014749
You're saying you'd rather drive the BRZ on the street over the WRX because its too boring?

Do you know how fun a turbo is on a commute? The WRX from 0-60 will beat most any car on the street thanks to turbo+AWD. The new motor makes boost at 2k so that powerband is 100% usable and FUN from 10mph all the way to 80mph. It's a blast in city or highway driving which is what most people do.

A 200hp N/A car is boring as fuck to commute in, the balance and handling of a BRZ is pointless when its in an urban environment.

Even in your BRZ on a twisty street you won't be losing a WRX anyway, AWD grip + turbo + low end torque you're gonna get rekt

WRX holds value way better than BRZ for a reason

>>14014902
Yeah. That's exactly what I'm saying. I'd rather get a BRZ I can rev out, weave through traffic in, and oversteer the occasional corner than a WRX where my choices are punch it in a straight line or corner retarded fast so it doesn't feel like I'm just driving normally. That's why I dislike the WRX. It's not a fun car to corner in unless you're going 8-9/10s (IE at a racetrack/closed course). It's either boring to drive or fun and you're going illegal speeds. Drive a Miata if you want to find out what kind of magic is a easy to approach car for low speed fun.

And why do you need 270hp to commute in? You're not on a race track. Most people commute with half the power/weight even a BRZ has. /o/ is the only place that thinks

>I need AT LEAST 400hp

To go to work.

WRXs hold value because they're a niche car, not many practical sporty AWD cars under $30k, even $50k. Simple as that. You could probably count them all on the market with one hand.

If downshifting puts you in the torque dip, just downshift again. The guy's retarded for not realizing that, although I don't know where downshifting at highway speed puts you RPM-wise.

I had a brz. Sold it because it was just far too tempting to drive insane at all moments of time. I'm lucky to have my license and/or be alive.
That being said, here's my 15k miles opinion of the Subaru BRZ

Great gas mileage. 30 combined.
Handled phenomenally at low and high speeds
Flashy as fuck, people constantly staring and taking pictures of your 25k car
Much faster than most cars on the road. I know this because many people tried to prove otherwise
Completely driver centered experience
great seating position

There was no drawback to having this car when I had it. The only issues I had were with the fact that it snows a lot where I live (it was a nightmare) and that I loved to test the limits.

That said, I'm back driving a Jeep Wrangler

Actually, the BRZ is a bit off when it comes to weight distribution. It's pigfat, terrible boxer 4 weighs a whooping 380lbs. Plus a 90lb transmission. For some odd reason they also chose to use an extremely long extended bell housing and shifter extension. That puts more than half of the engine in front of the axle. It's real weight distribution is closer to 55-45. This just proves that every advertising point on this car was a gimmick.

Not to mention, any tracked FI 86s struggle with oil starvation issues. The car was cheaply build on top of that.

One genius thing that Toyota did is capture the hearts of faggots like you.

You never owned one, no one is taking pictures of a cheap shitbox, and it's not fast in any sense of the meaning.

You're terrible at lies. Most people who will lie about owning a vehicle actually know facts about it, such as 0-60 times and such. Therefor we know you never owned one, because you'd never ever say it's fast.

I actually did own one, and now I do not. I was sick of driving a car that was all bark and no bite. It's such a poser car, looks fast but most minivans can beat it off the line. I found the whole experience depressing, and I'm glad it's gone. I ended up replacing it with a base model wrx, and let me tell you owning a quick car that looks slow is much nicer than driving a car that is all show and no go.

Ah good, somebody who also sees what the car actually looks like. That's more my point, I don't get why people complain about a six-second 0-60 for what's obviously not an exotic, especially in a car focused on handling.

And while it's not as low as cars of old, for 2015, the hoodline isn't bad at all.

They used a Series.Blue in that comparison. Which adds some trim package stuff and a couple aero bits.

Found the guy who can't into driving..

See that's why casuals just buy big hp v8s.. So they can take off at a set of lights and push in front of everyone in traffic. Then when it comes to corners they have no idea what they're doing and just brake to nearly a complete stop and then accelerate in their auto slushbox after the corner so late and slow that the slushbox has shifted back into 1st. Yet due to their high hp still manage to stay ahead of most.

This. Every brz/here in straya is driven by someone who knows nothing about cars.

Just the other day I was at the lights in my r33 gtr (this thing is not even running a regular rb26, it's packing the n1 version, just a little fun project) and I'm just casually driving when the brz owner keeps talking shit about my car being old and how it will lose in a drag. I humoured the faggot and won before my turbos even spooled.

Don't get me wrong, the car is good for what it does, it's a nice drift machine, but the idiots driving them are fucking deluded into thinking they're driving a car to the point they challenge a rb26 with more power than them STOCK.

They need more humility, desu. Respect other people's cars, unless you want to look like an idiot.

Out of state plates, they almost always ignore you. Ontop of that, they know a gtr can't be driven by p players and thus I'm not their main target. I also haven't put a ricer exhaust on, so it's only loud when I actually rev it and turbos spool.

At 2k revs it puts out enough power to daily drive so it's no problem.

The 2 highway patrols who pulled me over complimented me and let me off for 10k above after I was polite and showed them the goodies under the hood.

Well I bought this car recently and the wa plates seem to get it ignored.

In Vic plates I get pulled over more for rbt but I was honestly surprised this thing did not attract more attention than my merc.

Apparently r33 gtrs get left alone, but I'm sure it's the plates since they wouldn't want to defect someone on a holiday, so I've kept them on for now even though I have it ready to swap over to Vic plates.
